16. The LBJ ad against Goldwater

Simple, short, devastating and effective. Goldwater whined about that being a cheap shot convincing people he would blast away that little girl without blinking in a nuclear war. But he created that opening with his tough talk at the GOP Convention. I am not sure if Goldwater would even have been stupid enough to keep us in Vietnam, but then he was an oddity as were all conservatives to the left of the John Birch society and the oil barons. Now they are a species in deep decline as the now extinct "liberal" Republicans- and the long extinct reform(when reform really meant progressive) Republicans who dissolved into the Bull Moose Party of 1912. Still, simpler times. Chaotic, dumbed down gibberish. Whites only noise. No one to bell the cat. War crimes and crimes against the Constitution galore.

I am burying my dear wife next week.
