I was at my local library today and pulled the Newsweek magazines from July 1974 just to make a comparison between today and that summer long ago.These magazines devoted page after page to the Watergate story with detail unheard of in today's media.I hope everyone will take a look back at the detail of the investigation from those times and see what we are missing from this decade's political tragedy. My quick summation is:
What we don't have; Any type of Congressional investigation
What we dont have; A minute by minute summary of all the comings and goings of the White House Staff and the President.
What we don't have; The retail Media following this story and documenting the minute details of the investigation and delivering it to their consumers in a timeline that removes the "Spin Machine" from the picture.
What we do have; Many of the same names and faces from the Nixon Whitehouse back in powerful positions again.(Damn we are a nation of gullible creatures).
What we need; either our current Congress to stand up for it's citizens and INVESTIGATE THE ENTIRE DIRTY MATTER OF THIS ADMINISTRATIONS LYING TO JUSTIFY THE IRAQ WAR.
OR
A NEW SET OF DEMOCRATIC FACES IN CONGRESS!!!
