Woodward reprises his Watergate role






Wednesday, September 5, 2018


You know the Democrats must really be desperate dragging out Woodward from his old age to help rescue their plot to bring down the Trump administration.
It’s like hauling the battleship USS New Jersey out of mothballs near Camden to help refight the War Between the States, a regular old Ironclad from the questionable Washington Post to repeat the magic Woodward brought them when the Democrats brought down Richard Nixon years ago.
The Democrats have been using every old trick imaginable in their desperation to regain power – resurrecting the Red Scare and the communist conspiracies from the 1920s and 1950s with their imaginary Russian plot to rig the 2016 election, to the old Slavery misinformation mythology the abolitionists used to ignite the civil war, claiming that Trump were separating families and putting them in cages, the way the south allegedly did with slaves imported on New England ships from places like Haiti.
But the plot that works the best in the imagination of a somewhat gullible American public is the myth of Watergate – and what better way to resurrect that old ghost than to bring out one of the old ghosts who helped orchestrate the biggest con job in modern American history – Bob Woodward.
This is great stuff, even Tom Clancy could not have thought up – but also it a dangerous road to go down for Democrats since it requires them to revisit the scheme that was orchestrated to bring down Nixon, and raises questions about media’s role in helping to bring about a change of government.
Unfortunately, the plot Woodward took part in during the early 1970s didn’t quite work out the way he and his cohorts in the Democratic party planned. Some authors believe the scheme was designed to bring down Nixon to make way for another Kennedy to become president, and unfortunately, the Kennedy clan’s myth got ruined by a road accident, and so it was more just revenge plot to bring down Nixon at any cost.
We are seeing a similar plot line here. Media and the Democrats were set to crown America’s first Queen in Hillary Clinton in 1997 just as it had the first king in JFK in 1961, since Clinton clearly had done her duty to step aside for the first African American president. She deserved to be president. She had been a good Democratic soldier – even if ruthless, underhanded, sneaky and possibly dishonest.
This assumption of power changing hands is typical of the ruling class which controls most points of power from the North East financial to the far west propaganda machine in Hollywood. In between,
the Democrats could rely as always on the same cooperative media to help smooth the way for the Ice Queen.
Unfortunately, media and Hollywood could not manipulate the power shift, and Trump won in what is seen as the biggest upset since Truman beat Dewey, and so the plotting began, creating the myth of the Russians, and that failing, a return to slavery concept, and now when it looks like none of the above worked, they drag out of mothballs the old battleship of Woodward, to help restore the proper order and repeat the plot he helped them pull off when media brought down Nixon.
This is a man who became a saint in the public’s mind and helped create one of the great myths of our lives, the concept that Nixon was responsible for the Watergate break end when Dean orchestrated it, and then when he got caught, used it as a bargaining chip to survive.
We see Democrats using similar scumbags these days to achieve their power grab, people who they play such as Bannon – which served as the Washington Post’s unnamed source until he was no longer useful to the plot and got cast out among the rest of the crap.
Because the media has so engrained the myth of Watergate in our minds as to be a symbol of political corruption rather than an aspect of a largely failed political coup, dragging out Woodward gives the new charade some degree of respectability, when in reality, it is more of the same – just another desperate move by a party devoid of values, who wants only to return to power by any means, and is willing to use old rusty battleships of the past like Woodward to regain it.
This is a sad commentary for the Democrats, but worse for Woodward, who should have kept to his books and tries not to reopen the old Watergate wound where people might now see just how corrupt a concept it was, and how his role in the new Watergate is just as corrupt.
