*August 7, 1974 Senator Barry Goldwater (R) Arizona, Senate Minority Leader Hugh Scott(R) Pennsylvania and House Minority Leader John Rhodes (R) Arizona visited Richard Nixon and told him that support for him on the hill had evaporated. They did not ask him to resign. They did not speak of impeachment. The next day Richard Nixon resigned. Can you imagine today's gutless spineless Republicans visiting doofylucy and telling him the same thing? Paul Ryan, House Majority Leader or Mitch McConnell, Senate Majority Leader or any other Republican? What used to be is no longer. When, where and why Republicans became such timid mice or chickensh** scairdy cats (take your pick) I do not know. Do you?
