All Georges don't suck.

I just read an article about George Mcgovern's reaction to DeepThroat's identify. Watergate jail-bird Charles Colson (convicted of obstruction of justice), is apparently another one of those fine, upstanding Christians.


"No matter how Felt may justify his actions, it is not honorable to leak classified information to the press. Governments cannot function if the chief executive cannot trust people who hold sensitive positions, and there are few positions more sensitive than the deputy director of the FBI," said Colson, an evangelical Christian who has since devoted his life's work to inmates through his Prison Fellowship organization.

McGovern said he wasn't surprised Watergate figures would criticize Felt for going to the media.

"When you have a bunch of crooks cooking up conspiracies against the government, they want everyone to keep the secret," McGovern said.
