More serious than Watergate 'because 4 Americans did in fact die'
To this day, it is not known what role President Richard Nixon played in the break-in at the Watergate Hotel, but the tape recordings from the White House confirm he and Chief of Staff H.R. Haldeman discussed using the CIA to slow down the FBI investigation.
It was the cover-up, as history records, that eventually brought about Nixon’s resignation in disgrace.
Now, Congress is investigating an alleged cover-up of the terrorist attack Sept. 11, 2012, on the U.S. foreign service facility in Benghazi, Libya, amid predictions from prominent voices that the scandal will bring down the Obama administration.
Former Arkansas governor and onetime presidential candidate Mike Huckabee made the bold prediction this week, ahead of a House hearing Wednesday that will feature witnesses of the attack.
“I believe that before it’s all over, this president will not fill out his full term,” he said. “I know that puts me on a limb. But this is not minor. It wasn’t minor when Richard Nixon lied to the American people and worked with those in his administration to cover up what really happened in Watergate.
“But, I remind you – as bad as Watergate was, because it broke the trust between the president and the people, no one died. This is more serious because four Americans did in fact die.”
Meanwhile, John Bolton, former U.N. ambassador and now a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, has also declared the Benghazi scandal could lead to Obama’s removal from office.
“This could be the hinge point,” he told Newsmax. “It’s that serious for them.”
Frank Gaffney, the president of the Center for Security Policy, wrote in a Washington Times column that “the dam seems to be breaking on the nearly eight-month-long cover-up

DONT GET MY HOPES UP!
I do not think there is very much danger of pigs flying, anytime soon.
Not that sociopath!
Nope.
The libs would support another Hilter if he had a (D) after his name and supported partial birth abortion. Dotto for the press.
Unless they turn on him in mass, and that will not happen.
Sheriff Joe, paging Sheriff Joe. Time to bring all the charges forward.
Monica Mess: some freep intoning that he was a suuuuper secret Capitol Hill insider promised that “THE GREY SUITS” were juuuuuust about to WALK UP THE HILL and arrange for Bubba to leave office.
He said that maybe 20 times, then disappeared.
That guy had MANY FANS here.
I have high hopes this time, but let’s just say that’s all they are —HOPES.
Obama was smart when he chose a running mate. Can you imagine a president Biden? No? Didn’t think so.
With Watergate, the liberal press was in full throated blood lust mode, baying at the moon. The MSM is still mostly spiking any mention of Ben-gazi..................
No way this narcissist will ever leave office on his own accord, that would be admitting that he is less then G_d.
When I saw “WND” as the source, I just rolled my eyes as usual...
Predictions from WND are like truth from Algore
Put another way, the ruling class and popular culture of the country are fantastically debased and corrupted since 1972, hard as that may have been to imagine at the time. And they grow more debased, corrupt, and disgusting with each passing day.
Great Leader will not leave office over this. Too many people don’t care, too many reporters will ignore it, and too many scape-goats can be found. Even if 100% proof is discovered and shown, how many elected Democrats will break ranks and do the right thing?
