How many think finding out who "Deep throat" is will be a total let down.

[devilgrrl]

Just a question.

1. yea.

it sounds too good to be true, know what i mean? probably acting under orders from someone, and not doing it for the good of the country. see where we've gone...:eyes:

2. probably

It will end all the fun speculation, and it will probably be some random person nobody's ever heard of before.

3. a let down in what way ?

that it wont be some big name person like Buchanan, Bush, Ford etc ?

but rather some lower level or lesser known type?

[Skink]

4. When Renquist Kicks.....

this will be the story to cover the impending C. Thomas promotion.

[devilgrrl]

5. lower level, lesser known

eom

[JI7]

7. maybe, but i still find the entire thing interesting no matter who it is

i will be interested in reading the story of it and details. especially listening to woodward,bernstein, and bradlee.

it would seem more interesting to find out it was someone like Kissinger, Ford, Buchanan, etc.

but i find just the story itself interesting so i'm not sure i will feel a "let down".

8. I see what you're saying and agree. :-)

eom

6. GANNON is deep throat!!

.. according to Mclellan! lol

[youngred]

9. the person has probably never been heard of

but will remain a Jeopardy question after their death

so let down, but trivia

[hlthe2b]

10. Given he will be dead, there will be no questions answered....

so, yes... I do think it will be a letdown.

11. It was rumsfeld

Ol' rummy was about to be dissed by nixon. The nixon tapes quote him saying as much.

Saw it on Frontline the other night when they were in the midst of putting a shine on rummy's ass.

12. Yes, unless it's Rehnquist or GHWB. Now that would be fun.

Yahoo, total civil war in the Republican Party, questioning all their assumptions. The Nixon lovers would be in full fury. It would be great. I hope it's GHWB but I doubt it. If Rehnquist, however, it will topple a major icon. Heck, I despised Nixon (although he looks good now) but I'd think of "Deep Throat" as a major rat.

The trifecta: GHWB is "Deep Throat"; Pictures of Bush and "Gannon" in deep embrace at the WH Xmas party (OMG!); Karl Rove indited in the Plame affair.
