Agnew had a way with words. I think I remember something along the lines of “an effete corps of impudent snobs” referring to the eastern liberal establishment. He also referred to some (or most?) of the anti war protestors as “brownshirts.” Sure would be fun to have another Agnew to piss off libs.

I think most of Agnew’s best-known lines were written by speechwriters (probably by William Safire).
