The Man Who Pardoned Nixon Has Been Dead For A Few Days


I am at a loss to understand how letting Richard "tricky Dick" Nixon off with a pardon was a "good thing" for the country. If you want to know why people are so cynical about politics and power in the good old US of A, all you have to do is look at this man getting off without paying for his crimes.

We won't mention Gerald Ford's support of the invasion of East Timor by Indonesia or the 200,000 dead because of it.
That would be too uncivilized at this time.

I know I am not the only one who has mentioned this but it can't be said enough as an antidote to all the tv talking heads who will rewrite history with a smile on his or her face.
