At a Boston Red Sox game in 1973, with Bill "Spaceman" Lee on the mound, Richard Nixon caught a foul ball. Barely able to mask his disgust, he threw the ball back onto the field, muttering that he "didn't want a souvenir that had been handled by a fucking communist."

Though he spoke glowingly of Haile Selassie at the state dinner, Nixon's duplicitous nature was later revealed and recorded by the White House taping system. A portion of the recording was worked into a song by Propagandhi, and provided the title 'Haile Selassie, Up Your Ass.'

Though some artistic license was taken, Richard Nixon's resignation speech was the inspiration for the closing scene of Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Said Nixon, "I now know why you cry. But it is something that I can never do. Goodbye."

Among the many benefits that assuming the Presidency conveyed, Nixon believed that the ultimate was "not having to smoke that goddamn Mexican ditch weed anymore."
