    . . . to Champion the Rights of the Transgendered. George "Mother" Machree is the focal point of SQUAD, as Mel Blanc reprises the silent movie role in which John "The Duck" Wayne created the tragic post-cutting Mother Machree character in the first version of this tale. Brandon Teena may have given Doby his sock, but when Marion Mitchell Morrison (as Wayne was known in his Machree Days) tried to anticipate Brando's total immersion holistic acting approach, the school dropout unfortunately mistook the term "Penectomy" for what we of the 21st Century would call a Brazilian Wax Job. Peeved at his untimely transformation from being a "Stand-up Guy" to Sir-Sits-with-the-Ladies, The Duck developed his distinctively androgynous trademark waddle and the infamous Chip-on-the-Shoulder, both on-the-screen and in Real Life. (At least Wayne did not found a counterpart to John Irving's Ellen James Society from THE WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP, since it's virtually certain Wayne's pal Ward Bond would have become a charter member of such a Buns Without Weenies group!) The Duck's Real Life deprivation was a cock and bull story Warner could not resist Looney Tuning. Though the squeamish MPAA American censors cut out all the graphic parts here is SQUAD, Porky Pig and Daffy Duck still get sentenced to 30 years each in the slammer for messing with Machree's missing member.
