Every bit as sleazy as you thought. So now we know: Richard Nixon almost certainly tried to keep the South Vietnamese government away from peace talks during the Lyndon B. Johnson administration, largely settling one of the great "Yeah, we thought so" questions of American history. Notes taken by Nixon aide H.R. "Bob" Haldeman show
Just think of all we would have missed.... (Like Larry Burrows, who took this, might not have gone down in a helicopter.)https://uploads.disquscdn.c...
Yes, very much so. I think that the first place that I saw something like this was on the Daily Show, but the count continued to rise. It may be 16 now http://mediamatters.org/blo...
Every time I heard the "both candidates were so flawed and awful" line, even from people I regarded as friends, I had to fight the urge to just unscrew their heads against the threads.
It is such bullshit, a completely lazy and inaccurate belief, one that could be dismissed if one just did the fucking research.
It depends. Which is worse? Evil clever or evil stupid?

NIXON broke America.
Then he ran off and did not clean up the mess.

I bet you here and now that Carter and Clinton will get no such tongue baths when they shuffle off this mortal coil...
Thanks for reminding us about this...hope those Voyagers keep going farther into the cosmos.
Very cute...:)
Unfortunately, no hat will ever look that good on me...I'm a bit jealous...
Yep--because, you know, emails.
What "half dozen Watergates from Obama's time"?
....Unless this is snark, and in that case, I stand corrected.
