#1 "In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex."

~ President Eisenhower's farewell address, 17 Jan 1961.

#3 I have said this for years. I would always say it was a war between Nixon and the Post(the post being a tool). I agree with two spooks we had here on this site, "our government is capable of anything". My information regarding the Kennedy's was limited but could easily be true. I remember in DC the Jewish people I met truly disliked the "peanut farmer" Carter.

#4 Conspiracy grows best when slowly fed small portions, digested by history.

One of the actual plumbers, a telco-tech, once worked for me.

#5 Whatever Nixon did, he was a Boy Scout compared to the likes of JFK, Lyndon Johnson, Bill Clinton, Baraq Obama and Joe Biden. Might as well include John Brennan and Christopher Wray in that bunch. All those Democrat politicians had the intel community watching their backs instead of stabbing them in the back like they did Nixon, otherwise they would have gone down even harder than Nixon. No scruples will ever be found among them.

#6 ...I've always wondered how much of the Dem hatred for Nixon came from the fact that after 1960, he wasn't supposed to come back - he had been defeated by the demigod JFK, who put them back into their rightful place in the White House (20 years straight from FDR to Truman's last term may eventually turn out to be far, far worse than anything else that's happened to the Republic, but I digress.) and should have retired to his law office in California. But instead, he not only came back again, he beat the anointed Hubert Humphrey.

The Democrats assumed that the Presidency was rightfully and permanently theirs before I was born, and I think every defeat or sidetrack drives them just a little more insane.

#7 Roger Stone's book asserts that the people behind the assasination of JFK were involved in intentionally setting up Nixon so that Nixon couldn't get any closer to understanding what really happened to JFK (LBJ, the CIA, and the mob).

#8 James Rosen article is a terrific introduction to details long forgotton and subsequent facts ignored by the media oligarchy that wants to narravtive to remain unchanged. Books like "Silent Coup" and "Secret Agenda" tell a fascinating tale of government in opposition to the elected President. But the real, amazing backstory, is the core point of the break-in itself. That the target location was NOT the office of DNC Chairman O'Brien, but an anteroom where a telephone stand held an address book in a locked drawer of major DNC contributors and certain preferences that loosened the purse strings. That target was defined by WH Counsel John Dean, and it is rumored that he had a personal interest in securing that book beyond politics. His flipping is linked in part to that personal connection I believe.

Given my mothers career in DC as a Republican Congressional Committee staffer and later lobbyist, we had deep family roots to many of the players in the Nixon Administration. The most compelling insight to all of Watergate from those connections for me was a comment made by one of those players that the irony of Watergate was that Nixon, a man of substantial political talent but enormously isolated personally, had no actual foreknowledge or involvement in the break-in plan itself. Rather, he took on the post-event cover-story debacle that ended his Presidency, to protect John Mitchell, whose friendship he greatly valued.

#9 Carlson is a Russian asset. Nobody forced Nixon to burglarize DNC HQ and then get caught doing it.

Yeah Dale, I wondered when someone would come along to blame the Jews.

#16 in DC the Jewish people I met truly disliked the "peanut farmer" Carter.

Former President Carter was so open about his hatred of Israel for refusing to follow his advice to bare their collective necks to Palestinian murder that he drove away first his Jewish Democrat voters and donors, then his Jewish-American friends, and finally the Jewish-American gentleman who ran the Carter Center for him. It was so bad by the end of his first term that he decided it would be a waste of effort to run again.
