Quite a succinct description of the Overton effect.Also, Reagan was an anti-capitalist Socialist. Apparently.
Of course, I was a wee one, but the whole "Nostalgic for Nixon" thing is pretty damn scary!
Nostalgia Editor Notes:In retrospect, the Nix was a pragmatic politician when he wasn't being a paranoid loon. Those were our salad days, but we certainly don't miss the bastard. Let alone Kissinger. (Who still lives why, again?)
