No It was a crime pure and simple. Just because the other side engages in it, or worse, is irrelevant. Nixon committed various crimes and rightly resigned. I was quite a Nixon admirer back in the day and worked on his campaign and still feel as I did in ‘73.
BOTH sides of the aisle felt this way about him. If we overlook the criminals in our own home then we have zero moral authority.
I don’t defend Nixon’s actions (which were criminal). Obama has engaged in same and worse.
“No It was a crime pure and simple. Just because the other side engages in it, or worse, is irrelevant. “
You are aware that just prior to the Watergate breakin, the democrats raided a republican place out west and stole papers related to the retrieval attempt of a Russian submarine?
“If we overlook the criminals in our own home then we have zero moral authority.”
Well, OK, I can agree with that, but how do we solve a problem like Obama (apologies to Rogers & Hammerstien)?
I wish I could do a big parody song here, and maybe someday I will, but never mind that now.
The press covers for him, he’s got real dead bodies on his head, and nothing happens.
Not to mention that [every bad word in the book] Lois Lerner.
These people make Nixon look like an amateur, forget Kennedy and Clinton, the whore mongers, that’s really bad but not a threat to the nation.
Nixon’s name is MUD; many still see this nincompoop Obama as a “light bringer”.
What do we do about that?
