"1960s style liberalism was never really tried."
Wait. What? You mean the Civil Rights Act(s), Voting Rights Act, War on Poverty, the Jobs Corp, VISTA, Food Stamps, Head Start, Medicare, Medicaid, the NEA and NEH, the Public Broadcasting Service and National Public Radio, the Urban Mass Transportation Act, the Endangered Species Protection Act and all the rest never really happened because of Vietnam? Man! No wonder the nation's lefties are so mad! Imagine discovering four decades later all the things they held dear didn't really exist. That must hurt. |
