Deep Throat, John Dean and worthless predictions

"Deep Throat" revealed his identity today. I won't join the chorus of discussion over this revelation, except to add that John Dean appears to be worthless as a political commentator. Dean is the man who, just in time for the 2004 elections, wrote that the George W. Bush "scandals" are worse than Watergate.

In February, he wrote that Deep Throat's death was imminent. Almost four months later, an apparently alive and well deep throat has come forward to take credit for the leaks that supposedly brought down the Nixon White House. I would write that Dean's career as a commentator is over now that Deep Throat has revealed himself, but the MSM/DNC will never let Watergate die. Dean will have plenty of opportunities to revel in the glory days.

As I wrote in February:

The MSM/DNC needs Watergate. If Watergate did not occur, MSM/DNC would have had to invent it. [Come to think of it, isn't that how the Bush national guard story got started?] Recent elections (both at home and abroad) have left very little for MSM/DNC to celebrate. So it rehashes past victories and revels in the glory days. Watergate and Vietnam. These two events will be served, re-served, salivated over, chewed on, swallowed and digested over and over again in the pages of the MSM/DNC newspapers ad nauseam until the rest of us throw up our hands and let the MSM/DNC run the government again.
