Nixon was liberal on some fronts. I wouldn't call him the best president ever, but he was not soft on the commies and the left hated him for it. I think it goes back to Alger Hiss. I don't think Nixon was the beast that he was made out to be then and in the 30 or so years since. He did wrong and he decided to resign for the good of the country. There is no such morality or self examination on the left. To the left, there is only rationalization. Morality does not come into play.

Morality does not come into play.

 

Exactly! If it were, Bill Clinton would have stepped down for the sole reason of how he and his whole administration made the office of POTUS a laughing stock!

 

I would think the abuse of power he and the wicked witch of NY displayed in the White House certainly trumps anything Nixon did. What Nixon did was certainly not unique to his administration. The Clintoons turned it into a criminal enterprise and cash cow for their own personal benefit. Yet the MSM continues to look the other way and actually put them on a pedestal for hero worship. Truly disgusting!
