Listening to this is like eavesdropping on a group of old men at a donut shop on a Wednesday morning.

Interesting 14-second beep. Nixon says "I don't mind it, I understand the homosexuality" then BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP and then he says, "But nevertheless, the point that I make is that goddamn it you do not glorify it on television". The adversative "but nevertheless" shows that he was changing his stance after the beep, so probably his remark during the beep elaborates on how he understands homosexuality or why he doesn't mind it. Apparently, it must've been something thought worth redacting -- maybe a personal comment or experience related about it? Or maybe describing it in a too graphic way? Maybe probably he was naming somebody specific (as who he thought was gay) and it was redacted for privacy?

Mr. Fiorini and I went to see Frost/Nixon last night so this thread really caught my eye. The film was quite good by the way.
Nixon's last statement on the YouTube clip about how they will be better at running things than people from the left because they are honest is just incredible. I am always amazed at people's ability to believe their own lies, especially about themselves.
If you were a fly on the wall, you could hear some members of the GB say the same: even though our doctrines aren't always right and some of our prophecies didn't actually turn out to be true, we are God's chosen organization because we are more honest, sincere, accurate (take your pick) than "false religion."
