Watergate Complex
A superblock located in the Foggy Bottom neighborhood with six buildings makes up the
Watergate Complex. One of the 6 buildings, The Watergate Hotel, is infamous for the
burglaries that led to the "Watergate Scandal". Of the 5 remaining buildings, 2 are office
buildings and 3 are Watergate Apartments. Current Secretary of State, Condeoleezza Rice,
resides in the Watergate Apartments today, with past residents including Bob Dole and
Monica Lewinsky. In the basement level of the Watergate Complex there is a retail center
with a supermarket and at street level upscale shops and restaurants.
It is a wonder that one police car could figure out just where the burglary was
taking place?
Fred Thompson 1973 Now
The question that changed the world!
On July 16, 1973, and the Watergate committee was
hearing from Alexander Butterfield, a deputy
assistant to President Nixon.
Asked by Fred Thompson. The Senate Watergate
Committee's chief minority counsel. (later Senator,
movie and TV star)
"Mr. Butterfield," Thompson asked, "are you aware of
the installation of any listening devices in the Oval
Office of the president?"
Butterfield 's reluctant answer revealed the secret
audio-taping system in the White House Oval Office,
and that changed history.


Did Nixon really resign?
Not according to the legal requirements.
Section 3.
Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of
the House of Representatives his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers
and duties of his office, and until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary, such
powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President as Acting President.
Nixon did not send a letter to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of
the House. He sent it to Henry Kissinger!
25th Amendment: (Ratified February 10, 1967)
Senator Kenneth Keating of New York proposed a Constitutional amendment In case of the
removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation.
In the House of Represenatatives the 25th was proposed by: Emanuel CELLER, a
Representative from New York; born in Brooklyn, N.Y.
The power of the New York controlled press is most evident in this case. Not one mention of the
25th Amendment appeared in the New York Times until long after the Amendment was passed.
No TV news programs ever covered the amendment process in the congress or during the
ratification of the states. It requires total control of the Senate, House of Representatives and
most all of the 50 states.
Some very interesting information that played a
part in The Amendment and more shocking...
and it's true!
Have you ever wondered how everybody seemed to know what was on the tapes, and where,
before they were "turned over - to committee staffs, special prosecutors, or judge Sirica? The
media didn't wonder.White House conversations-in person and on the phone-had been
"bugged-for at least a year. There were literally "miles of tapes in storage" somewhere. But it is
obvious somebody already had the evidence they sought when the various subpoenas were
issued!
Consider the fantastic detail involved in the requests. Somebody knew exactly where the juicy
parts were, down to the second.-
On August 14th, for example, judge Sirica demanded the "entire segment of tape on the reel
identified as 'White House telephone start 5/25/72 (2:00 P.M.) (skipping 8 lines) 6/23/72 (2:50 P.M.)
(832) complete."
January 8, 1973 from 4:05 to 5:34 P.M. (E.O.B.)
a) at approximately 10 minutes and 15 seconds into the conversation, a segment lasting 6
minutes and 31 seconds:
b) at approximately 67 minutes into the conversation, a segment lasting 11 minutes;
c) at approximately 82 minutes and 15 seconds into the conversation, a segment lasting 5
minutes and 31 seconds.
Henry Kissinger was deeply involved in wire tapping his own staff and several journalists. But
the one member of the White House staff who apparently never had his remarks taped in the
Oval Office was Herr Kissinger
Nationally syndicated columnist Paul Scott reports:
Records of the Senate Watergate Committee investigation indicates that Dean's testimony concerning Rockefeller
was never followed up by the committee's staff. The reason: Committee members were against calling Rockefeller.
Kissinger put a member of his staff, David Young, in charge of the unit. You have never heard of David Young? join
the multitudes. He was a Wall Street lawyer who had worked for Rockefeller before being promoted to Kissinger's
staff.. After Watergate, Young was spirited off to a cushy assignment in London as a very advanced student, and
the mediacracy has dutifully ignored his key role in Watergate.
The Watergate burglary, which was bungled more badly than a Keystone Cops chase, ended with a proven link to
the White House. But no one ever claimed that Nixon gave the nod for the break-in; it was his role in the coverup
that led to his downfall
