"YEEEEAAAAAAGH!"....oh wait, wrong Dean.
Wronf Dean..more likely Maureen (Mo).anybody that could pull her hair back that tight in a bun obviously has a wild side..
Dean is still attacking republicans. And the fact that the MSM continually disses the idea that Dean might be DT is even more confirmation that it must be him.
Why would Dean leak information that would later lead to his own imprisonment? This is silly. Surely he would have confessed to being Deep Throat in an effort to gain sympathy during sentencing.
Fish said the same should hold true for Bill Clinton, who was acquitted by the Senate in his impeachment trial resulting from lying under oath about his affair with Monica Lewinsky.
Nixon purjured himself. But Clinton "lied under oath".
Even this republican can't see the two actions as the same.
And did Nixon actually lie under oath? I didn't think he ever gave sworn testimony.
don't think it is Dean......didn't fit the profile and didn't they say DT was very sick......even so, Dean makes for a nice "TRAITOR"
I have always felt that dean was "Deep Throat". I had read the book Slient Coup and it showed that dean was a backstabbing little toady who would do anything to advance his career. He did not count on the outrage that the dims & the Country had felt after words. I think that he had leaked the information in order to deflect any attn. away from himself. I have listened to the Gman on several occasions, & he has stated that if he had gotten the call to remove dean from this world he would have gladly done it!
Nixon was nuts, John Dean was slime.
I'll bet Liddy agrees.
Dean does suck but thats an interesting way to put it..
He says perjury should be grounds for impeachment, and Nixon would have been convicted had it gone to the Senate.
Then he suggests destruction of evidence. Is he morally consistent?
G Gordon Liddy said that and dared Dean to sue him a long time ago.
Oh, JOHN Dean, le batard!
With all due respect to Mr. Fish, his theory doesn't make that much sense. Why would Dean reveal information that would lead to his own imprisonment?
I strongly suggest that folks read "Book Two - Golden Boy" of Silent Coup, by Len Colodny and Robert Gettlin. The "Golden Boy" is Dean and this section of the book expands on the theory that the break-in was intended to cover up Dean's girlfriend's (Maureen Elizabeth Kane Owen Biner Dean) relationship to a ring of prostitutes run by Maureen's roommate Erika L. "Heidi" Rikan/Cathy Dieter.
Dean could very well be Deep Throat.
Not likely. The supposed reason that Deep Throat's name has not been disclosed is to protect his aninimty so that he could continue his career. Dean let that ball drop long ago. Disclosing he's Deep Throat would not in any way harm him, and in fact would probably make him a lot wealthier because he could sell more of those books he likes to write. And besides, it seems relatively certain that he would not help break the story that landed him in jail, or that he would at least use that fact as a mitigating factor at his sentencing.
How many foks have been ID'ed as "Deep Throat" over the years?
There is no Deep Throat. An imaginary character so that Woodward would not have to reveal sources.
C. Hitchens is convinced that Kissinger is Deep Throat ... and Hitch should have enough inside data to write a book on it ...
