In the larger scheme of things, Watergate was a rather minor scandal, at least by Washington standards.
The liberals never forgave Richard Nixon for exposing their golden boy Alger Hiss. It was pay back.
Bob Dole was shocked that the Kansas delegation, to the 1996 Convention, unanimously saw Reagan as our role model.
Bob Dole insisted that we all visit the Nixon Library, and we did.
Wish I had the chance to go to the Reagan Library, as well, but I grudgingly must admit that the Nixon Library visit was interesting and worth that time, back then -—
Apparently, not anymore, with this lefty hack in charge!
My sympathy is with the Library here; Even Museums don’t preserve static displays forever.
If people only start finding books/evidence showing one view being showcased, then we have an issue. If however, we have the normal Academic/professional librarian, then don’t be surprised that he/she wants to make a splash bringing out different aspects of life other than the best known. They want to make their mark, not cling to the coat tails of their predecessors.
I’ve had significant professional dealing with University Libraries and professionals within them over the years. This isn’t political behaviour so much as Librarian behaviour. If it had been a static democrat display of such duration, they would have wished to changeit just as much.
Hm, interesting.
