Pardon me?
Ford's pardon of Nixon was one of the "...great moments when we turned the clock forward..."?
What?
Did I miss something? In my eyes it was the moment that has allowed the subsequent white-wash of Nixon's noxious legacy and led directly to his Golem manifesting itself in the Current Occupant.
Rove, Rumsfeld, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Fielding - all of them worked in Nixon's white house, and would have had that much less respectability and subsequent clout had we been able, as a country, to collectively clear our throats and hawk up that huge loogie known as Nixon.
In general, I find your positions well worth the effort to understand, but on this one, I respectfully submit that you have missed the boat.
