[Ragtime Cowgirl]

, I danced with Dean's "to be" wife at a party thrown by some Secret Service guys and she wanted me to go into the bathroom with her for some reason - I did not go!

Lol! Good decision. (^: Thanks for sharing your first-hand account. Two generations have grown up believing that Watergate was accurately depicted in "All the President's Men." When a few undeciphered seconds of Nixon tapes are released, the press salivates. I hope that you and others will document your experiences and leave them with honorable people for the sake of future generations. Somehow, I think they might get lost in the National Archives.

The story of the DNC call-girl ring, and Dean's fiance's pic being included with the call-girl photos in the DNC secretary's desk, didn't originate with G Gordon. He found out after reading someone else's well-researched and sourced book.

Chuck Colson, hearing about the same call-girl theory said that it made sense to him. He claimed that Nixon was a "square" and that if Nixon knew about Dean's "swinging" lifestyle, he'd be fired.

The story will come out some day. I do my teensy part. (^:

My understanding was that the gals at that party who were propositioning folks weren't really hookers - they were, in fact, ladies who worked at State Department at rather minor jobs but whose real mission was to provide comfort to certain foreign dignitaries.

Up until the days of Arthur Sommerfield, this job was performed by the Postmaster General's "secretarial pool" - you can see their "office" on the Third Floor of the Federal Triangle Post Office Building (a vignette to be included in my book, "The Secret History of the Post Office").

My impression was she worked for the State Department. That may have been a false story, of course.
