I'm old enough to remember the "third-rate burlary" called Watergate. Every channel ran the hearings around the clock. The story covered the front pages of every newspaper for months. Nixon resigned, others (including the Atty General) went to prison.

Nobody was murdered over Watergate.

It's a disgrace that the MSM has been covering up Fast and Furious, a scandal a thousand times worse than Watergate, with a body count of 200+ and climbing.

Travis, s G-d is my Witmess, when I listened to holder’s presser yesterday, it made me sick to my stomach. They named every agency that was involved in this so-called take-down and it was a mirror image of thoe that were involved in Fast and Furious...including the state department.
They even set up a phony connection to the zeta cartel, and used a FBI fop to pretend he was the cartel. The FBI transferred funds to this guy.
NOWHERE, NOWHERE do they prove an iranian connection to this.
It looks to me as though this is designd specifically to showcase these agencies as the ultimate good guys, while not giving ANY thought whatsoever to the repercussions it might cause in the ME, or else they WANT thse repercussions because the war that could ensue is almost Armageddon-like.
This is the most insanely corrupt administration on the face of the earth ever. Comparing this to a hitlerian scenario is becing too kind.
What they ALSO inadvertantly did was to credit the WH, which tells me that obama was up to his ears in F&F. AND that this admin would risk the entire ME to save his ass.
A war of this magnitude would completely destroy the whole rest of the world one way or another.

I disagree. At least 45 were killed [possibly more later] when E. Howard Hunt's wife Dorothy and CBS newswoman Michelle Clark, among others, died aboard United Flight 533 landing in, uh, Chicago.

But the lesson to be remembered from Watergate [during which congressional investigation one Hillary Rodham was a junior staffer] was that the coverup is worse than the underlying predicate crime, and the existance of the coverup indicates just how foul and egregious the entire matter is. What does that say when as you say, the underlying crime involves more than 200 murders- and the coverup is thereby worse than that.
