... Observer.(9 ) His review runs to a little under 800 words. The first paragraph is a once-over of Nixon's career (HUAC, the Checkers speech, debates with Kennedy) and then we get this: 'In 1977 he [Nixon] was finally sunk when David Frost.... led him into saying on Watergate that 'when the President does it, that means it is not illegal'.... ' Oh, so it wasn't until then that Nixon was finally sunk, and by this plucky little Britisher, Dave Frost, no less. And he hadn't been 'sunk' before then? I guess resigning as the President in 1974, ...

This 'confession' is merely a factor in one of the puzzles: how many assassination plots were there? Before he died former CIA officer and Watergate 'plumber', E. Howard Hunt, seemed to be talking of there being several plots;(7 ) and there are fragments of apparent advance information – for example: Milteer, Cheramie, Martino, maybe even Marita Lorenz's apparently improbable story – suggesting there was more than one.

Lobster 11, all 56 pages of it, was distributed to the London media in April 1986 and we waited for them to pick up the ball and run with it. The press release was headed " The British Watergate ". I continued with Lobster; Steve worked on his book. But the major British media did not pick up the ball. Only when stories began to circulate about a retired MI5 officer called Peter Wright who lived in Australia, and a book he had written in which he referred to the plots against the government of Harold Wilson ...

Watergate Exposed How the President of the United States and the Watergate Burglars Were Set Up as told to Douglas Caddy, original attorney for the Watergate Seven Robert Merrit Walterville (OR): TrineDay, 2011, 240 pages, index; p/b , (US) $19.95 www.TrineDay.net This is a very interesting bad book with a misleading title. It's bad because little thought or work appears to have gone into its construction and there is much repetition. The title is doubly misleading: in the first place, little of it – less than 10% I would guess – deals with Watergate. Secondly, the suggestion that Nixon and 'the ...

She was banned from talking about what she heard until last year when her testimony in a court case enabled her to talk on the record based on that testimony. At that point an investigation by the major media at least as big as that of Watergate should have begun, with the deployment of the full panoply of state law offices and a special prosecutor. None of which happened. She did, however, give a long interview to the American Conservative and an article about her and her allegations appeared in Hustler.6 Here's a sample, if atypical paragraph, from her interview: ...
