Here’s the real lesson of Watergate:
In 1972, Richard Nixon got 520 electoral votes and 60.7% of the popular votes. Despite this enormous victory, the Democrats determined to get rid of him and overturn the results of the election.
From that moment, everything they said, everything they did, was focused like a laser on their desired result. They knew what they were doing, they did it, and they won.
I can see in 2050 somebody writing the same thing about Obama.....I hope that we improve over time but I don’t have much faith in that we will.
Then there was the illegal gun-running operation that cost a border agent his life. Nixon also slept through an attack on American embassy, then perpetuated a cover story for months, misleading the victim's families and the American people. And then there was the collection of everyone's phone calls by the NSA. That Nixon was a real monster.
The writer is incorrect as to the why of the break in.
The VVAW had deep ties to the democrat party and it’s leadership. The VVAW was betraying our country by passing on military secrets to the NVC.
They had made plans and formed a squad to murder 20 US Senators (R) that supported the war, planned to bomb government building and even sieze them. Two members of the VVAW were arrested in route to an Agnew speech with “BOMBS” in their cars. It appeared that the DNC and the VAWW may have been planning a coup.
