W. Mark Felt was Deep Throat

Felt had the second highest position at the FBI. He was suppose to be for justice and was to protect government material during investigations. Peoples liberties are harmed when material is released and their Constitutional rights violated. Protections of rights of due process and liberties are the most cherished of our rights as Americans. Felt violated rights and liberties of President Nixon and countless others. It is criminal activity to release government property in an investigation. Woodward, Bernstein and Bradley of the Washington Post covered up the crimes of Felt and used it to their own gain which is criminal activity on their part. They were conspirators to do harm to a President and the nation. They want the praise from their friends in the media but they should also have paid for their criminal activity. It would have only been beneficial if Nixon remained in office to the end of his term. He would have been able to manage the end of the Vietnam war without the suffering and deaths of millions in Southeast Asia. There was no benefit of Nixon resigning. The results of Watergate has poisoned politics ever since with politicians and media trying to bring down those they oppose by stirring up Watergate style investigations. Members of the media try to destroy others to become the next "Woodward and Bernstein" with little care who they may slander falsely or whose rights and liberties are violated. What Felt, Woodward, Bernstein and Bradley did was destructive to the nation, they were disgraceful in their conduct and it was criminal.

    Thurston said, "Since when was uncovering an illegal break-in and a pattern of obstruction of justice a crime?"

    Like a typical liberal you make up something and then criticize it. Of course uncovering a crime isn't illegal, but it's illegal to release FBI material under investigation. Like Felt did.

    Thurston writes, "it was the then anonymous tips of Felt to Woodward and Bernstein that led to a congressional investigation. But why let the facts get in the way?"

    The fact that it's illegal to leak FBI investigation material got in your way.

    Thurston writes, "Watergate was an critical event in the history of the USA. It demonstrated that our country is a nation of laws.."
    But you defended the law breaking by Felt. No one else convicted in the Watergate investigation was higher up than the number 2 guy at the FBI, Felt. Apparently you only agree it's a nation of laws for people you want the law to apply to.

    He made up what I didn't write. I said it's illegal to release FBI material under investigation. I didn't say what Thurston claimed when he said, "Since when was uncovering an illegal break-in and a pattern of obstruction of justice a crime?"

    You need to read the article first before defending a liberal who makes up stuff.

    upyorz wrote, "I thought we had a Freedom of Information Act. Feel free to quote the relevent section of US Code, however."

    There is no relevant section in the Freedom of Information Act. Leaking FBI information is illegal. Freedom of Information Act has nothing to do with it.

    Liberal upyorz is even more stupid than I first thought. It's "Leaking FBI information is illegal" . Get that? Let me say it again or in this case write it again, "Leaking FBI information is illegal". Then upyorz writes, "I'd be interested in the part of the US Code that specifies that requesting FBI records is illegal." Do liberals have any concept or know the difference between an illegal leak and a request under the freedom of information act?
