And Watergate was a two-bit break-in of a second-tier hotel suite. Bo-ring.

I read elsewhere that someone on our side described F&F as "Watergate with Toe-Tags."

Clinton had at least half a dozen scandals worse than Watergate - no big deal.
Iran Contra was not only NOT a scandal, it was a great thing to do, fighting communists with Iranian money and all - and we are told it mars Reagan's Presidency.
George W. Bush had ZERO scandals. The press tried to fan things like firing U.S. attorneys (a perfectly legal thing to do, hell Bill Clinton fired them ALL)into a scandal.
Fast and Furious, to anyone with half a brain - certainly any red-blooded American jounalist hot for a good story - could conceivably top them all. Yet we get yawns from the press.

Does anyone detect a pattern?
