    Meanwhile, his bona fides as a cowboy intimately familiar with the American West consist of pretending to be a cowboy in movies. Not that I don't sympathize with this point, but still.

    True. He's still a fucking misogynist.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Ol' Sam has spent a day or two in the saddle, though...

        He once said in an interview that he felt like the luckiest guy in the world because he got paid to do the best job in the world -- play cowboys in movies.

          Sam Elliott

          1. Has the most awesome mustache on the planet.
          2. Has the most awesome voice on the planet.
          3. He married Katharine Ross in 1984.

          'nuff said.

              Interesting, I wonder how Maron responded. Maron is as culturally left as they come. He even had his own show on Air America. But, he's not often political on his show.

              Education is extremely important.

                It’s a piece of shit movie as a /Western/.

                Have you seen it?

                  I saw it. I had to fast forward after a while, it was an art flick masquerading as a western.

                    I listened to the interview. The exchange was water off a duck's back. Even lefties can't predict when they'll be called upon to toe the line. I expect an apology from Maron in the monologue opening of his next episode.

                        It was completely nihilistic.
