The American Spectator article by Ben Stein has a perspective one doesn't hear much. He is right, Nixon did a great job in all important areas. Watergate was, rightfully, his downfall. He lied and covered it up rather than letting the chips fall where they may.
I never understood why this group of yahoo's wanted to burglarize the DNC. There was nothing McGovern could do to win the election. The perps should have gone down for being arrogant and double stupid. First, there was nothing necessary in beating McGovern, he was doing a fine job of losing the election all by himself. Second, why cover it up and then commit purjury?
No heros in this, then or now.
