I know and understand that time. :-)
I may have been a child, but my mother was a news/political junky and made me one too.She made me watch the Army-McCathry the hearings, explaining it to me, so a small child could understand.Much later,I worked on both of Nixon's winning presidential campaigns.We all knew WHY the lefties hated Nixon.

Where are John Kerry's FBI files? Hillary is the logical place to start, isn't she?
To: areafiftyone
Oh, trust me on this one; you can count on it coming out. Probably not "soon" however. I'd wait until after he is officially nominated at the convention and then pull out the stops. Truth be known, they probably have a lot of "goods" on his weird wife that would be interesting. But, something like that would have to be leaked to the media.

One of the local sports disk jockies made a statement on his radio show today that there was a BOGUS picture of Kerry with Jane Fonda at an Anti War Rally being circulated on the Internet
I assume he is talking about the one that has been posted here numerous times
Anybody hear anything about this or any democrat effort to discredit it

They hated him because he was an honorable man. He made mistakes, but he was an honorable man.
To: international american
Nixon was a brilliant man. He was sacrificed my the Washington Post!
Nixon was a disaster for conservatives and his own ego set him up to be sandbagged by the Wash Post

The NBC TV coverage said clean-cut looking John O'Neill was recruited to debate Kerry on the Dick Cavett show. O'Neill was shown at the White House being given an "attaboy" pep talk by President Nixon, with other aides present. Colson appears to have been the point man. The TV coverage showed excerpts of the O'Neill-Kerry "debate." O'Neill took issue with Kerry's charges of war crimes on the part of U.S. soldiers.

I guess we agree to disagree.
To: international american
Agreed,no matter what the ill informed, so far right...they're left say.
To: nopardons
They were after Nixon, from the time he beat Helen G.Brown and they hated him for going after other damned pinkos, Fellow Travelers,and stinking Commies.Yeah you are right
I voted for Nixon BUT now I am convinced his going after the commies early in his career was just a means of obtaining publicity and getting elected in a GOP area and not motivated by any strong dislike of the commies that motivated Reagan
His and Kissinger's DETENTE was a disaster and his bringing Red China into the 20th century may still buites us severely in the future
In addition Nixon geared his 72 campaign entirely on his getting re-elected and copmpletely abandonned other GOP types up for re-election
If the democrats hadn't run McGovern a hell of a lot of conservatives would have stayed home

And when he goes WAY down in the polls the democrats can pull a NJ drop him and run Hillary with little time left for the GOP to rake her over the coals
SCOTUS will probably negate it and then we will again hear all about the SCOUTUS stealing the election for the GOP

I admire Nixon for several reasons. He grew up in a relatively poor family. He won a scholarship to Harvard, but his family could not support the balance. He graduated from college with honors, while working 30 hours a week to meet expenses. He went after the commies in Hollywood, and elsewhere. Yeah, he made mistakes, but I will tell you this, he never gave up on America, or the people! And he was a fighter till the day he died, just like my dad. An American original....where are they now??
To: forward
I sure don't think this made Kerry look good--just the opposite. You think this way because of the opinions you have already formed. The Left and many moderates will see it exactly the opposite way. They see Nixon as some sort of satan incarnate, and Kerry will gain stature in their eyes because Nixon labeled him.

In my graduating class...Newton, Mass. 1972, only 6 students voted for Nixon. I was one, and have no regrets! McGovern was a commie....and what is Kerry, aside from a sociopath.
To: international american
Yeah, he made mistakes, but I will tell you this, he never gave up on America, or the people! Well, I was just a kid then, but I fell for the media libel. All these years later, Nixon has grown in my mind. The thing that strikes me most is that Nixon could've fought the trial and probably won. His family and friends wanted him to fight. But Nixon didn't want to put the country through the agony of an impeachment trial.
Contrast this with Slick Willy. In some sick way, I actually think he enjoyed having the world focused on his private parts. He certainly had no qualms about putting America through that circus.
Above himself, Nixon loved America.
Above all else, Clinton loves himself.

Did you know Nixon personally? Have you ever read his books? Or are you just playing at being Miss Cleo?
FYI.........Richard Nixon was an avowed anti-Communist. He did NOT go after them,as you claim,to get himself elected. You have nothing at all to base your uneducated position on, but your own biased dislike (hatred?)of Nixon on.Hindsight may be 20/20, but in your case, it's more like 0/0 !
Did Nixon make mistakes? Of course he did. HE SHOULD HAVE BURNED THOSE DAMNED TAPES AND DUG HIS HEELS IN! But he was an honorable man.
You may not like some of the things he as president;neither do I.
Reagan has now been so mythologized,that I doubt you even know the truth/facts of his two terms as president.Reagan was a great president, but so far less of a Conservative, than the MORE CONSERVATIVE THAN THOUERS,here, would have the rest of believe.
Presidents "gear" their election/reelection campaigns to ( GASP, shock, oh the horror of it all ! ) win!
How good is your memory?How clearly do you remember those times?
I have a superior memory.I remember those days very clearly!
Don't post assumptions, suppositions,nor fantasies of your own imaginatgion. None of that holds up, when facts are so easy to find, that blows your musing out of the water.

Nixon was a fighter FOR America and a true anti-Communist fighter.
He was far from a perfect human beings,but there was much to admire about him.
He doesn't deserve his memory besmirched, by the delusional rantings and lies, made by a CINO.
