To: a fool in paradise

Nixon was a crook...

Bill Clinton was simply charming...

Barack Obama has brought us change... mostly dimes and nickles, and pennies...

Folks, Richard Nixon deserves the nation’s apology. For him to be treated like that for what he did, and the other two louts to have been completely ignored for what they did?

Nixon was a saint compared to these two.

Obama will have our nation on it’s knees by the end of his presidency. All hail the best president eva...

God this is depressing.

Nixon went after Alger Hiss and the Commie loving Left never forgave him.

Nixon's "crime" was trying to protect his underlings; he had no direct involvement in the Watergate break-in, only the coverup.

Compared to Clinton and Obama, his actions were downright honorable.

Nope. EPA, federalization of discrimination (AA), etc.

Blowing off the gold standard, wage and price controls, the EPA, NEPA, the Endangered Species. Clean Air, and Clean Water Acts...

Yeah, I'm feeling really conciliatory and forgiving.

Nixon was a saint compared to these two.

I caught a C-Span show of Woodward, Bernstein, and other WaPo people talking about Nixon/Watergate. And one thing Bernstein referred to was Nixon expressing resentment over the hostility he faced over the Alger Hiss case. And Bernstein actually pointed out that Nixon knew that Hiss was guilty, and “we didn’t know that and only found out with the release of the Venona transcripts.”

Well, Karl, a lot of people who didn’t have access to the Venona Secret, as it then was, knew that Hiss was guilty. You didn’t know that because you didn’t want to know it. And that is on you. You proclaimed, or insinuated, that it was on me for wanting to believe what in fact was true. It is on you. It is your failing, there is no excuse. You, and everyone else in your newsroom, who “didn’t know anyone who voted for Nixon.” You all owed Nixon an apology for that, but since he is long gone you all owe an apology to me, and everyone else who understood which way the wind was blowing.

Not that there is any chance that any of you will ever admit it - that would entail compromising your ability to run political interference, ever so objectively, for the next lying Democrat.
