Big Daddy

The HBO documentary on Goldwater is an interesting watch and worth checking out. Widely accepted as the "father of modern conservatism", the film leaves no doubt that he would have little use for today's post-modern version. He was a guy that didn't take any crap and it is a shame that most of his party has abandoned many of the ideas he championed. Some of the guys in the film like George Will just can't help but get under your skin though... I'd like to run into that guy in an elevator some time.
