I FIND IT STRANGE . . .
... that Chuck Colson is offended -- "I am really shocked," he says -- that Mark Felt (a k a Deep Throat) went "sneaking around dark alleys and talking to reporters." It wasn't "the right way" for a "very upright" FBI agent to uncover Watergate crimes. Uh, wait a minute, Chuck. Weren't you one of the worst of Nixon's real dark-alley sneaks? Weren't you the White House counsel who ordered an illegal break-in by Howard Hunt to find info against Nixon's opponents? Weren't you the guy who pleaded guilty to Watergate-related charges and to obstruction of justice in the Daniel Ellsberg case? Weren't you sentenced to from one to three years in prison? Didn't you serve only seven months because -- praise the Lord -- you were "born again"? Please, Chuck, save your Christian evangelism for your followers and spare the rest of us your moral outrage.Posted by at June 1, 2005 09:50 AM
