What if Richard Nixon himself had broken into the Watergate compex, but rather than steal Democratic political secrets, he just stole a box of Ritz crackers. Would he still have to resign? Or just face an embarrassing petty theft fine?
complex. :smack:
Nixon: “But I was hungry. And I am not a cook!”
Monstre–you are diseased!!
I’m so proud of you!
A bit off topic, but…
When I was a kid in school, we had to make covers for our textbooks. I made mine out of white paper and decorated it as if it were a box of cereal. It was called Watergates, by General Milhous. I drew a bowl full of tape-reel-shaped bits, and added a jagged ballon that exclaimed, ‘Shaped like tapes!’ For the boxtop (drawn on the front cover) I put, ‘To open, get warrant from Judge Sirica and slide plumber’s wrench under tab.’ On the back cover I drew a beach towel adorned with a picture of the White House. ‘Cover all with this Watergate Cover-Up!’ There were other amusing (to me) things on the book cover as well, but I don’t remember them.
This is why politicians don’t answer hypothetical. They aren’t worth the gas they are printed on.
