An altogether solid exercise. You even worked Nixon into the cabal -- earning you an "A" grade in Advanced Conspiracy Theory.
My ideas about the Nixon presidency refect the hard cold facts.
The recent Fox News documentary about the conservative movement noted that conservatives did not get what they wanted from Nixon’s presidency that they supported.
When conservatives blasted Nixon and Henry Kissinger’s foreign policy in the documentary,
I was a groupie of sorts in the 70’s for the not liberal egotistical preacher whose radio station was ordered off the air by Nixon’s FCC using the Fairness Doctrine.
The preacher was on Nixon’s “enemies list” along with the lefties and long hairs.
Dr. Carl McIntire was leading protest marches of hundreds of thousands of people wanting to win the war in Vietnam instead of cutting a peace deal like Nixon and Kissinger did.
Heck, this preacher got a letter of apology from the man who was White House counsel for Nixon, Charles Colson. Colson wrote the letter from prison after his conversion to Christianity.
The GOP insiders have been hustling conservatives with rhetoric for years, but not delivering with consevative action from winning wars (Vietnam to Afghanistan) to cutting spending and the national debt.
I laugh sometimes realizing that while CNN was dubbed the “Clinton News Network” perhaps the Fox News Channel should be dubbed “Nixon’s Revenge.”
It is the Nixonian assualt on the liberal media all over again with the purpose of hustling conservatives into a RINO tent.
