Nixon Tape Discusses Homosexuals at Bohemian Grove Prison Planet | March 26 2004 Nixon comments, "But it's not just the ratty part of town. The upper class in San Francisco is that way. The Bohemian Grove, which I attend from time to time . . . It is the most faggy goddamned thing you could ever imagine with that San Francisco crowd. I can't shake hands with anybody from San Francisco." See the Bohemian Grove archive for further research. Update: Full transcript from Harper's Magazine article ALL THE PHILOSOPHER KING'S MEN.(President Richard Nixon, John D. Ehrlichman, and H. R. Haldeman)(Brief Article) Harper's Magazine, Feb, 2000, by James Warren From a May 13, 1971, conversation among President Richard Nixon, John D. Ehrlichman, and H. R. Haldeman. On October 5, 1999, the National Archives made available to the public 445 hours of previously unreleased Oval Office tapes. The following dialogue was transcribed by Chicago Tribune reporter James Warren. RICHARD NIXON: We're going to [put] more of these little Negro bastards on the welfare rolls at $2,400 a family--let people like Pat Moynihan and [special consultant] Leonard Garment and others believe in all that crap. But I don't believe in it. Work, work--throw 'em off the rolls. That's the key. JOHN D. EHRLICHMAN: The key is Reagan's neutrality. If Reagan blasts this thing and says it's not strong enough on the work-requirement end, that will be very bad. NIXON: I have the greatest affection for them [blacks], but I know they're not going to make it for 500 years. They aren't. You know it, too. The Mexicans are a different cup of tea. They have a heritage. At the present time they steal, they're dishonest, but they do have some concept of family life. They don't live like a bunch of dogs, which the Negroes do live like. EHRLICHMAN: The Mexican American is not as good as the Mexican. You go down to Mexico--they're clean, they're honest, they're moral. NIXON: Mexico is a much more moral country. EHRLICHMAN: Monterrey, Cuernavaca. Go into slum areas, and by God they come out with clean shirts on a Sunday morning. NIXON: The church. You find a helluva lot less marijuana use in Mexico than the United States. EHRLICHMAN: The unions are actually a stronger force down there than the church. NIXON: For what? EHRLICHMAN: For conduct and social policy. NIXON: ... CBS ... glorifying homosexuality. EHRLICHMAN: A panel show? H. R. HALDEMAN: No, it's a regular show. It's on every week. It's usually just done in the guy's home. It's usually just that guy, who's a hard hat. NIXON: That's right; he's a hard hat. EHRLICHMAN: He always looks like a slob. NIXON: Looks like Jackie Gleason. HALDEMAN: He has this hippie son-in-law, and usually the general trend is to downgrade him and upgrade the son-in-law--make the square hard hat out to be bad. But a few weeks ago, they had one in which the guy, the son-in-law, wrote a letter to you, President Nixon, to raise hell about something. And the guy said, "You will not write that letter from my home!" Then said, "I'm going to write President Nixon," took off all those sloppy clothes, shaved, and went to his desk and got ready to write his letter to President Nixon. And apparently it was a good episode. EHRLICHMAN: What's it called? NIXON: "Archie's Guys." Archie is sitting here with his hippie son-in-law, married to the screwball daughter. The son-in-law apparently goes both ways. This guy. He's obviously queer--wears an ascot--but not offensively so. Very clever. Uses nice language. Shows pictures of his parents. And so Arch goes down to the bar. Sees his best friend, who used to play professional football. Virile, strong, this and that. Then the fairy comes into the bar. I don't mind the homosexuality. I understand it. Nevertheless, goddamn, I don't think you glorify it on public television, homosexuality, even more than you glorify whores. We all know we have weaknesses. But, goddammit, what do you think that does to kids? You know what happened to the Greeks! Homosexuality destroyed them. Sure, Aristotle was a homo. We all know that. So was Socrates. EHRLICHMAN: But he never had the influence television had. NIXON: You know what happened to the Romans? The last six Roman emperors were fags. Neither in a public way. You know what happened to the popes? They were layin' the nuns; that's been goin' on for years, centuries. But the Catholic Church went to hell three or four centuries ago. It was homosexual, and it had to be cleaned out. That's what's happened to Britain. It happened earlier to France. Let's look at the strong societies. The Russians. Goddamn, they root 'em out. They don't let 'em around at all. I don't know what they do with them. Look at this country. You think the Russians allow dope? Homosexuality, dope, immorality, are the enemies of strong societies. That's why the Communists and left-wingers are clinging to one another. They're trying to destroy us. I know Moynihan will disagree with this, [Attorney General John] Mitchell will, and Garment will. But, goddamn, we have to stand up to this. EHRLICHMAN: It's fatal liberality. NIXON: Huh? EHRLICHMAN: It's fatal liberality. And with its use on television, it has such leverage. NIXON: You know what's happened [in northern California]? EHRLICHMAN: San Francisco has just gone clear over. NIXON: But it's not just the ratty part of town. The upper class in San Francisco is that way. The Bohemian Grove, which I attend from time to time--it is the most faggy goddamned thing you could ever imagine, with that San Francisco crowd. I can't shake hands with anybody from San Francisco. Decorators. They got to do something. But we don't have to glorify it. You know one of the reasons fashions have made women look so terrible is because the goddamned designers hate women. Designers taking it out on the women. Now they're trying to get some more sexy things coming on again. EHRLICHMAN: Hot pants. NIXON: Jesus Christ. COPYRIGHT 2000 Harper's Magazine Foundation COPYRIGHT 2000 Gale Group

I love that line. I'm sure W and Poppy think the Grove is just fabulous. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
When it involves children it is. futureofthewhirled.com/node/947 www.aidd.org/societies/bohclub.htm Franklin Coverup: Snuff Kiddie Porn at Bohemian Grove 'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Sounds all right to me.
Thats true...didn't mean to make light. Just like to remind folks that the decider may be a poofter. ( and his daddy to )
You made a good point, what consenting adults do is their business. I just wanted to remind us all that they are truly evil.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' I always thought it was strange that many druggies and gays were anti-American and pro-VietCong, pro-Soviet, and pro-Castro in the 1960's, when they had a hell of a lot more right to be what they wanted to be and do what they wanted to do in the US than in any Communist country.
Freedom fries forever.
