man, it's got to suck being the wapo right now, getting scooped on your own story. anyone else feeling a bit let down at how the secret was revealed, for the crassest commercial reasons?
You are correct. It won't happen again. In fact I'm taking out a felt tip marker and keep track. I do apologize. I don't know if it is because I'm tired beyond exhuastian, being so stupidly silly, just amuses me right now, but I can't help it. I know how awful it is, but I can't help it.
I think the guy deserves some accolades for his patriotic action before he dies. Mr. Felt, we salute you.
Aggierocket....do you know Felt? I know you worked for the State Department during that time and I know you had/have a lot of contact with different people in the govt. at that time.
I do not know him personally. I knew who he was during the time and I might have run across him at some point. I do not recall ever speaking to him and I do not know him personally. After this revelation, I'm very happy that I do not know him personally. It is because of him that America went through 6 years of Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter. Going from Nixon to Ford & Carter is like going from Pete Maravich to Pete Chilcutt. Maravich left us way too soon and Pete Chilcutt was..Pete Chilcutt.
Why does he have the name Deep Throat? I know about the p*rn movie but it dosent make a lot of sense to me.
I respectfully submit that elected officials, no matter how well they acquit themselves in office, should not be above the law.
When I said this, I said it to say that I do not consider Felt a patriotic hero and I do not salute him. The guy is a snitch. That's all he is.
from Bob Woodward's article today.. I consider Felt to be a hero. He saw mass corrpution and sought to expose it and bring the criminals to justice.
