Nixon’s Vietnam Treason

Richard Nixon was a traitor.
The new release of extended versions of Nixon’s papers now confirms this long-standing belief, usually dismissed as a “conspiracy theory” by Republican conservatives. Now it has been substantiated by none other than right-wing columnist George Will.
Nixon’s newly revealed records show for certain that in 1968, as a presidential candidate, he ordered Anna Chennault, his liaison to the South Vietnam government, to persuade them refuse a cease-fire being brokered by President Lyndon Johnson.
Nixon’s interference with these negotiations violated President John Adams’s 1797 Logan Act, banning private citizens from intruding into official government negotiations with a foreign nation.
Published as the 40th Anniversary of Nixon’s resignation approaches, Will’s column confirms that Nixon feared public disclosure of his role in sabotaging the 1968 Vietnam peace talks. Will says Nixon established a “plumbers unit” to stop potential leaks of information that might damage him, including documentation he believed was held by the Brookings Institute, a liberal think tank. The Plumbers’ later break-in at the Democratic National Committee led to the Watergate scandal that brought Nixon down.

THIS is why Secret Government is undemocratic and evil.

... just being insane, or senile. 
We know this because that is what George Herbert Walker Bush told the FBI.
We also know, from the same FBI report, that Poppy heard someone threaten to kill President Kennedy.
So, why did Bush wait until AFTER JFK was assassinated to come foward with the warning?
Here's the document:
Here's a transcript of the text:
TO: SAC, HOUSTON DATE: 11-22-63

Here's background:

Another FBI memo, from a week later, was unearthed just prior to the 1988 election. In it, "Mr. George Bush of the Central Intelligence Agency" was debriefed by J Edgar Hoover himself about the Pro- and Anti-Castro Cuban communities in Miami. 1988 Presidential Candidate Vice President ex-DCI ex-China legation head George Bush said "It wasn't me." Surprisingly and contrary to longstanding policy, the agency even released the name of another "George Bush" who worked at CIA for six months or so. That guy was surprised to find reporters on his doorstep and told them he was a photo analyst on loan from another government department and he never was debriefed by J Edgar Hoover, let alone for the anything to with the assassination of President Kennedy.
Here's a transcript of the above:
Date: November 29, 1963
To: Director
Bureau of Intelligence and Research
Department of State
From: John Edgar Hoover, Director
Subject: ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY
NOVEMBER 22, 1963
Our Miami, Florida, Office on November 23, 1963, advised that the Office of Coordinator of Cuban Affairs in Miami advised that the Department of State feels some misguided anti-Castro group might capitalize on the present situation and undertake an unauthorized raid against Cuba, believing that the assassination of President John F. Kennedy might herald a change in U. S. policy, which is not true.
Our sources and informants familiar with Cuban matters in the Miami area advise that the general feeling in the anti-Castro Cuban community is one of stunned disbelief and, even among those who did not entirely agree with the President's policy concerning Cuba, the feeling is that the President's death represents a great loss not only to the U. S. but to all of Latin America. These sources know of no plans for unauthorized action against Cuba.
An informant who has furnished reliable information in the past and who is close to a small pro-Castro group in Miami has advised that these individuals are afraid that the assassination of the President may result in strong repressive measures being taken against them and, although pro-Castro in their feelings, regret the assassination.
The substance of the foregoing information was orally furnished to Mr. George Bush of the Central Intelligence Agency and Captain William Edwards of the Defense Intelligence Agency on November 23, 1963, by Mr. W. T. Forsyth of this Bureau.

I do remember that GHWB was head of the CIA when the Church Committee was looking into the CIA assassination programs. He made things all friendly-like and turned what had been a serious hunt for truth under previous DCI Colby into another dog-and-pony show.
So. We wonder why America is in the shape it's in?
Austerity for the majority and a state of permanent war, where "money trumps peace."

Richard Nixon’s long shadow
By George F. Will
Washington Post, Opinion writer August 6
At about 5:15 p.m. on June 17, 1971, in the Oval Office, the president ordered a crime: “I want it implemented on a thievery basis G------ it, get in and get those files. Blow the safe and get it.”
The burglary he demanded was not the one that would occur exactly one year later at the Democratic National Committee’s office in the Watergate complex. Richard Nixon was ordering a break-in at the Brookings Institution, a think tank, to seize material concerning U.S. diplomacy regarding North Vietnam during the closing weeks of the 1968 presidential campaign.
As they sometimes did regarding his intemperate commands, Nixon’s aides disregarded the one concerning Brookings. But from a White House atmosphere that licensed illegality came enough of it to destroy him.
SNIP...
In October 1968, Nixon’s lead over his Democratic opponent, Vice President Hubert Humphrey, was dwindling, partly because Humphrey had proposed a halt to U.S. bombing of North Vietnam. Five days before the election, President Lyndon Johnson announced the halt, hoping to convene peace talks. One impediment, however, was South Vietnam’s reluctance to participate. Its recalcitrance reflected its hope that it would be better supported by a Nixon administration.
On July 3, 1968, a Nixon campaign aide, Dick Allen, sent a memo proposing a meeting with Nixon and Anna Chennault, a Chinese American active in Republican politics. She would bring to the meeting South Vietnam’s ambassador to Washington. The memo said the meeting must be “top secret.” Nixon wrote on the memo: “Should be but I don’t see how — with the S.S. [Secret Service].” On July 12, however, she and the ambassador did meet secretly in New York with Nixon who, she later said, designated her his “sole representative” to the Saigon government.

Nixon's Shadow covers America to the present day.
For example, look as this poor defenseless poodle is being stalked by a vicious Australian Shepherd.
Another photo of a poor Poodle having her month being force full of Aussie fur:
An Aussie as a snake in the grass:
The Poodle and the Aussie grew up together but they do play hard:
I saw you had a Aussie German Shepherd mix, if by Aussie you mean an Australian Cattle Dog that is OK, but I like the all American Australian Shepherd whose only connection to Australia is the name. Present theory is it evolved and was developed in North America with emphasis on the sheep and cattle ranches of Montana.
The best theory on the name Australian Shepherd is that it was the dog to get to work the Sheep from
Australia that the US started to import in the 1890s. i.e it was named after the Sheep not the Country.
Unlike the Australian Cattle Dog, which WAS breed in Australia and has the large ears to help cool it down in cold weather and a thin single coat to keep it cool in hot weather, the Australia Shepherd has short floppy ears and a double coat to keep it warm in sub-freezing weather.
Yes the Australian Cattle Dog is breed for HOT weather, the Australia Shepherd for COLD weather.
Shep became famous as the "Dog that met the trains".
In 1936 Shep's master died and was taken by train back east. Shep tried to get on the train and then waited at the station on every train that arrived to see if his master would return on one. Shep's action made the news and he became a national celebrity, but never did attach himself to anyone else, but waited on the trains. Shep was already an mature dog in 1936, Shep did this till 1942, when he was waiting on a rail and a train came up behind him and hit him. Old age, arthritis and deafness did him in. He was given a funnel and a statute was placed over his grave, which overlooked the Train station.
http://www.fortbenton.com/shep%20images/shep%20brochure2014.pdf
When Shep was alive, about 1930 to January 1942, what we call the Australia Shepherd was not yet a breed, it was still more of a type. A breed is a dog (or other animal such as a horse), whose blood lines can be traced back several generation as being of that breed. A Type is the name given to dogs (and other animals), whose characteristics are well known but there is no registration of breeding. All Breeds started as Types, then people started to trace blood lines and converted what had been a Type to a Breed. Most dogs were types prior to about 1800, it is only in the 1800s that concerns about breeding became important (Most horses were Types prior to 1700, and except for Thoroughbred and Arabs most horses stayed types till after 1800).
Australia Shepherds were more Types then Breed into the 1950s, even today some Australia Shepherd breeders will breed in a dog of questionable parentage IF IT IS A GOOD HERDER (This seems also to be a rule with Border Collies). Such breeding is much less common then in was as late as the 1950s, but I have heard stories that it still continues among Aussies in use on ranches.
Thus Shep having a tail does NOT mean Shep was NOT an Australia Shepherd. The lack of a Tail was one of the defining characteristic of Australia Shepherds but it was never an absolute rule. Shep was to stocky to be a Border Collie but Shep may have had Border Collie in him (and this the tail) but Shep looks more like an Australia Shepherd then a Border Collie (Through Shep's coat colors appear to be more Border Collie then Australia Shepherd). Just a comment on one of the most famous dogs in American History which may have been an Aussie:

Here is the only know photo of Shep:
He is the original statute over his grave:
http://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/4367
It is out of the way, overlooking the railroad station, a station that is no longer a stop on any passenger train. Here is the grave as seen from the station:
As seen from the railroad tracks. This spot was picked for his grave for it overlooked the track and while he was alive was seen on that hill looking for trains to come to town:
In the 1990s a new Statute was made, this time in town so tourist can see it:
Shep is famous enough to make it on the front page of Fort Benton Montana's official website:

I think there were reporters back then. Reporters that could sway public opinion. 
I feel sick. 
Nixon had been in office 3 months when I arrived in-country. I lost a lot of friends back then...
R.I.P. 
He's been a bad actor in the media and behind the scenes for years ..
Rockefeller also established the highly secret, Project Alpha. The main objective was to persuade Carter to provide a safe haven for Mohammad Reza Pahlavi (code-named "Eagle"
. McCloy, Rockefeller and Kissinger were referred to as the "Triumvirate". Rockefeller used money from Chase Manhattan Bank to pay employees of Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy who worked on the project. Some of this money was used to persuade academics to write articles defending the record of Pahlavi. For example, George Lenczowski, professor emeritus at the University of California, was paid $40,000 to write a book with the "intention to answer the shah's critics".
Kissinger telephoned Zbigniew Brzezinski, National Security Advisor to Carter, on 7th April, 1979, and berated the president for his emphasis on human rights, which he considered to be "amateurish" and "naive". Brzezinski suggested he talked directly to Jimmy Carter. Kissinger called Carter and arranged for him to meet David Rockefeller, two days later. Gerald Ford also contacted Carter and urged him to "stand by our friends".
McCloy, Rockefeller and Kissinger arranged for conservative journalists to mount an attack on Carter over this issue. [font color=darkred]On 19th April, George F. Will wrote about Carter and the Shah and said;[/font] [font color=blue]"It is sad that an Administration that knows so much about morality has so little dignity."[/font]
On 19th April, Rosalynn Carter wrote in her diary: "We can't get away from Iran. Many people - Kissinger, David Rockefeller, Howard Baker, John McCloy, Gerald Ford - all are after Jimmy to bring the shah to the United States, but Jimmy says it's been too long, and anti-American and anti-shah sentiments have escalated so that he doesn't want to. Jimmy said he explained to all of them that the Iranians might kidnap our Americans who are still there." ...

Of course we now know that not only did these right-wingers instigate the hostage taking in Iran but they prolonged it until Carter was voted out and Reagan was sworn in.
any doubt in any rational person's mind that Republicans will do absolutely anything to seize the levers of power of government? Doubters are living in la-la land imo.
