If the Obama administration were doing the same things Nixon did (and they probably are, or worse), FReepers would be demanding their hides.
And rightly so.
Crimes are crimes, and wrong is wrong. I can’t understand those who are so blindly partisan that they are unable to admit what Nixon and his cronies did. It’s ridiculous to brush off his malfeasance by saying everyone does it. That doesn’t work as a teenager’s futile argument, and it certainly doesn’t work when applied to events of this magnitude.
May the crooked and evil Obama administration be brought to justice as was a crooked and evil administration 40 years ago.
(Wow. Has it really been that long?)
He is and you are comparing an actual current president running for reelection to one back in history.
Forty years of pretending that Watergate is breaking news and that Nixon is the most evil president in American history and using it to run cover for Carter, Clinton, and Obama, is enough.
