Well, he wasn’t all wrong.
Yeah but even a blind squirrel finds a nut

I once had sex with Eartha Kitt in an airplane bathroom. What? It came up organically.
It’s probably because of that one time Nixon had Cosby over for a sleepover.
We’ll… it wasn’t planned as a sleepover…
Barbra Streisand is on my enemy list too.
But not Cosby?
Both Bill and Bing, actually.
Ah yes, Bing Cosby. The search engine that rapes you.
As a person with very niche interests I have to say that I’d be okay with that.
Now that is one hell of a product tagline
My favorite is
Eat Wendys and poop like a regular man.
Nixon was a paranoid weirdo.
Definitely.
HACK MAN!
Hey… This is Moe Szyslak’s enemies list! They just deleted his name and put Nixon’s!
Possibly the origin of that joke.
And they took Barney’s name off!
That’s it, Nixon’s going on the list!
Eartha Kitt was on his list?! WTF did she do? I skimmed through her Wikipedia page, and the only thing I could see was that she was an activist in helping underprivileged inner city kids, and she called out politicians for not doing more to help them as part of that work.
Was Fred Rogers also on Nixon’s list?
Eartha once called out Lady Bird Johnson and nearly lost her career.
Fantastic share and a very interesting read. Lady Bird feels like the 60s version of Nancy Reagan. I need to read more about it. Thanks!
I don’t know the specifics of why Nixon thought Eartha Kitt was an 'enemy.
Nixon got his start as a Congressman on the House Un-American Activities Committee. He was doing the same thing as McCarthy was doing in the Senate, and as a California boy he was tuned into Hollywood.
Tony Randall, who played the prissy Felix Ungar on TV’s ‘The Odd Couple’ also made the list,
He said it was his proudest achievement
Bill Cosby should be on everyone’s enemy list
Not back then though.
Yes back then everyone SHOULD have had Bill Cosby on their enemy list! Yes his reputation was better but he still was a rapists back then.
Nobody knew that though. He was considered America’s Dad, and the revelation of his raping was very shocking.
Not back then when he was raping people but it was a secret?
Yes, it was a secret. He was considered America’s Dad back then. Everyone thought he was wholesome, and funny, and the best kind of dude. That’s why the revelation was so shocking.
Well yeah, kinda. Unless you think Nixon knew about that.
