A follow up on Ethical Dilemmas

One thing which was not clear in the post yesterday. Bud never, as most of the rest of the crowd in Watergate did, tried to step away from his personal responsibility for his mis-deeds. He did say that being in the Oval Office when young is an imposing situation but he did not say - "It is not my fault." That was one thing which my wife found refreshing - especially in light of the later disclosures by the likes of John Dean and others who tried to evade their responsibility for this sorry episode in our history.
