“I think because the spineless bastards on the hill have let Obama get away with so much that we are going to end up with another “King”...”

There are four major differences between the Nixon era abuses and those of today:

1) The current abuses of power are greater in both frequency and severity. Absolutely no respect for the Constitution is in evidence.
2) The national media was doing its job to uncover and publicize the abuses. As a result public opinion shifted against a popular President who one reelection in a landslide in 1972.
3) The leadership of the President’s party recognized the damage being done to the nation and went to the President demanding his resignation. In the current situation the Democrat leaders are publicly condoning and supporting the abuses of power.
4) Most citizens of the country were united in their love of the nation, respect for its laws and institutions, and proud of the uniquely American culture. Today we live in a multicultural nation without a common understanding of our heritage and great apathy in the body politic toward government and the law. It is very possible the majority of the people in this country do not understand the concept of individual liberty, preferring the leash of an imperial government to freedom to choose one’s destiny and the personal accountability it demands.
