They realize people are sneering (or outright laughing) at the stale beyond-all-reason “Bush’s Fault!” meme. So now they’re trying to convince people that nothing compares to “the evil that was Nixon”.

I don’t think it’s working.

I saw some other commenters upthread remark about this Nixon thing being covered on some other Sunday shows, that I don’t get here in the swamps.

This is not a coinky-dink so I agree with you. The Nixon thing was probably something silly Valerie Jarret came up with...”Hey, let’s get Woodward and Bernstein to revive the Nixon thing, get the American public’s mind on just how evil the Republicans can be, take the heat off of us and our perfect plan to leak stuff to make us look good.”

Or to that effect.

Again, the commenters said after the article, over and over....AT LEAST NIXON RESIGNED. Nobody seemed to be buying the meme that Nixon was so horribly bad.

Somebody call the Republicans and have them use that talking point cause how damn evil could he be if he stepped up and resigned without prompt, compared to, just throwing it out there, CLINTON?

No one died in Watergate. Try convincing Brian Terry's family that the Nixon admin was more corrupt than Obama, big Sis, and Holder.
