Borgnine (RIP) on Politicians

09 Jul Posted by in News and Headlines | Comments

Ernest Borgnine, who died yesterday, said this in an interview in 1998 (h/t Justin Ptak):

I’m 81 years old and I like to speak my mind. As a legacy, on the day I die, I’d like to have a newspaper publish all the things that I find wrong in the United States today. And my first would be to get rid of the politicians.

(Fantle, David; Johnson, Tom. 25 Years of Celebrity Interviews from Vaudeville to Movies to TV, Reel to Real, Badger Books (2004) pp. 106–113)

It is no surprise that not a single newspaper complied with his wish yesterday.
