2. Goldwater before him

Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.

5. That's why they revere Reagan and never talk about Goldwater.

And it appears they are making their move to take it all. Having gotten control of the Supreme Court it just might work. Scary shit. Great Frank Zappa post. Thanks to all.

4. When the Orange Shitgibbon rots into dust, I hope they all rot with him.

Frank Zappa
“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”

8. Frank nails it. 😁
