Are you thinking Alan Alda?

I just saw Arkin with Peter Falk in the In Laws. Classic great movie and a perfect role both both the main characters!!

This is Alan Arkin: Catch 22 was his greatest performance. Then there is this:

“The more you can increase fear of drugs, crime, welfare mothers, immigrants and aliens, the more you control all of the people.”
― Noam Chomsky

GW might be confusing Arkin with Alda or perhaps even with Allan Arbus, who bore a resemblance to Arkin and who also guest-starred in some M*A*S*H episodes as the psychologist Sidney Freedman.

Or maybe Alan Alda's half-brother Antony Alda, who appeared on one episode of M*A*S*H in 1980.
