Well, KLP, I find your question puzzling. You seem to be upset with events that happened over 30 years ago, which resulted in most of the criminals being prosecuted, and others punished in other ways. And the culprit is 91. It just seems like history to me, not current events. Could he have done things differently? This is one of the watershed events of the 20th century, of course there will be a quintillion differing opinions. I plan to mostly sit back and watch. But was just trying to remind people that, while Nixon was in many ways a great man, he did some terrible things. He broke the law, and thought he was above the law, but nobody is above the law. It's true that plenty of other important men have broken the law and gotten away with it. But that's not my ideal.
