A whole lot of nothing, except the left hated Nixon with a burning passion, as much as they love Obama, that’s how much they hated Nixon, every man and woman jack of them!
Nixon was a crook...
Bill Clinton was simply charming...
Barack Obama has brought us change... mostly dimes and nickles, and pennies...
Folks, Richard Nixon deserves the nation’s apology. For him to be treated like that for what he did, and the other two louts to have been completely ignored for what they did?
Nixon was a saint compared to these two.
Obama will have our nation on it’s knees by the end of his presidency. All hail the best president eva...
God this is depressing.
Nixon went after Alger Hiss and the Commie loving Left never forgave him.

No It was a crime pure and simple. Just because the other side engages in it, or worse, is irrelevant. Nixon committed various crimes and rightly resigned. I was quite a Nixon admirer back in the day and worked on his campaign and still feel as I did in ‘73.
BOTH sides of the aisle felt this way about him. If we overlook the criminals in our own home then we have zero moral authority.
Compared to Clinton and Obama, his actions were downright honorable.
Watergate was payback.
How much time do they spend teaching about how Nixon revealed the leftists’ spy idol.
bump
I don’t defend Nixon’s actions (which were criminal). Obama has engaged in same and worse.
Who runs the schools and media? Leftists. Why are leftists surprised that dumbing down the schools for 40 years is actually working??
“No It was a crime pure and simple. Just because the other side engages in it, or worse, is irrelevant. “
You are aware that just prior to the Watergate breakin, the democrats raided a republican place out west and stole papers related to the retrieval attempt of a Russian submarine?
“If we overlook the criminals in our own home then we have zero moral authority.”
Well, OK, I can agree with that, but how do we solve a problem like Obama (apologies to Rogers & Hammerstien)?
I wish I could do a big parody song here, and maybe someday I will, but never mind that now.
The press covers for him, he’s got real dead bodies on his head, and nothing happens.
Not to mention that [every bad word in the book] Lois Lerner.
These people make Nixon look like an amateur, forget Kennedy and Clinton, the whore mongers, that’s really bad but not a threat to the nation.
Nixon’s name is MUD; many still see this nincompoop Obama as a “light bringer”.
What do we do about that?
There have been Democrat moles in the GOP campaigns for the past umpteen election cycles. Whether they were “Democrats for McCain” (until he got the nomination after which they became members of the Obama 2008 team) or “journolists” working undercover or “free agents” mailing the opposition Bush’s debate strategy video or...
They hated him alright. Look at that fool Johnson. Look at Carter, Clinton, and Obama, and yet they see nothing wrong with them at all.
Nixon was hated for the Vietnam War. When he was sworn in there were between 500 and 550 thousand U. S. Troops in Vietnam.
Johnson had to stand down rather than run, but the media gave the guy a complete pass.
JFK had RFK as Attorney General to protect his @$$. Barack Obama has Eric (with)Holder.
I agree. What the guy did was wrong, but your point is reasoned. He stood behind his men. He didn’t merely cut bait and whistle on down the road.
Over 100 different Chinese people in the United States fled the nation rather than testify before Congress regarding Clinton campaign cash from China.
Clinton was the main contact for all those people. He cultivated those contacts in Arkansas. He was directly involved.
Not a peep from the press.
Clinton was an organized crime figure. Obama is an organized Islamic plant.
Ssssshhhh...
Nope. EPA, federalization of discrimination (AA), etc.
Calvin, in the overall scheme of things you think these two issues trumps Johnson, Carter, Clinton, and Obama?
LMAO
Gain some perspective fella. He wasn’t impeached for those things.
No, those things weren’t good. He sure didn’t sell our our nation to the Chinese or Islamic hordes though. He didn’t put 550,000 troops on Vietnamese soil.
I’ve got bones to pick with Nixon too, but in the overall scheme of things, those are nothing compared to what the others did.
The Great Society programs and the Vietnam War
Carter’s destabalization of Iran that we deal with even today
Carter’s dismantling of our military in the midst of the cold war
Bill Clinton’s criminal activity, many issues, many deaths, treason to boot
Barack Obama’s literal daily treason to Islamic interests...
Obama’s destruction of our military
Sorry, Nixon was still a saint compared to the rest of them.
Blowing off the gold standard, wage and price controls, the EPA, NEPA, the Endangered Species. Clean Air, and Clean Water Acts...
Yeah, I'm feeling really conciliatory and forgiving.
