It must be said in Richard M. Nixon's defense, that during his tenure he came to his senses and went to a mohel to be circumcised.
The result was a failure, because apparently there was no end to the schmuck!
MarZutra:
Very good Massuh. I'm reading Barry Goldwater's memoirs now "With No apologies". He'd have made a good president.

Great man.
What do you think of his public position that the military should accept openly all homosexuals without question?
MarZutra:
To be quite honest, I had never heard that. It seems as though, from reading his memoirs in the 1970's he was very accurate during his career during the 1960's but, as I understand, he as well...took a turn for the Left.... Some things I disagree with but for the most part I agree with is basic, low taxes, small government, strong military and freedom....... Perhaps, I should reword my position that He'd have made a great President in 1964...LOL
Then again, if Homosexuals were openly allowed into the Military there could have been a front line infantry division carrying piece and rainbow flags into the Iraq War instead of guns.... That would end America's Homosexual addition to the military.... ;) Perhaps the Military would leave them there in sand where they belong....

Re: Marzutra/Barry Goldwater
It was during the Clinton years when the formulation "Don't ask; don't Tell" was concocted for the military to allow homosexual enlistment.
Goldwater's reasoning was on pure Constitutional grounds.
He claimed that all the "hubbub" was nothing but hypocrisy & political grandstanding, and said that homosexuals had always served within our military, and that most everybody knew that was the case.
His point was that anyone desiring to serve the United States in uniform should be allowed the same considerations as everyone else choosing the service.
I don't believe that he intended anything other than their being allowed to serve.
To my knowledge, Goldwater never publicly discussed the "sticky" details, such as how "openly gay" they be allowed in their behaviors.
