A speech on behalf of Barry Goldwater’s run for president in 1964.

Well, the trouble with our liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.

    They know the real truth behind the lies the Conservative Party is passing off as truth.

    Reagan was such a great orator.

    It’s funny that he starts off talking about government spending and debt. Funny because when he was president, he tripled the deficit. He managed to drive the gross national debt from 900 billion up to 3 trillion. For it’s time, that was a historic national record. It seems like those of us who value fiscal responsibility should probably stop idolizing him.
