Quote:Nixon, tried by the press and not by any judge or court, most likely did not order or know about the activities that brought him down until after the fact, And then his crime was attempting to cover up those embarassing activities.
I don't know how these people do it. The head of Enron didn't know nothing, the head of Worldcom didn't know nothing, now here comes Nixon didn't know nothing either. Man, I want to get a job like that, where you don't have to know anything about what's going on on your watch, in your company, in your re-election committee, you just have to show up and smile.

PS The activities were not embarrassing, they were illegal and they weren't activities, they were crimes. And if you think for a moment that Richard Nixon didn't know what his CREEP minions were doing, not just at the Watergate but throughout this country*, I've got a bridge to sell you.
*We know now that there were some fifty employees of CREEP who broke into offices, bugged phones, sent phony letters and other dirty tricks.
