richard nixon superstar

One of the more nauseating things to watch and read about over the last week is the number of conservatives who have decided that Mark "Deep Throat" Felt was the real villain of the Watergate scandal and that President Nixon was a victim. The condemnation of Felt reaches new lows in this article by Ben Stein:
Have you noticed how Mark Felt looks like one of those old Nazi war criminals they find in Bolivia or Paraguay? That same, haunted, hunted look combined with a glee at what he has managed to get away with so far?

And it gets worse: it's been reported that Mark Felt is at least part Jewish. The reason this is worse is that at the same time that Mark Felt was betraying Richard Nixon, Nixon was saving Eretz Israel. It is a terrifying chapter in betrayal and ingratitude. If he even knows what shame is, I wonder if he felt a moment's shame as he tortured the man who brought security and salvation to the land of so many of his and my fellow Jews. Somehow, as I look at his demented face, I doubt it.
and idolization of Nixon reaches new heights:
I think the hero was Richard Nixon, fighting for peace even as he was being horribly mistreated and crucified just for his fight for peace.
To sum up, Felt=Jewish traitor/Nazi war criminal, Nixon=Christ.
