    Nixon aides say Felt is no hero
    MSNBC's Robach talks with Colson and Buchanan about Deep

    Robach: Pat, you say you weren't surprised by yesterday's announcement. How do you feel about it?

    Pat Buchanan: Well, it brings you back to those days, and look, I think the breaking of Richard Nixon and the destruction of his presidency by people who had hated him for a long time -- Nixon gave them the sword -- that resulted in really pouring down a sewer really everything which 58,000 gave their lives in Vietnam. People forget that six months after Watergate, Nixon was at 69 percent, he had won 49 states, the POWs were coming home, every provincial capital was in South Vietnamese hands. Two years later, after he was destroyed, you had a holocaust of a million people dead in Cambodia. So I think that Mark Felt was ashamed at what he did. That's why he lied about it for 30 years, and he ought to have been. He's an FBI agent for heaven's sakes, the top man in the Bureau except for one and he's sneaking around garages leaking the results of an investigation to a Nixon-hating newspaper?

    I only included one link to the article. Download the title for the entire interview. Can anyone tell me if my messages are being deliberately sabotaged?
