Deep Throat = Deeply Troubling

Published:

Finally it's been revealed who "Deep Throat" was — the #2 guy in the FBI at the time.

I think a lot of people are very surprised about that, since the conventional wisdom was that it was a politician of some type, not someone within such an important law enforcement role.

I could totally understand political back-stabbing that would lead to blabbing about something that would bring down a President — but the #2 law enforcer in the USA?

Troubling, to say the least.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the "rightness" or "wrongness" of what Nixon did in covering up the inappropriate actions of a few misguided people in his party.  It was obviously wrong.

This is about the #2 FBI man involved in numerous ethics violations, not to mention possible criminal wrong-doing.

The fact that he is being cheered by liberals as a hero is puzzling on the surface, but in reality fits in perfectly with their notion that anything in the furtherance of the liberal agenda is OK.  (Think: Earth Liberation Front.)  The end always justifies the means, if it means the setback of conservative principles.

These are the same liberals who were all over FBI leaders like Louie Freeh and Robert Mueller.  I guess they weren't heros because they didn't rat out a conservative.

As it turns out, the most troubling aspect of this Deep Throat thing is that the likely reason Mark Felt (AKA "Deep Throat") ratted out Nixon was because he was overlooked for the #1 job at the FBI.  What a hero.
