I sat as a kid...watching the WaterGate hearings. At the end of the whole thing...my take was that a couple of guys broke into the Democratic office there at the WaterGate building, and that was mostly it. To pre-empt TV shows in the afternoon and carry this live across the nation...was silly and ridiculous. This was all a case that should have gone to some DC local courtroom. Obviously, I must have misunderstood the whole thing.

And I’ll add this...it has amazed ever since the hearings....that you can have Senators sitting around and acting like Judge and Jury.

Unlike Watergate, a third-rate burglary where nobody died, over 300 people were murdered by guns our own DOJ sent to Mexican killer cartels.

And the MSM (American Pravda) helps to sweep it under the rug.

There is a line in the movie Network, where a reporter is calling into the ‘newsreader’ giving information regarding the type of plane the US had used to intercept a middle eastern plane. His response, “Wow, I can say it here and they report it there as fact”.

The media at the time was orgasmic with the fact they could blow anything up to these proportions and literally stop a US President in his tracts all the while swaying the population into regarding every Republican as a “crook”. Hell, they’re still playing that old handbook. Guess it still works. But many are on to them!

I get so, so tired of hearing this bullsh!t over and over and over again. As they tell it, more specifically, Woodward, they felt such awe and solemnity blah, blah, blah at the prospect that their work might actually end up in, gasp!, the ousting of a President! Their integrity, respect for the process and the concept of true unbiased reporting, blah blah blah. I could puke!

A couple of self-serving, self-agrandizing, operatives who succeeded in making an Everest out of a turd pile.

In the grand scheme of things, the Watergate hype, is chickenfeed when compared with Clinton, and worse yet, Obama and Holder's treason. Yet, the media, as with the myth of the Kennedy Camelot, persist in idolizing something with no apparent substance because the sabotage worked.

Not silly to the opposition. Their goal was to destroy a Republican president and harm the Republican brand. That's all.

Meanwhile, Murdergate (Fast and Furious) goes ignored and Eric Holder defiantly throws his finger at the public and Congress.
