Ruling on Nixon Papers
In lieu of the compensation we owe Richard Nixon for his infamous documents and tapes, I suggest we apologize for violating his Fifth Amendment rights. I also suggest we follow the precedent of former President Chester A. Arthur, and burn them. Chutzpah has reached a new high or low, depending on your viewpoint.
I believe Richard Nixon should bless Gerald Ford forever for allowing him to resign in 1974, instead of being impeached.
I will be happy to donate the garbage cans needed for a bonfire.
