Buchanan on Watergate--more than meets the eye?

A column by Pat Buchanan today on the 30th anniversary of Watergate. Interesting both in its spin and because there are those that think Buchanan was Deep Throat. Excerpts:

Instead of throwing his old friend John Mitchell to the wolves when Mitchell's aides got caught filching papers from the Democratic National Committee, Nixon let White House aides attempt to contain the scandal.

Like FDR, JFK and LBJ, he crossed the line. But where they had been protected by Democratic Congresses and their media allies, Congress and the media seized on Watergate and colluded to destroy a president who had defeated them and taken the country completely away from them.
