Bye Bye, Merv

Mervallous Merv. I liked him. His show was the American Idol of its day, spotlighting up and coming performers. My friend Mary Susan, a wonderful singer, who never made it big and should have, had a spot on Merv in the 60s....

As to the rumors that Merv was family, I think its interesting to note his participation as one of the pallbearers for Reagan's funeral and his best friendship with Nancy.

How could Mr. Publicly anti-gay Ronnie have such respect and affection for a homo? Or even a bi-sexual? How could such a famous gay man be a staunch Republican? Crap. It happens all the time. I don't get it. I guess Merv didn't flaunt.

Sometimes I think that hatred I can deal with by labeling the haters as ignorant. Hypocrisy on the other hand is a despicable condition, having no saving grace at all. Bye Merv. I wish you had spoken up. And even donated some of your millions and millions to the cause....
