[Olog-hai]

Uh-huh . . . the fellow who signed the EPA, OSHA and Amtrak into existence is still a “conservative” because the partisan libs want to paint him so.

[Lazamataz]

No lie. This guy was the ORIGINAL RINO.

[Steamburg]

If the Libtards were ever honest with themselves (Obese Chance); this simple iteration should scare them sufficiently to never trust anybody who would take your guns away.

[Andrei Bulba]

This is how stupid republicans are. Allow them to vilify Nixon, Bush, etc. But then let the liberal media cite Nixon as a republican supporter of gun control.

[Timber Rattler]

So this is supposed to be a liberal “back-at-ya” type of discovery, when everyone knows that Nixon was the original big government RINO?

[HerrBlucher]

Apparently Nixon’s anti commie schtick was just that, a gimmick. The only thing good about him is that he was HATED by liberals, as was Agnew. I think Spiro might have actually been conservative, he sure had lots of fun things to say about libs.

Uh-huh . . . the fellow who signed the EPA, OSHA and Amtrak into existence is still a “conservative” because the partisan libs want to paint him so.

And don't forget price and wage controls.

Conservative?!? Nixon? JFK was arguable more conservative than Nixon, especially on economic issues. But, quite frankly in the Post-FDR, Pre-Reagan years, there was no such thing as a conservative president, whether they had an R or a D next to their name, they were all “New Deal” progressives.

[nuconvert]

Why would it surprise anyone that a Quaker would be anti-gun?

[Dr. Sivana]

Oh .. and Harry Blackmun.

[Nextrush]

RIchard NixOn.

Indeed, Nixon was a Rockefeller Republican without the Rockefeller fortune.

He took Nelson Rockefeller’s foreign policy advisor, Dr. Henry Kissinger, into his administration.

Nixon said “we can’t run the world without China” and Dr. Kissinger set up the opening to China that was cemented by the Nixon visit to Beijing.

RINO-New World Order all the way-Richard M. Nixon.

He did have a grudge against the media and the liberal media returned the enmity in spades.

Nixon’s legacy lives on with his former media man Roger Ailes setting up a news channel to promote public support of a Nixon-RINO vision of the world. Fox News Channel is “Nixon’s revenge” on his former liberal media enemies.

[Fiji Hill]

Don’t blame me. I voted for Rep.John Ashbrook (R-Ohio) in the 1972 California primary and Rep. John Schmitz (R-Calif.) the American Independent Party candidate, in the general election.

[Revolting cat!]

Well, Nixon go it, din’t he? In Vietnam!

[ScottinVA]

So somehow the libs are making the Nixon-wanted-it argument to make their point? That’s not exactly a wise move. Ah, well... go for it libs... you’ve found another way to lose.

[plain talk]

This is good actually. Let the liberals jump on the Nixon bandwagon “see ... See ...Nixon was a Republican and he wanted to ban handguns ... See”. Then we say “right. Nixon did not have much use for the Constitution either. Sure you want to hold up Nixon as an example?””

[ScottinVA]

show a conservative president who at times appeared willing to take on the National Rifle Association

"Conservative" my a$$. RMN may have been somewhat right of center as Ike's VP, but as President? Oh, HELL no!

[Maceman]

Uh-huh . . . the fellow who signed the EPA, OSHA and Amtrak into existence is still a “conservative” because the partisan libs want to paint him so.

Don't forget his wage and price controls, either.

[TigersEye]

Are they quoting a paranoid control freak as their rationality for gun control?

[ryan71]

So, Nixon was another Republican that didn’t get it? Surprise!

[Secret Agent Man]

who cares what nixon thought? nixon was wrong on a great many things, that’s all that proves.

[SpaceBar]

show a conservative president ...

Richard Nixon wasn't a conservative by a longshot. He was a Republican. Dishonest journalists love to intentionally interchange the two terms.
