Watergate hearings open in Congress, May 17, 1973: an investigation into the criminal wrongdoings of a president who was fueled by deceit and paranoia and the conviction that an election (1960) had been stolen from him. Revealed is a tortuous sequence of criminal acts, firings, bombshell journalistic revelations, whimpering Republican cowardice and simpering GOP loyalty.
The more things change with the GOP, the more they stay the same.
