The Blood Feud That Launched the War on Drugs – POLITICO Magazine

Can’t help but giggle at the visual of Art Linkletter, in his little Orville Redenbacher bow tie, blowing a gasket in Nixon’s office. Just picturing his facing going purple, screaming out the names of various drugs, and his misinformation about them.

Little Old Sanctimonious Fucker blamed LSD for his daughters suicide… even though Coroner found nothing in her system…. No, couldn’t be that Linkletter wasn’t the perfect grandfather he portrayed on radio and TV. If Art Linkletter couldn’t keep his kifds from being depressed and neglected, who could?’

There we had it, Paranoid Nixon, and his hatred of the Hippies, and need to divert attention from his misdeeds, and Art Linkletter, with his blood lust for Dr Timothy Leary…….. who’s unholy congress gave birth to the War On Drugs……
