the former president had a gay affair

Bullshit.

also alleges that Nixon beat his wife

More bullshit.

This guy will do anything to sell his stupid book, specially that Nixon isn't around anymore to defend himself.

Here we go again! Some nut makes an accusation and the left will declare it doctrine to be believed, just like the silly story about J. Edgar Hoover being a crossdresser.

^ or the story about the president being a secret kenyan muslim.

The neighboring residences they shared in the Florida Keys gated community included Carlos Marchello's home, BeBe Rebozo's boss. Nixon spoke directly only to Rebozo and came calling whenever he needed money for secret political shit.

There is a mob connection here, but no reason to think it went beyond money and whatever political favor deserved in return.

Reagan was a porn star in the 50"s during his early years as a hollywood actor. But then most hollywood actors were in those days..

I need a brain bleaching after reading that headline.

Nixon was smokin' pole was he? It must be fun then, never imagined him trying it.

Maybe dicks are like fish tacos? Sounds gross until you sample one?

Alas, I may never know.

"Reagan was a porn star in the 50"s during his early years as a hollywood actor. But then most hollywood actors were in those days."

Except that Ronald Reagan's film career began nearly fifteen years earlier, in 1937, and that he was a fairly well-known sports announcer in Des Moines for a while before that. Once Reagan landed in Hollywood, he had an uncanny knack for making friends in high places, among them superagent Lew Wasserman.

In short, Reagan would never have done porn when he went into acting. The days of his great immorality were still ahead of him, when he wound down his Hollywood career and went into politics.

I defy you to find one single photo or frame enlargement from porn that is clearly Ronald Reagan, un-PhotoShopped. The guy was a nasty piece of work, but he didn't do porn.

P.S.: These insinuations of a gay affair between Nixon and Rebozo were afloat during the '70s. Insane that someone would turn them into a book at this late date.

My personal feeling is that Nixon might well have been closeted, but that he took it out in homophobia (for which he had a well-deserved reputation) rather than sucking dick on the sly.

2--And where are all the DR lefties declaring this "doctrine" (whatever that means)?

Nixon was a pretty fucked-up guy: paranoid and Machiavellian. What he did with his dick is irrelevant.

"Maybe dicks are like fish tacos?"

What an ignorance of biology you betray!

It's pussies that are more like fish tacos, fella.

"What he did with his dick is irrelevant."

And probably tricky.

"the former president had a gay affair"
Bullshit.

Uh, actually, they've been seen holding hands, when drunk Nixon would cuddle Bebe, he had a suite nearby, was given "immunity" from visitor records (now we see where that shit comes from and why), they vacationed together rather than with his wife Pat, uh, witnesses claim they were very affectionate.

I didn't believe it either, particularly considering Rebozo mafia connections, but was informed yesterday after the story was leaked it appears to be more than plausible. Politicians literally in bed with mafia bankers is entirely believable, and historically accurate.

"When a close aide to President Johnson was caught having sex with a former sailor in a YMCA bathroom, Nixon called the man "ill," and added that such people "cannot be in places of high trust." - wow, talk about projection. Icky Tricky Dick, indeed.

Can't see Nixon being gay in any sense of the word. Probably the rumor was started by somebody who failed a polygraph.

MaryTylerWhore You can get the detail from BobChapman.com

Reagan used the name "Gonzo" look it up.. Even Chuck Conners was in a few..The Rifleman...

I love fish tacos. Henry's Puffy Tacos on Bandera Road in San Antonio makes the best

"MaryTylerWhore You can get the detail from BobChapman.com"

First, I can't get a site by that name to come up.

Second, I'm aware of Chapman's accusations. I am not aware of any proof backing them up. I said PROOF, like the actual movie, not someone's description of it.

I don't think you have any idea how often this rumor surfaces about big stars, and how seldom it proves to be true. Reagan, Clark Gable, Joan Crawford and many others had this said about them. The ONLY time I have seen incontrovertible proof is with Marilyn Monroe, and that was merely a nude calendar shot (later licensed and printed by Playboy, in its premiere issue). That shot was boobs-only, not frontal, which is why 20th Century-Fox crossed its fingers and waited for public reaction (which was favorable) instead of firing her.

That calendar shot wasn't good enough for those wanting to trash Marilyn; a movie featuring a woman with a vague resemblance to her has been touted as a "Marilyn Monroe porn flick" for a long time.

It's beyond me why people think stars would do this. Hollywood is a very tight town; if you do porn, the legit studios find out about it and won't usually hire you. Only in very recent years has this barrier been relaxed a little bit. Even so, people like Traci Lords have found transitioning to legit stuff pretty tough sledding.

I need a brain bleaching after reading that headline.

I was temporarily struck blind by this story. Say it ain't so, Tricky Dick!

Dick Nixon was very close with fellow uber-commie hunter Roy Cohn during the McCarthy years. And as it later became well known, Cohn was big homo.

He was paranoid and mentally unstable, so the story fits. Totally possible, since all the prerequisites had already been met.

Why do lefties love to speculate on who's gay? It's a common theme with them.

Why do righties think that gay people are mentally ill (paranoid and mentally unstable in RiR's latest post)?

(Sorry, Goat. Couldn't help myself. If memory serves, you don't say that about gay people, only liberals. : ) )

gay people, only liberals

You are saying there is a difference?

Imagine that.

Hence the nick name...tricky dick!

So Dick Nixon before he dicks you was some serious shit.

I could only wish folks would have waited until I was long dead spreading lies about me

'You won't have Tricky's Dick's shit to push in anymore.'

Nixon and Rebozo were just clowning around.

It's pussies that are more like fish tacos, fella.

Please note it wasn't I who said that.

What kind of fish does Henry's use in their tacos Goat?

Never order fish tacos at Chevy's; useless you know in advance they use salmon, and you're expecting salmon.

Too fishy for me. Worst god damn thing I've ever tasted actually; other than Durian.

I put salmon tacos on that same yuck list as Durian.

Open one of these fucking "fruits", and you can smell it 3 blocks away. Stinks like something dead. But the fruit is pleasant, if you can get around the stench.

Must be something fabulous about dick though, Mary. Why else would Nixon sample it?

Just doesn't make any sense, knowing what I do about dicks and all. Why would Nixon do that?

Whitefish, I think

"Must be something fabulous about dick though, Mary."

You said it, I didn't.

"MaryTyler/// try this for Bob chapman website.."

You have got to be kidding. The only thing I got out of that visit was a sneaking suspicion that I've learned JeffnDenmark's true identity.

Mary can be quite brilliant. Good one.

Pure poetry.

Well worth falling on my sword to see!

Hmmm, Michelle keeps going on vacation by herself and Barack stays behind with a bunch of strong men. Yep, I pronounce Obama a pole smoker. Yep, he's always bowing to foreign men. Next thing ye know he gets on his knees and elbows.

(...okay, now somebody hurry up, type something, i might want to disappear up the thread some...just sayin'...)

I could explain his wife's demeanor. What is it with this pole smoking thing anyway?

Is it really that amazing? Perhaps blindfolded wearing chaps, it'd be different or something.

All bullshit aside, I remember Dick Nixon's friendship with Rebozo. And I remember how Rebozo stood by Nixon even when all the shit hit the fan. And I remember thinking that it was somehow fundamentally good that even when at his lowest point Nixon had a genuine friend with whom he could have a quiet dinner and put aside all the storm that was exploding around him. ... Memories from forty years ago.

26: Okay, that was funny.

But clearly you've never heard of Log Cabin Republicans.

Tosser appears to have a measure of respect for the old school American Leader ...hmmmm

AH... I Am Not A Homo... AH.... Crook

Tosser ain't really all that bad. I think they should take all of the decent Pakistanis like him, and form a new country.

Tosserkhastan sounds good, he could be their 1st ambassador. Goat could give him a room on the rig whenever he visits way-south Texas.

Memories from forty years ago.

Mod-Rat has been a free lawyer for a very long time... since the American Civil War, maybe. This is what a wasted life looks like.

This is probably BS. Gay people have an unyielding desire to "out" former Presidents. Remember the book about Lincoln being gay. Same ole bullshit

Here's Nixon showing off his ball cupping technique to David Frost.

#51 - I heard the same about George Washington. Another author made the claim.

EEEEUUUWWWWW!

Nixon held hands with lots of people, Look up Roy Acuff and Nixon holding hands during the Grand Ol Oprey. Look up Nixon bowling on YouTube, at the 1:20 mark Nixon is holding hands with a lady bowler. This is all bullshit. Read something about Nixon before you get on the slander bandwagon. Better yet Listen to the available tapes where Nixon and Rebozo talk on the phone privately. In these conversations its CLEAR that Nixon thought Rebozo was a ladies man, so if Rebozo was gay, apparently Nixon didn't even know it. Now grow up kiddies and stop spreading slander.
