As far as the pathetic old man comment, I just don't understand why people in this culture don't respect their elders.
I have no respect for a man who sneaks around and hides under a journalist's skirt.
I wish Nixon would have dropped an atomic bomb on NV, then maybe my uncle would still be alive.
Felt is pathetic, his family is pathetic and there was nothing noble or heroic about his leaking. He should have come out in the open. That would have been worthy of respect. As it is now, he is just sickening.
So since you respect all older people, does that mean you respect Bush 1?
I doubt it.
I am sorry about your uncle!

If we had nuked NV the Russians would have counterattacked and it would have been WW III and nuclear annihilation. In the future you might want to think before you speak!

Any course of action that leads to the destruction of the entire human race is not an option!

Default Who gives a crap about motivations?

Felt is no hero in my eyes but I don't really care what the motivations for his ratting Nixon's team out, he ended up doing the right thing by submitting the story to the media. It was a one in a million circumstance and it worked.

Default Felt really added nothing new to the investigation anyway

A coward is a coward. He was one then and he is a gold digger now.
