Agnew was genuinely funny, a lot of clever quips. My favorite was his comment about the Vice Presidency: “that rare opportunity in politics for a man to move from a potential unknown to an actual unknown.” One of Agnew's very Trump-apposite flaws was his passion for golf, which pissed Nixon off: "You’ve got to make it appear that the trip’s for work. Not over there on a goddamn vacation," - |

A lot of anti-Clinton outrage would have been spared if folks had paid more attention to Arkansas' reputation.
Truth be told, you probably couldn't look too deeply at the politics of a lot of states without becoming skeptical. |

IIRC, the majority of his barbs, particularly the "nattering nabobs of negativism" came from the pen of Pat Buchanan.

Very, very few Americans have this kind of family farm; ain't how you get rich today. I know some folks out here who do have family farms on valuable land, but there's a completely simple solution if they want to pass it on to future generations: you put an agricultural easement on the property, essentially give away the development rights to a charitable organization preserving farmland. Now instead of being valued as perhaps developable land, maybe $300K per acre or more if its someplace nice, its agricultural only land, rarely worth more than $10K an acre, more typically $2500 to $4K . . . you'd have to have an awful lot of agricultural land to have an estate tax problem. Their claim that this is an issue is BS. Last edited by deepsepia; October 4th, 2017 at 02:48 AM.. |

And the Rs are so utterly craven. Remember how folks like Mick Mulvaney would bloviate about Obama's deficits? Here's what he has to say now that he's Trump's Budget director Quote:

Payoffs are the only reason that the 'Reds' are trying to push this through - the reporters at the Journal should be ashamed of themselves.
