Nixon is owed an apology BIG time.


Nixon is like a kid stealing from the cookie jar compared to this group and King Barry.

Problem is those of us who lived through Nixons time, and saw the witch hunt are becoming fewer and fewer.

The Woodwards & Bernsteins who made their name of getting the dirt don’t exist in todays MSM or they just don’t want to admit that they had a big role in getting this type of corruption put into office.

I think many of the journalist cheerleaders are going to feel the pain personally later though.

It was not a witch hunt. Over sixty people eventually were convicted of felonies.

This is of interest:

From Article II of the Articles of Impeachment adopted by the House Judiciary Committee:

He [President Nixon] has, acting personally and through his subordinates and agents, endeavoured to obtain from the Internal Revenue Service, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, confidential information contained in income tax returns for purposed not authorized by law, and to cause, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, income tax audits or other income tax investigations to be initiated or conducted in a discriminatory manner.

Nixon was an unethical person who surrounded himself with similar people and paid the price for it. Everything that happened as a result of the Watergate investigation was well-deserved.
