I know. I know. It is WND. But, it is an interesting story nonetheless.

The identity of "Deep Throat" – the mysterious source that helped Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein break open the Watergate scandal that ended Richard Nixon's presidency – has never been revealed, although it's been the object of much speculation over the past 30 years.

Now, it turns out that one of Nixon's top aides, John Ehrlichman, who spent time in prison for his role in Watergate, stated unequivocably that "Deep Throat" was none other than Henry Kissinger, who was Nixon's national security adviser from 1969 to 1973.

1. Good guess!

How is Kissinger's health these days?

2. Saw on Olberman last night that the dates of Kissinger's whereabouts

on the dates of Deep Throat's meetings put him out of the running.

3. How 'bout Richard Perle?

Or Wolfowitz?

4. Hmm... and Kissinger is a neocon... or at least, a political antecedent

of those foul things, neocons.

5. So, why should we believe the Prussians, now?

Why would anyone trust anything Ehrichman says about Kissinger (or vis-a-versa) any more today than in '74?

Many lies will go to, and forever stay, in both graves.

7. John Ehrlichman, Watergate Conspirator, Dead At 73. February 14, 1999

Yes. On top of things, as usual, PITA.

8. Yes, he did

The article states further that Walter Anderson, "According to a report in "Editor and Publisher," a key publishing trade magazine, the information comes from Walter Anderson, chairman and CEO of Parade magazine and a close friend of Ehrlichman. Although Ehrlichman died in 1999, Anderson says the former top Nixon aide ID'd Kissinger as "Deep Throat" more than two decades ago in a conversation they had."
