I know  a lot of people are critical of Russ Baker, but I think he had Watergate nailed - it was an intelligence operation. 

Totally agree with you on Nixon, no sympathy for him whatsoever but I'd bet my house Watergate was totally about "The Bay of Pigs Thing."

CIA spook HW Bush right in the middle of it all, both Ben Bradlee and Bob Woodward "former," Naval Intelligence, please.

 

I am happy to say we can agree about some things. 

E Howard Hunt was sending sealed pouches by courier back to the CIA, while working in the White House. Many on the Watergate break-in were CIA. 

Then, as now, nothing is so important in Washington as accepting the conventional view of your wing of the political spectrum.

It was too soon after JFK to murder his ass so they took him out another way.

The Bush family, three generations of attempted coups against the US.

I wrote in my 1988 reporting for The Nation about Poppy Bush of the CIA being the head

of the RNC when Nixon resigned, but Richard Lingeman, the editor

who revised my first Bush article, took it out because he said I

was "paranoid" to link the CIA to Watergate. That tells

you a lot about The Nation's mindset; Lingeman and

another member of the staff when I was there

had intelligence connections. The Nation

also refused to run my well-documented third

article about Bush and Parrott and the JFK assassination.

Editor Victor Navasky told me to avoid

writing about the assassination

because he said it is a "quagmire." So eventually I wrote about all those

episodes regarding Bush and The Nation in

INTO THE NIGHTMARE.
