Another post-stroke, mistake-riddled, rambling Crotty take on an issue few of you care about! But when's the last time you heard Thieu, Nixon, and Biden in the same rant.
OK. Small, small, small world. This to me sounds like Au Contraire - Biden pay attention! Then of course we have Richard Nixon on tape "I hope I outlive all those B------s". But yes there WAS this like - ya can't love 'im and ya can't hate 'im attitude towards LBJ's walking away from the election! I did love the LBJ as president. Thank you James.
I am always a bit uneasy about too easy or too cute historical comparisons, but Holy Hanoi, this is remarkably consistent: major piece of legislation passed (Great Society package; Inflation Reduction Act); controversial and increasingly unpopular war (Vietnam; Ukraine); civil unrest (1968 riots, assassinations, crime; the current epidemic of smash-and-grab, murder); drug abuse then and now. It goes on and on. But there is a key differentiator between then and now, which the pod unpacks. Though I could see why GOP would be giddy.
