“This is one of the troubles that the liberals get into. They become so doctrinaire, so conformist that if you don’t fit their little mold right down to your little pinkies, you’re no liberal and I don’t want to see the conservatives ever get in that fix.”
Barry Goldwater – 1966

Yes it does! But my question is, was he referring to Vietnam.
Also, “right down to your little pinkies”? Nice cognitive suggestion there, Senator.
To your question, I don’t think he was.
Yes, he said pinkies although I have a hard time reading more into it than as an anatomical reference. That’s just me though.

Okay. I’m just being annoying. I should be working on research guide anyway.

Ah, got it. No worries. If I knew you a little better and understood that, I’d have come back with something a little less serious a little more tongue-in-cheek. My bad.
