I wanted to beat Ann Coulter the other day with my Clue Stick when she was on Glenn Beck's Radio program, lamenting Goldwater's "Principled Stance" on opposing the 1964 Civil Rights acts, which cost him the election!

From what I've heard, she's either lying or stupid when she speaks of Goldwater's stance on the civil rights act. The reality is that Goldwater was probably OK with civil rights act until it became infected with crap that began to target private businesses and other personal rights.

If I recall Correctly.

And I think I do!

Goldwater supported the 1957 Civil Rights Act and Lyndon Johnson helped to water down and Kill it in the Senate.
