Deep Throat Leftovers

Just a few notes and updates on the Deep Throat revelation of last week.

• I didn't mention it, but natually the likes of Pat Buchanan are going to support Nixon to the death. Pat Buchanan owes his life to Nixon and cannot say a bad word about him.
• The Albany Times-Union of Albany, NY reported today that there were other FBI personnel that helped Mark Felt with information to leak to Woodward and Bernstein. This deepens the notion, as discussed in this space last week, of "Deep Throat By Committee.
• I think that it was particularly smarmy that the likes of G. Gordon Liddy appeared on television decrying the morals and ethics of Mark Felt. Liddy is a convicted felon; same goes for Charles Colson, also smarmy and a "born-again Christian."
• My compatriot Mr. Aaron Cynic, pointed out the coincidence of these revelations and the case of the Newsweek Gitmo story of two weeks ago. Seems interesting that this discussion of un-named and uncredited sources would happen in such tight concordance. Makes you think; it should, at least.
