Nixon Dissed Aristotle

See if you can figure out what these guys were talking about:

Nixon: CBS came on with a movie. They had two magnificent handsome guys, and a stupid old fellow in it. They were glorifying homosexuality!

Ehrlichman: Was that a panel, sir?

Nixon: Hell no, it was a movie!

Haldeman: No, that’s a regular show, it’s on every week. And usually it’s just set in the guy’s home. It’s usually just that guy, who’s a hardhat.

Nixon: That’s right, he’s a hard hat.

Ehrlichman: And he always just looks like a slob.

Nixon: Looks like Jackie Gleason.

Haldeman: And then he has this hippie son-in-law. And, uh, usually the general trend of it is to downgrade him, and upgrade…

Nixon: Upgrade the hippie son-in-law.

Haldeman: Make the square hardhat to be bad.

Ehrlichman: What’s it called, I’ve never seen it.

Nixon: Archie is the guy’s name.

Ehrlichman: Now that’s real family entertainment, isn’t it?

Nixon: The point that I make is that goddamit, I do not think that you glorify, on public television, homosexuality! You ever see what happened, you know what happened to the Greeks? Homosexuality destroyed them. Aristotle was a homo, we all know that. So was Socrates.

Ehrlichman: But he never had the influence that television has.

Nixon: The last six Roman emperors were fags. You see, homosexuality, immorality in general, these are the enemies of strong societies. That’s why the communists and the left-wingers are pushing it. They’re trying to destroy us.

1. and Socrates

Ehrlichman (the eternal optimist) points out that at least those fags didn't have the power of the teevee to destroy society with their homo powers.

2. "All In The Family"

I watched "Our Nixon" last night on CNN.

Nixon on "All In The Family" and homosexuality:

7. Sammy would love on anybody, it seems.

4. CNN made a strange edit

after Ehrlichmann says "that's real family entertainment...", they cut out a part where Nixon says "I don't mind the homosexuality, I understand it", followed by a 14-second beep, which makes me very curious what they beeped out...

8. Hell, Nixon thought everybody was out to destroy him.

He's probably the biggest nutcase to ever occupy the Oval Office.
