DON'T CALL US
THE producers of the show Monica Crowley and Ron Reagan will launch next week on MSNBC haven't been paying close attention to Crowley's Saturday broadcast on WABC Radio. The curvy conservative invariably refers to Sen. Hillary Clinton as "Madame DeFarge," the French revolutionary of "A Tale of Two Cities" who did her knitting as she happily watched aristocrats decapitated on the guillotine. Last week, Crowley labeled Clinton's feints at moderate positions as "Rodham's Dance of the Seven Veils," provoking hundreds of enthusiastic e-mails. When MSNBC invited her to come on the debut show, her staff rapidly responded: "The senator will not be available now or in the foreseeable future." How about when hell freezes over?

February 11, 2005 -- NOW about this "Deep Throat" soon- to-be revelation. Woodward and Bernstein are once again teasing mankind, saying how they'll maybe soon reveal The Identity because they'd always agreed they'd wait until the death of this person. Well, I don't totally know anyone gives a hoot anymore. However, I do know about a 90-year-old man who was a player in the Nixon administration. High up in the FBI in those days. Close to Hoover in earlier days. Now seriously ailing in California, his name is Mark Felt.

I ran this by David Gergen. Now at Harvard's Kennedy Center, in those heady days he was Nixon's adviser and himself often erroneously touted as Deep Throat. Said David:

"I always believed it was somebody at the FBI or CIA. It required access to files, to the interview process. Sitting in the White House you can eavesdrop, but you haven't the capacity to get to files. So, I always suspected it was the agency who was in a semi-war with Nixon, or the FBI who had probably 50 reasons why they were mad at us. It required access and motive. What the motive for this particular man from the FBI would be, I don't know. I can only say going in his direction sounds logical."

While on the phone, I asked his take on the Social Security issue. He said: "Bush can't sustain this fight. The faster the president backs off, the better. He has to explore alternatives. Orrin Hatch is very fertile-minded. He can come up with something whereby President Bush may save face and yet come up with some sort of workable plan. The president cannot continue going down this road."

2. I wrote MSNBC about the Ron Reagan, Jr show

and let them know that our household entirely stopped watching their channel with the exception of Keith Olbermann, that if/when they decide to give Ron Reagan his own show without counterbalancing him with a right-wing nut, I might add to that list-otherwise, still won't be watching.
