Mickey Mouse was a gormless twit. Who wanted to be a gormless twit? Bugs, on the other hand, was his own rabbit, never took shit from anyone, was smart as hell and never at a loss for words. Messing with Bugs was a sure way to reach a bad end. I wanted so much to be just like Bugs when I was a kid, and even today.

I think my childhood admiration of Bugs was the reason I liked Groucho Marx so much when I discovered the Marx Bros. in my teen years. Bugs and Groucho were cut from the same cloth.

Pretty sure that Bugs was a Democrat.

Yosemite Sam was a Republican:




They haven't changed their plans one bit.

I loved it. But I don't remember ever seeing it after that, and I was a big fan of both the Bugs Bunny Show and the Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Hour.

In our area the "old cartoons" show when I was a kid was "My Backyard," hosted weekdays by local favorite Eddie Driscoll (who also hosted a total of 25 other shows throughout his long career http://www.gilleymedia.com/04/driscoll/default.asp )
