Rick Perry and Another Comparison To Watergate. "If that’s not Nixonian, then I don’t know what is.”

I knew there was a reason I liked this guy. Governor Rick Perry spells it out. " I mean, with Watergate, you had a second-rate burglary. And now you have a president who is using his executive privilege to keep that information from Congress. If that’s not Nixonian, then I don’t know what is.” The distinction that has yet to be made in the media that clashes between Congress and Presidents Clinton and Bush did not involve violent crimes. Yes, there always the contention that an investigation would show criminal action but in this instance the murder of a border agent is not in dispute. The wrong doing does not have to be uncovered it is known a priori. Brit Hume was first to make the comparison to Watergate. The next escalation will be when Perry and others begin to refer to this as the Fast and Furious cover up which is exactly what the executive privileged documents deal with.
