That’s one difference.
Here’s another: the media cared about Watergate, and the reason they cared about it is because it offered a way to destroy a Repubican President.
This is obviously not the case with Fast and Furious.
Yep, a third rate burglary.
Worse than that, Nixon was en route to a 48 state annihilation of McGovern, so Watergate was as stupid and senseless as it was damaging. The only reason Carter was electable was because the public still wanted to punish the GOP over Watergate.
Just 100% senseless.
If you were around during Watergate, you will remember that the media claimed that someone did die in Watergate. E. Howard Hunt’s wife, Dorothy, was killed in a plane crash at the height of the investigation. Her purse contained in excess of $10,000 in cash, leading to conspiracy theories. No evidence though that the crash was anything but an accident. But the media portrayed it as a “death” attributable to Watergate.
The criminals in the old media aid and abet the criminals in the Democrat party all the time saying, “We didn’t kill those people or steal that money! We’re just covering for those other criminals that killed those people and stole that money.”
What most FReepers and conservatives are missing is this:
We only know about two murders (Terry & Zapata) due to firearms left at the scene.
We do not know how many murders of AMERICANS and US Law Enforcement officers were perpetrated and the firearms were not left at the scene for a trace.
There are over 2000 firearms in the hands of known murderers being used on nearly a daily basis to kill people.
The Mexican AG estimated over 200 Mexican citizens have been murdered by these firearms.
But we MUST keep making the point that more murders exist but just have not been linked.

Now if we can only get Boehner to say that fact along with the rest of the GOP~e.
