Lennon preferred Reagan over Carter

The Toronto Sun reported that John Lennon was a closet Republican at the end  of his life who was somewhat embarrassed at his naiveté in his younger days.  The news surfaced in a new documentary about Lennon and reveals that he would have voted for Ronald Reagan over Jimmy Carter.

While not verified it is rumored that before his death Lennon rewrote his famous song Imagine to reflect his maturing view of the world. 

Yoko Ono was meeting with her accountant to explore new Tax Shelters and was unavailable for comment. A spokesperson said Ono still strongly supports wealth redistribution to aid the disadvantaged  as long as it does not affect her.

Doubtful Competency has secured a document alleged to be penned by Lennon shortly before his death.

Imagine (Revised 1980)

 

Imagine there are no liberals

It’s easy if you try

Someday I hope they realize

It’s all just pie in the sky

Imagine all the people

Responsible for themselves

Imagine there’s no welfare

None for businesses too

No one we have to pay to

Do what they already do

Imagine all the people

Responsible for themselves

You may say I’m a demon

But I’m not the only one

We’re all just really tired of

Taking care of everyone.

Imagine your possessions

Your house, your boat, your car

Are not despised by someone

Who dislikes how rich you are

Imagine all the people

Keeping what they have

You may say that I’m a demon

But I’m not the only one

We’re all just really tired of

Taking care of everyone.
