BS, and you know it, "Republican dirty tricks" libral/socialist slang goes back to Nixon.
No kidding - how astute of you to know that. Now if you could read for comprehension and know something a little more recent, you might get somewhere. Amazing your hypersensitivity to a nixon era phrase should blind you to the fact that H. Ross Perot used the phrase in describing what happened to him - probably because it was a well known nixon era phrase - my guess. Are you keeping up, or should I slow down and spoon feed it?
