Watergate burglar: Obama 'most corrupt ever'
World Net Daily ^ | June 17th, 2012

Posted on 06/17/2012 8:22:38 PM PDT by ReformationFan

Barack Obama’s administration is the most corrupt ever to occupy the White House declared Watergate burglar and retiring radio talk star G. Gordon Liddy.

With tomorrow marking the 40th anniversary of the Watergate break in, Liddy was speaking today in an interview on “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” on New York’s WABC Radio.

Liddy was the chief operative for the White House Plumbers unit that existed during Richard Nixon’s presidency.

Klein asked Liddy: “You lived through and in fact were a part of different presidential administrations. … Looking now at Barack Obama’s previous four years, have you ever seen a White House administration as corrupt as this one?”

“No,” replied Liddy. “It’s just astonishing. They can’t tell the truth to sell their souls. They came into office making all sorts of promises about being transparent and all the rest of it. And they just demonstrated that either they don’t know how or they [have deliberately] chosen not to be. But it’s very disappointing to the American electorate how these people failed to live up to their promises.”

Today is the anniversary of when the burglars were arrested at the Watergate hotel. The date of “June 17th” was repeated endlessly the following year during the Senate Watergate hearings.

Speaking of corruption, I am puzzling something.
This isn’t the usual Airforce One (747) I could be wrong but I think he is using the VP or FLOTUS ride.

The date of this is May 21 2012—Michelle was doing a fund raiser in Cleveland that day and the POTUS did some business in Chicago, then was off to Joplin Mo(where he flew in on the 757 *I think it is*)

Check out the schedules for that day....

My question is: Are they switching up planes to avoid needing to pay for their use in campaigning? If Obama traded out and took FLOTUS plane from Chicago to Joplin— that would make it business, no? Technically, anyhow.Is this just another way they are ripping the taxpayer off?

Maybe I’ve went ‘round the bend but I sure am stumped by this. Maybe I am confused and missing something????

Interesting and perhaps meant to be ‘below radar’?

Best book on Watergate was G. Gordon Liddy’s. There is as much myth perped by Demrats on that ‘job’; as there is, in all their opaque ‘transparencies’ and creative ‘rewrites’ in their ugly political history - where it meets their opposition.

The reason is because the MSM will NOT cover the corruption just like they didn’t for the Clinton/Gore administration

The MSM is just as criminal for not doing so

If and when the Republicans regain control of the Government, they need to pass a resolution apologizing to Richard Nixon and the Nixon Family.

It is curious.

I suppose it is pretty convoluted but it could be a way they try and get around paying for the flights.

FLOTUS flies into Cleveland on the 757, Obama into Chicago on AF1/747, somehow the planes are switched up for Obama to fly FLOTUS plane into Joplin—tada! In that way both planes are used for Presidential business?

*shrug*

It just seems odd that he flew into Joplin, Mo on that plane.

Maybe FLOTUS and Jarret hopped over to Chicago after Clevland for a little wedding planning (Jarret’s daughter married this past weekend), then Obama took the FLOTUS plane at that point?

Sure makes campaigning a lot cheaper when we pay for it.

Just like New York—he visits ground zero and we pay for his SJP fundraiser.

Liddy never wrote a definitive Watergate book.

The books that Liddy endorses as factual are "Secret Agenda” by Jim Hougan and “Silent Coup” by Len Colodny and Robert Gettlin. Read both books to understand the correct Watergate history.
