I can hardly wait...

I’m sure they’ll have Nixon and all the guys in a dark smoky room discussing espionage, damn the constitution!...

Weren’t those burglars hired to retrieve pics of some politicians floozy? And yet it’s the biggest scandal of ALL time to dems.

the remarkable thing about watergate was how such accomplished, brilliant men could get wrapped up in such stupid, idiotic “crimes”....Nixon hated the media so much, but lost perspective....

You can always count on liberals/Dems to give the masses revisionist history.

The left doesn’t ever accept election outcomes when they lose.

This idea is a loser. Watergate was a big zero “scandal, involving a burglary of some documents and Nixon trying to cover for that act. Then Nixon resigned and was pardoned.

I watched much of the proceedings on TV, while on vacation in Galveston where it was pouring rain for days. Fortunately, I had a couple of novels to read while listening to the TV. BORING HEARING! Will be another Clooney FLOP if it happens.

Watergate is so tame compared to the stuff that Clinton and Obola did that this series will be a giant yawner if it’s portrayed accurately.

Nixon lied? NYT now confirms that Obola lied multiple times, and Clinton lied under oath.

And there’s no way to “sex up” Nixon.

Ohhhhh, how exciting! Maybe a few of his friends will watch it drunk over at his house and pretend to like it.

Why don’t they just do a series on the modern “Watergate”, FBI/DOJ Gate, HillaryGate, and LynchGate. They could have three seasons just on those crooks and traitors alone.

It's always good to put Watergate into the proper perspective.

“The libs like to talk about Nixon. Clinton not so much.”

And “The ZERO” not at all!
