I’ve lived it and nearly died for it in Vietnam. President Nixon fought the treasonous Democrats though they eventually got rid of him but he kept the faith.

Any man who is hated by the Left is my buddy. Anybody who had imagination and the courage to defuze the Cold War while maintaining the pressure on the NVA, supported us.

And you think that founding OSHA and the EPA were bad things? You must not have worked in factory like I did, in the “good old days” with open pots of molten lead for fixing the bolts holding dies for the drop hamme (and idiots heating their lunches in them) open degreasing vats with powerful fumes of percholethylene giving you nonstop headaches and no one knows what cancers.

Grow up. You aren’t a “conservative” - you’re just a malcontent.

Both OSHA and the EPA were needed at the time. Still needed, but the trouble is they end up going from providing some degree of safety (for workers and the environment) to the over-the-top stuff we see now.

Such as the EPA now regulating carbon dioxide as a dangerous gas!

Nixon was good on Vietnam, but he was a Globalist. He advanced the satanic globalist agenda, and whoever does that will never, ever be supported by me.

OSHA and the EPA are Federal creatures that superseded Amendment 10 and abused the Necessary and Proper Clause (Just like most other Federal bureaucracies). The combination of FDR and Nixon made the Articles of Confederation attractive again.

Sorry about Vietnam, Nixon did have a big mess to clean up but that does not excuse his long-term destructive policies he unleashed.

Reagan difused the Cold War by ending it. Nixon use to call people like William F Buckley and Reagan nuts. He did stand up to the far left, athough more of those commie brats should have been shot at Kent State. One of my biggest heroes are the NY hardhats.
