I was introduced to Mr. Skelton by my dad when I was 5 yrs old... spent many hours laughing at Junior the Mean Widdle Kid (who was famous for his expression, "I Dood It"), country boy Clem Kadiddlehopper, Sheriff Deadeye, boxer Cauliflower McPugg, drunkard Willy Lump-Lump, and con man San Fernando Red... all in front of a 17" B-W Admiral TV; And no, I won't forget those two wayward seagulls , Gertrude and Heathcliff... thanks dad!!
This video is from a later Red Skelton Special and truly strikes home to me... EVERY American needs to watch it and then send it on to all they know; we need to return to the greatness we've forgotten. As Red would always say at the end of every show, "...God Bless!"
