30 Jun 2006Frank Zappa on Crossfire in 1986, from a forgotten age where a right-wing Republican administration was leading a sideshow persecution of pointless, stupid social issues to distract from egregious displays of imperial hubris abroad. Zappa mentions at point that we’re heading for a “fascist theocracy”. Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? Thank God we nipped that in the bud. Thanks to elthar for the link.
Yeah, that Tipper Gore sure was a stooge for the Reagan administration. As for egregious displays of imperial hubris abroad, to what do you refer? Operation El Dorado Canyon? Iran-Contra? New Coke? The sinking of a Greenpeace vessel by the French? Microsoft releasing Windows 1.0?
