compare 2012 Republican candidates - 1964; the crazy and lack of compassion live on
I have been going through some political memorabilia that my mom saved for us kids going back to 1964 (my first election campaign at 12 years of age). Note the similarities: lack of compassion, lack of reality, equating government with whoever the want to blow up
here are the Goldwater quotes - insert any one of the 2012 Republican field:
"I don't want to hit the moon -- I want to lob one into the men's room of the Kremlin and make sure I hit it" - B.G.
"I fear Washington and centralized government more than I do Moscow" - B.G.
"The child has no right to an education. In most cases the children get along well without it." - B.G.
""I don't give a tinkers dam what the rest of the world thinks about the United States ..." - B.G.
"Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice ..." - B.G.
"... most people who have no skill, have no education for the same reason -- low intelligence or low ambition." - B.G.
