Uh, yeah and some Kung Pao Chicken.
Hey Barrack, you want anything?
That was peanuts compared to the Trump/Russia collusion delusion.
Give me a break. It was a huge nothing burger.
Obama's and Biden's use of the FBI for political spying on opponents makes Nixon look like a choir boy, who if I'm not mistaken his only crime in the matter was covering up what someone else did.
Well. they successfully bamboozled the guy who rolled up their commie buddy...glory days...just like Loose Bedspring sang about!
Dean is just selling a book.
That was a half century ago. Bidung and Clinton and O’Bunghole have all done far far far worse
It was all so unnecessary. Nixon beat McGovern in a landslide.
Uh, yeah and some Kung Pao Chicken.
Hey Barrack, you want anything?
Too bad they didn’t get away with it.
Most people are not aware of this, although I bring it up sometimes..
This is why a lot of things happened...
If only Forrest Gump hadn’t called the police.
The reason Watergate progressed as a “case” was BECAUSE of John Dean TURNING on Nixon. Why did he do this— BECAUSE his wife Maureen (Mo)Dean was a hooker (call girl) and was in the catalogue of horizontal engineers kept by the DNC at the Watergate office. This call girl book was taken by the burglars among other items, money books for walking around cash, etc., and was captured with the burglars by the police for the charge of robbery made against them.
Once Dean found out Maureen (and her photo) was in the DNC hooker book seized from the burglars and entered into evidence-— he FLIPPED on Nixon. Dean is one noodle spined a@@hole for life, who was a customer of Maureen’s— and not much of a winner with women being the lily livered dweeb he still is. He has made a career AVOIDING the truth of the matter and the DNC hooker book. This was well researched in major book back in those days. Democrats and their pals are really all whores. Nothing new— and uh, repub crossovers take part in the whoring and they have them by the short hairs ever after.
Obama and Hillary got away with things Nixon could only dream of doing.
It was mainly for Dean's own purposes, then he turned on Nixon.
Read the book, Silent Coup. Very detailed, good evidence.
I agree so why post it ?
It’s CNN, what do you expect; they wouldn’t know current news or for that matter REAL NEWS if it bit them in the ass
Nice to see they are conjuring up water gate to closely align it with January 6th and trump
Liddy Wins, John Dean Loses

Judge Emmit Sullivan, a federal judge in Washington, has added an important chapter to the saga of Watergate, the scandal that toppled Richard Nixon, but the media have not reported it. Nine years ago, Silent Coup, a best-selling book by Len Colodny and Robert Gettlin, challenged the accepted version of the Watergate story. They claimed they had found the answer to a question that puzzled a lot of people: Why did the Nixon reelection campaign send a burglary team into the offices of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) in June 1972?
G. Gordon Liddy, who served four years in prison for his role in the operation, has said it was not until he read Silent Coup that he finally learned the real reason for the caper. He said that White House Counsel John Dean had ordered an earlier break-in to plant a bug on a phone that was used to arrange dates with call girls for visiting Democratic dignitaries, and that the second break-in was ordered after address books giving the names of the girls being called fell into the hands of the police.
Silent Coup claimed that this was of great concern to Dean because his lover’s name was listed under the code name “Clout,” a reference to her connection with Dean. The book said Dean ordered the second break-in to find out if the Democrats had any career-threatening dirt on him. One of the men who was caught, Rolando Martinez, an active CIA agent, was found to have a key to a desk where it was thought the dirt on Dean might be found. The key was found to fit the desk of DNC secretary Maxie Wells.
Colodny and Gettlin found support for the Silent Coup version of Watergate in contradictory things that Dean had written and said about this case. When he was deposed, Dean tried to explain some of these serious discrepancies with the claim that he did not write or even read his book, Blind Ambition. Nevertheless, the media have treated Dean as a respected figure and something of a hero. He was in prison only four months, compared to over four years for Gordon Liddy, who accused Dean of perjury and virtually dared him to sue. In 1992, Dean sued Colodny, Gettlin, their publisher and Liddy. Gettlin and the publisher settled two or three years ago. Colodny and Liddy did not.
Colodny’s attorneys asked for dismissal of the Dean Suit, submitting a four-thousand-page pleading. Colodny says his insurance company offered him a large sum if he would settle the case, but he wanted it to be heard. John Dean wanted to end it, and he accepted a substantial payment offered by Colodny’s insurer and withdrew his charges with prejudice.
On June 2, Dean withdrew most of his charges against Liddy and the judge dismissed the rest. Liddy declared total victory and repeated his charge that Dean is a liar. But he still faces a suit by Maxie Wells, the former DNC secretary, over his claim that she kept call-girl records in her desk and arranged dates for dignitaries. Her suit was dismissed by the district court, but it was recently reinstated by the court of appeals.

Got to cover up the 2000 mules story that makes Watergate look like someone broke a window.
