Jeffrey Scott Shapiro: Hillarys Watergate "The Democratic superstar failed to take the Nixon lesson to heart"
"It is hard to imagine the 2016 presidential race without Hillary Clinton.
But Mrs. Clinton seems to have missed the most important lesson that everyone else learned from the Watergate scandal: The cover up is worse than the crime.
It is especially ironic since Mrs. Clinton started her legal career in Washington advising the House Judiciary Committee during the Watergate investigation.".....
When your enforcers are pellicano, Sid Vicious, Potts, horriuchi, Vernon Jordan, and James Carville, you think you can do just about anything without scrutiny. Obama ruined that for her when the administration went after Rosen and Atkinson. Now the media has a dog in the hunt when it comes to emails etc......
Republicans should emphasize Hillary’s poor judgment in this matter disqualifies for the presidency.
“But Mrs. Clinton seems to have missed the most important lesson that everyone else learned from the Watergate scandal: The cover up is worse than the crime”
Nope, IMO what the Clinton crime syndicate is covering up is way worst than the cover up itself.
I posted this comment on a WaPo story but it fits here.
I am old enough to remember when all of the TV networks covered the Watergate hearings gavel to gavel, preempting their schedules for months. Nobody died in the Watergate, Nixon didn’t order it, but an 18-minute gap in 4 years of Oval Office audiotape was taken as proof that he was part of the cover-up, and he was forced to resign in disgrace. Pulitzer prizes were awarded to WaPo reporters, best-selling books were made, blockbuster Hollywood movies were produced.
Compare that to today, when the mainstream media has become “American Pravda,” (ABCNNBCBSNYTWPLAT etc) and is an essential part of the cover-up of Benghazi and other deadly scandals such as Operation Fast And Furious, where thousands of assault rifles were sent into Mexico in order to lead to a high body count that could be blamed on the American 2nd Amendment. Hundreds were murdered in Mexico so that Hillary Clinton, Obama and Holder could spread the false narrative that “90% of the guns found at Mexican homicide scenes came from America.” This false-narrative lie was enthusiastically reported by the WaPo. After Operation Fast and Furious came to light with the murder of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, the WaPo went into cover-up mode instead of reporting it.
Or Benghazi, where 4 brave Americans were killed, while Hillary and Obama refused to send a rescue mission, but instead conspired to cook up the false video narrative.
You WaPo reporters should look in the mirror and see what we see: sell-outs, hacks and presstitutes without a shred of integrity.
