You brought back the memory of my Mom and I watching the Watergate hearings, throughout the summer of 1973.

My Mom was a great student of History and current events.

We had many a fine disussion that summer.

I stood up for Nixon, but she was for impeachment.

Kids off from school for the summer would do well to study more History:

Some very good questions, and good logic by Chaffetz.

Comey is struggling.

I remember that time as well. Many Americans who voted for/supported Nixon nonetheless were for impeachment as the rule of law was the more important principle.

Now it's not even as important as SNAP cards and free birth control.

I will never forget how livid my mom was about Nixon being driven from office.

She said one day history will look back and he will be deemed a good and honorable man.

Of course, she didn’t live to see how bad everything has been corrupted from the government to the historians to the media.

I have a problem with one party in the wrong, trying to correct another party in the wrong. The dems are the dirtiest and the most corrupt bunch of liars there is. I have a problem with the republicans caving... and letting them have their way. I wanted Nixon to fight it... just for that reason... that the dems had NO right to condemn him when they were worse dirty rotten scoundrels.

To me, John was a tattle tail and he sold out to try to save his hide.
