If Falwell thinks that Trump "acts like one of us," I would love to know what the hell Falwell is doing.

I suspect a Jimmy-Swaggart scandal in his future.

So Falwell is an arrogant blowhard? Well, he is a university president so that would make sense.

Um Jerry Falwell is dead. That's Jerry Falwell, Jr.

So, Trump "acts like one of us?" Well, damn it, I'm two divorces and at least four affairs behind. Somebody find me a porn star!

Couldn't happen to a nicer dad.

Side note: she's 6'2" and I am totally okay with that.

Conan: Um Jerry Falwell is dead. That's Jerry Falwell, Jr.

Really??? Oh, my God!

Well, thank goodness we had a smart guy like you to tell us! Because as a gay man, I sure as hell wouldn't have known that someone who blamed gays for the destruction of the World Trade Center kicked off and has been dead for over a decade.

And you know, I only linked the Tweet to Jerry Falwell, Jr.'s account. But goddammit if I didn't pick the fact that it's Jerry Falwell, Jr., not his father.

And Ben (whom I regard as no better than you), I'm sure needed to be reminded that Jerry Falwell, Sr. is dead, since his son took over as University President since his father's death.

You know what? We need to build a monument to your brilliance, right now!

Seriously.

Because obviously, no one could have possibly known that Jerry Falwell, Sr. is dead had it not been for you telling us.

Hey, everyone! Jerry Falwell, Sr. is dead! I so would not have known that had it not been for Conan. Oh, thank you, Conan, for letting us know. Because the rest of us live in caves, never watch the news or anything like that.

Conan: Um Jerry Falwell is dead. That's Jerry Falwell, Jr.

Really??? Oh, my God!

Well, thank God you were around to tell us! Because I sure as hell wouldn't have known that the man who blamed gays (among others) for the destruction of the World Trade Center hasn't been dead for over a decade.

I mean, I only linked the tweet myself, but sure as hell I completely missed the fact that it was Jerry Falwell, Jr. I'm not kidding, I thought for sure that his father's rotting corpse had a Twitter account and wasn't sending out tweets with flies buzzing around his dessicated carcass!

And I'm sure Ben (whom I regard as no better than you, incidentally) sure as didn't know that either. It's not like Jerry Falwell, Jr. didn't become the University President upon the death of his father. Nope. I'm sure he thought that Jerry Falwell, Sr. was still the decomposing President of Liberty University!

Seriously. We need to build a monument to your colossal brilliance. Right now. Because, you know, the rest of us live in caves and never watch the news. So, we couldn't have possibly known that Jerry Falwell, Sr. is dead but your so graciously letting us know.

Hey, everyone! Jerry Falwell, Sr. is dead! You can thank Conan for letting us know!

(For the record, numbnuts, Jerry Falwell, Jr. is still quite properly referred to as "Falwell," as is anyone else with that name, regardless of whether they are a Jr., Sr. or whatever.)

Seriously. We need to build a monument to your colossal brilliance.

Sending you into histrionics is all the monument I need.

Wow, Patrick, for a guy who recently insisted, with your customary gentlemanly manners, that I never respond to his comments, you're awfully intrusive into mine.

Patrick, I do not keep up with the lives of figures on the religious right. As such, I did not know Jerry Falwell, Sr. had died; perhaps I had heard of his death, but had forgotten.

I was researching Falwell scandals to compare the comment that Trump "acts like us" to Falwell's multiple scandals, when lo to my surprise, it was not the noted reverend but the scion who had made the comment. Easier to keep the Grahams separate as the pere was Billy and the fil is Franklin.

And, yes, Jerry Falwell, Jr. is properly referred to as Jerry Falwell without the suffix, especially now that Sr. is dead. Tacking on the Jr., however, might help those of use who do not keep up with the Falwells and are not aware that it is the next generation that is making an ass of itself this time.

Personally, I had hoped that upon his death we might be rid of the name "Jerry Falwell" forever. 'tis not to be, I suppose.

By the way, if you're ever passing through or near Lynchburg, Virginia, take note of how many things are named after Falwell pere. You'll lose count in only a few miles.

My bad. I did not notice earlier that you had made the original comment about Falwell.

Don't feel bad Conan. I was just making a joke about how Falwell Jr here is probably just like Trump, an arrogant blowhard. So his comment was probably correct. Bad on me to not realize no one is allowed to comment on a Patrick link.
