Watergate was a long time ago, Nixon refused to put the country, his country through a trial. Whatever Nixion was, he loved his country...something the Obama's don't, they believe and help keep alive myths about early America, Negro America.

There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true"......Soren Kierkegaard.

Keep the Obama;s out of politics, they play dirty.
