LOS ANGELES - Comedian George Carlin, a counter-culture hero famed for his routines about drugs and dirty words, died of heart failure at a Los Angeles-area hospital on Sunday, a spokesman said. He was 71.

Carlin, who had a history of heart and drug-dependency problems, died at Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica about 6 p.m. PDT after being admitted earlier in the afternoon for chest pains, spokesman Jeff Abraham told Reuters.

Known for his edgy, provocative material, Carlin achieved status as an anti-Establishment icon in the 1970s with stand-up bits full of drug references and a routine called “Seven Words You Can Never Say On Television.” A regulatory battle over a radio broadcast of the routine ultimately reached the U.S. Supreme Court.

RIP George Carlin


George Carlin was funny. I know he was anti-religious, but he did have some funny material. May God have mercy on his soul.

Do you have any idea how what you said comes accross?

Saying "I know he was anti-religious" and "May God have mercy on his soul" is so disrespectful of this intelligent and free-thinking man who'se sadly no longer with us.

Sigh.. you just can't leave it alone. You still judge those who don't believe harshly and hold it against them, even just after they've died you can't let up.

Just leave this dead man be and respect the fact he wasn't a believer in what he would call your 'invisible man in the sky'. Keep God out of his death. He wouldn't want it any other way. You SHOULD know this if you're familiar with him at all - which you obviously are.

Why hold it against him, even after death? What's wrong with you?

HAVE SOME RESPECT PLEASE.
