When you hear in the tape recordings Nixon's own voice saying, We have to stonewall, We have to lie to the Grand Jury, We have to pay burglars a million dollars, it's all too clear the horror of what went on.

Watergate is an immensely complicated scandal with a cast of characters as varied as a Tolstoy novel.

He (former President Gerald Ford) made it very clear that he did not agree with the reasons President Bush laid out for the war, namely the belief that there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq or that there was some obligation that the United States or the president had to expand democracy.

When you see how the President makes political or policy decisions, you see who he is. The essence of the Presidency is decision-making.

Watergate is not the sort of issue that changes the vote. I don't know anyone who has changed their vote because of it.

Certain political figures think when you call them and ask them for a comment; that you are somehow doing something that you shouldn't be doing.

Sometimes,doing nothing is the best reaction.
