Richard Nixon: I need to add Woodward and Bernstein to my enemies list! I need to add Facebook and Twitter to my enemies list! 40 years ago... If Watergate were happening now...
I love the way the Republicans on this list defend Bush by claiming Obama is worse. Bush/Cheney sank a growing economy, got us into two wars that not only did not make us safer but also massively increased our debt AND increased Al Queda recruiting, set up secret meetings to decide oil policy with Ken Lay of Enron and Saudi oil barons…wow, the list goes on and on. Obama on his worst day can’t compare.Nixon, as I see him, is a man with a tragic flaw. He had enormous ability and potential, but his paranoia and unfriendliness undermined it. He accomplished an astonishing number of things, and messed up a number more.
