I’ve learned to never trust Hollywood history. A Nixon aide who was at the actual interview said it did not happen the way it was portrayed. Another Nixon-bashing movie. Yawn. I used to despise Nixon during the Watergate hearings, but after growing up and doing my own research, I realize now that the Left destroyed him and his presidency. Nixon was a complex and brilliant man. As a prosecutor he helped convict Alger Hiss, which was unforgivable to the Left. He was blamed for Vietnam, which was a Kennedy/Johnson war. He was determined to win the war, but the Left was determined to lose it. “Journalist” Carl Bernstein was a red diaper baby, whose agenda was to topple President Nixon and Watergate served that purpose. He has since been exposed as a hack who writes fiction to gin up a story. I highly recommend “Silent Coup” by G. Gordon Liddy, who tells a very different version of the story. Nixon made mistakes but the entire Watergate saga was way overplayed. In the process the Left succeeded in toppling Nixon, making the US lose in Vietnam (wasn’t that the real purpose?), and generally wreaking havoc on our country. That was their greatest victory until Obama. It’s a shame Ron Howard feels a need to spit on Nixon’s grave. He’s becoming another Oliver Stone.

I’m with you, Rodney. I’ve loved Ron Howard for years and have enjoyed his movies with an almost sisterly pride because I grew up with Ron Howard. It’s just too bad that movie makers have to start getting political, because I truly enjoy going to movies. I don’t go to that many any longer because I don’t want their liberal propaganda shoved down my throat. They have their freedom of speech to make whatever they want, but we have the perogative to use our purse strings to decide whether we want to support their speech or not. That’s our freedom of speech. That’s the way of the world and as it should be.

Thank God for this site because the best way to combat speech you don’t agree with is through more freedom of speech. That’s the American way.

I indeed have seen Frost/Nixon and will continue watching Andy Griffith loyally as ever, along with daily viewings of films and TV shows written, produced, directed and acted in by any number of folks I vehemently disagree with politically. My post was not an argument, but satire.

Read thee again, and try to getteth the point this time. thanketh thee.

Mr. Conover,

If you’re gonna stop viewing TV shows and movies made by artists who have political views you disagree with you’ll most likely need to eschew a whole slew of favorites from your precious childhood. And the intelligence of your argument–if it can be called that–begins to take on water as one attempts to wade through your clunky prose. Get thee to a copy editor, good sir!

Dang that cut n’ paste! Shoulda’ said:

OK, maybe that analogy was a little over the top. But it was just as accurate and sensible as Howard’s recent Obama ad.

Seems there may be a track record here…

According to reviews and personal accounts given to me, Ron Howard chose to portray Max Baer as something of a monster in “Cinderella Man.” Artistic license is one thing, but to portray a once living person — with living descendants — dishonestly to put more money in his pocket does not set right with me.

Maybe Ron Howard can look forward to someone portraying him as a satan worshiping, cannibal, necrophiliac for his grand children’s viewing enjoyment in 50 years.

OK, maybe that analogy was a little over the top. But it was just as accurate and sensible as Howard’s Obama recent ad.

Unfortunately, he and Andy forever tore my fond memories from my heart when they did the Obama ad together…Ron AND Andy made me cry.
