I'm comparing you to an anal retentive racist voyeuristic homophobe. It's a tie.

I'm not sure what it was doing there, but I found a diamond in the gold mine. This is about your old boss and current existential threat, Killer Coal. I don't know what you did for the coal barons back then, but you are carrying their slop buckets now by posting the lies of a crazy blogger.

at one rally in West Virginia, Goldwater “called the War on Poverty ‘plainly and simply a war on your pocketbooks,’ a fraud because only ‘the vast resources of private business’ could produce the wealth to truly slay penury.” Perlstein singled out the tin-eared cruelty of this message: “In the land of the tar-paper shack, the gap-toothed smile, and the open sewer—where the ‘vast resources of private business’ were represented in the person of the coal barons who gave men black lung, then sent them off to die without pensions—the message just sounded perverse. As he left, lines of workmen jeered him.”...

...Goldwater didn’t win the South as a small-government libertarian, but rather as a racist.

They all became R's over the last 40 years.
