This page was buried near the end of the previous (very long) post and I'm not sure how many people made all the way to the bottom. That's too bad because it's an interesting glimpse into the conservative mind of 1964.

That's one of the reasons we seek out old comic books and movies and TV and radio shows, because sometimes they can give us a truer, richer picture of what people really thought than we can get from any retrospective view.
