Jeebus! I just realized I miss Spiro Agnew!

[Oeditpus Rex]

I'd welcome him back — or any other regular old crooked politician.

[Ron Green]

1. You Nattering Nabob of Negativism!

That guy could reel off an alliteration better than these modern crooks.

[Oeditpus Rex]

6. That line was what made me think of him

It popped into my head for some reason, and... well... :shrug:

2. I know the feeling. You KNOW it's bad when you start thinking

ol' Tricky Dick wasn't a half-bad president, for a Repuke.

AACCKKKK. Jesus wept!

[AlCzervik]

3. if he were alive i'm sure he'd be a consultant, shit they took all the old

DC criminals out of mothballs and brought them back, Baker, Negroponte, Admiral Poindexter and a whole host of other felons.

[agates]

4. Been feeling the same way.

Who'd ever think I'd have a tiny twinge of missing Nixon???

[BlooInBloo]

5. Wow. That's something you don't hear everyday. lol!

[JohnnyLib2]

7. Quick, somebody check on Haig

He may REALLY be in charge this time.

8. Spiro Who?

PLEASE NOTE: "Spiro Who?" was an actual campaign slogan, playing fun at Agnew's unusual last name and lack of familiarity with the national public. I am old enough to remember this absolutely useless bit of trivia. :)

Anybody else have a Nixon coloring book? "Here are his eyes. Color them shifty."

[Oeditpus Rex]

15. There was a similar slogan in an ad in '92

On teevee screens we simply saw, "President Quayle?"

And there was laughter in the background.

9. There's no conceivable situation to yearn for a lying, killer, thief...

arrogant elitist, republican hateful piece of shit like Spiro T Agnew...One sick motherfucker!

[karlrschneider]

10. He hasn't been seen since I uncoupled his railroad car

lo these many years ago.
:evilgrin:

[pitohui]

11. er why?

did that old crook ever do anything positive for anyone?

[njdemocrat106]

12. The Nixon bunch were evil scumbags...

but they also were evil geniuses compared to the evil dumbasses we got occupying the White House nowadays.

[TahitiNut]

13. I Miss Nixon

"I miss Nixon. Compared to these Nazis we have in the White House now, Richard Nixon was a flaming Liberal." - Hunter S. Thompson

[niyad]

14. did any of us EVER think that there would come a day when a

group of power-mad thugs would make nixon and his gang look better in comparison?

[LeftishBrit]

16. Only one reason to miss Agnew

He wasn't Dick Cheney.

[dbt]

17. I want to see bu$hler's upper lip sweat the way Nixxon's did!

The closer Tricky Dick got to the edge, the more sweat one could see on his upper lip. The night that Rather got in his face ("No sir, Mr. President. Are you?") that sucker was shining like a bag of new pennies!

:evilgrin:
