People associate Liddy with Watergate. When he defends this administration, it helps people identify the Bush2 and Nixon administrations.

He's playing "Mother Night" for the Republicans, and always has. I swore before Felt that Liddy was Deep Throat.
Basically, His job is to make the Republicans look like the nutjobs they are by being the Bull Moose nutjob.
Liddy was actually a good friend of Hunter S Thompson as well

EXCELLENT EXCELLENT read by the way...that kind of double life can really fuck you up.
So perhaps Liddy doesn't even know what side he's working on....in fact I would bet on it.

16. He's an odd character. |
|
While I do not agree with his views, I think that he was and is the most honest of the Watergate participants, in terms of talking about the series of events from 1968 to 1974.

18. I always thought that was bizarre... |
|
Liddy and Leary hanging out? Now Liddy and Franken? For being a complete fucking whackjob, the guy runs ins some interesting circles.
But I always figured Liddy and Leary dropped acid together at some point. And Franken's pretty partial to the Grateful Dead... Just connecting dots here...

20. Dr Tim called Liddy his "personal project" |
|
However, I have to say I do wonder if Liddy is less the extremist than he seems. He's an atheist. I've never "gotten" atheists who are hard-headed extremists and militaristic. Seems antithetical somehow.

15. Liddy always reminded me of Col. Flagg from M*A*S*H* |
|
Just a scary, spooky person, that could probably kick your ass in about a dozen ways if you looked at him wrong.

Al was on the Micheal Medved show wed. They all do this to promote something or another. They gotta eat too. It's all a business.
