The press loves to quote John Dean (of Watergate ill fame) whenever he attacks a Republican President. But since 1974 no one cares except the press! However, we love it when Howard Dean (Democratic National Chairman) attacks the President because he is a nut case.The press ought to pay more attention to Howard Dean and less to John Dean.
John Dean, is a classic example of the type of person Republicans tend to attract when they are in power. They have no ideology or loyalty to the Republican Party (RINO's ?)but they are picked because they appear to be ambitious, competent and well connected. They are like the sunshine patriot who will desert when things get tough. One thing I will say about Democrats they usually hang tough together in tough times. Clinton's Impeachment is one good example. In retrospect I have much more respect for G Gordon Liddy than for Howard Dean. (I felt just the opposite in 1974) They both broke the law but only one took his punishment like a man. There is a lesson there for Republicans.
