sociopaths Name one. I cannot think of one President that can be fairly applied to. And that includes Slick WIllie. Main Entry: so·cio·path Pronunciation: 'sO-sE-&-"path, 'sO-sh(E-)&- Function: noun : PSYCHOPATH m-w.com Main Entry: psy·cho·path Pronunciation: 'sI-k&-"path Function: noun Etymology: International Scientific Vocabulary : a mentally ill or unstable person; especially : a person having a psychopathic personality m-w.com We The People have demanded squeaky clean public servants If you don't demand them,. you won't get anything even close. Instead, you get thieves like the Presidents of Mexico or France. The US and UK and Canada work to higher standards. Ans Watergate is HARDLY the first scandal in American politics. And hardly the first it has been demanded that the crooks be thrown out. ap.grolier.com chron.com Nixon did in fact do all he could to impede the investigation of the Watergate break-in. That is illegal. And then The willingness of Nixon and his aides to use the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in unlawful or unethical ways against their "enemies" was a reckless exploitation of the bureacracy. ap.grolier.com You want to defend Nixon and Watergate? You're on your own. Which is not to say that he did not accomplish a great deal- -he did. What keeps getting forgotten by the Left is who REALLY ended the Vietnam War- -it was Nixon. He also opened relations with China.
