2. Pat Buttram was Republican, too.

Buttram was a staunch Republican who helped Ronald W. Reagan spice up his speeches with political quips.[1] In 1993, Buttram expressed surprise that with the inauguration of Bill Clinton and Al Gore as US President and Vice President, respectively, so many Hollywood actors were "taken with that whole country-boy image they tried to project." According to his niece, Mary Buttram Young of Sheffield, Alabama, "Uncle Pat would always say, 'I'm from Alabama - I can see right through that'."

5. Hahah! Not surprised to find out Reagan got his 'yokalisms' straight from CENTRAL CASTING.

And most of his speeches were about as deep and inspiring as an episode of Green Acres. Suddenly it all makes sense.

Thanks for the info.

3. Now that you bring up Mr. Haney...

I can't help but see him as a hybrid of Mr. Haney AND Joe McCarthy!

6. Exactly. But instead of reading a list of suspected communists hiding in the State Department

THIS snake-oil salesman reads a list of people who've eaten Green Eggs and Ham, and therefore can no longer be trusted.

7. I know you're right!

I would identify him as the sleazy one but they ALL fit that description. And I bet he counts how many of them actually go to church every Sunday... another reason he can't trust many of them.
