Just in time for midterm elections, Watergate(for real this time!) |
|
Water-Watergate? Watergate II? Watergate-We Thought You'd Forgotten? Watergate-One More For the Road? Watergate-I Know It's Been Done To Death But This Time It Really Is Watergate? Watergate-Mirror, Mirror? Known teabagger Republican James O'Keefe tries to bug the office of a Democratic US Senator with the help of a CIA cohort. Yup, I think having the public associating the Republicans/Teabaggers/Pseudo-independents with the the Nixon administrations bugging of the Democratic National Committee's headquarters at the Watergate complex, something the Republicans have been trying so hard for almost 40 years to bury, I think that will just about sink the so called Teabag revolution and any hopes of a Republcian resurgence in November. If the Democrats are smart they will profile this case for the next 9 months. Watergate, Watergate, Watergate, Watergate. Thanks O'Keefe, you may have tossed a ton of lead bricks on the drowning Republican party when it was coming up for air.

3. I don't understand why this should be any bigger of a deal than all the prior |
|
scandals (also *real*) from the past many years.
Let's see, government tapping citizens, Plame's outing, US Attorney scandal, torture, lying us into a war, Oh man, I could go on, why will this one be "The BIG one?"

We'll keep on keeping our powder dry. This is just another one that will get swept under the rug.
