Reply #102: Do you mean be a fake DT???

Is that what you mean by patsy? Problem there is with Bernstein and Bradlee--you'd have to get them to go along with the lie. I could see Woodward, with his connections to the evil empire, bullshitting us, but not those two.

Perhaps GHWB is VERY ILL, and they are keeping it quiet. A lot of times people can hang in there, do commercials and public appearances, right up until the end, and then they have a quick downslide and they're off to the daisy farm to do push ups.

I am so curious as to who it is; I would hope that he made a video and answered all of the questions so many of us want to know--what made him do it, what specifically drove him to be the leaker, how did he feel about his role, was he ever afraid, was he ever tempted to speak out publically, either during Watergate or in subsequent years???? So many questions, I hope he's left a book or a video.

Regardless of his motivations, the guy is an American Hero.
