American Hero G. Gordon Liddy Passes

 Edit: why not report more about Liddy’s service in Korea? Update: Liddy was unable to serve in Korea for medical reasons. 

Liddy was right about Nixon too. He should have been a lot more ruthless. 

Liddy was an erector set style atheist later in his life. We can only hope he found his way back to the Church. His lapse is pretty understandable considering how a fruity institution like the American Catholic Church vilifies men with Liddy’s courage and patriotism. 

The Catholic Church wasn’t built by people like Robert Barron, but men like G. Gordon.

I’ll light a candle for you, Agent Liddy! Thank you for your selfless service to our great country. You will be missed!

[CBS Snooze] G. Gordon Liddy, a mastermind of the Watergate burglary and a radio talk show host after emerging from prison, died Tuesday at age 90.

His son, Thomas Liddy, confirmed the death but did reveal the cause, other than to say it was not related to COVID-19.

Liddy, a former FBI agent and Army veteran, was convicted of conspiracy, burglary and illegal wiretapping for his role in the Watergate burglary, which led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon. He spent four years and four months in prison, including more than 100 days in solitary confinement.

I was a faithful listener of his show and loved the way he spoke nostalgically about the Old Church and Mass. of the Novus Ordo he said, these guys are playing with aluminum baseball bats. He served the old Mass. Knew Benedict Gröschel.
He had no use for Commie clergy in Latin America.
Unfortunately, he was a big Zionist, a sexual libertine, and an evolutionist thanks to his Jesuit education.

Liddy could snap your neck in a NY minute. Timmy is just skateboard and wigger bluffing.

I wish I could get the complete , total coverage Watergate Hearings of Summer 1973 presided over by the great Sam Ervin (I think that was his name). I wasn't elev alive then, but I saw clips of it on C-Span afew summers ago and wish I could get the whole thing....even though it would be pretty $$$$$$$

Great?

Maybe Ervin didn't have as good a record to be called "great". I just watched the C-Span episodes of the hearings they presented about 2 years ago in June or July, and thought he did a fantastic job as the presiding Senator. I was born in 1988, 15 years after all that.

Thanks! Happy Easter

When one looks at who came out of Watergate, G. Gordon Liddy was the most honorable. John Dean (tell me he isn't half a fag) is every liberals favorite "Conservative" and he can be depended on to counter-signal anything authentically Conservative. Chuck Colson was able to rent-seek by starting his "Prison Ministry" and became the darling of Evangicucks who love "Blessing" Israel. Liddy once said of Colson, "If he'd walk over his grandmother to get Nixon reelected, God only knows what Colson will do now that he's found Jesus". You will be missed G-Man!

Of all of those charges , advocating people go to the Episcopagan church is the most damning.

How was he a Libertine?
I haven't heard anything from him since 1996 when his talk show was removed from our city.

Most of the Catholic Hierarchy has been persuading people to join the Episcopagans.

Removing valid comments is oddly fitting for this blog.

You're good.
Simply put i haven't heard nor know anything about Gordon Liddy since 1996.
Sounds like he changed quite a bit between back then and now.
God bless -Andrew

Liddy was awfully funny but seemed deaf to matters of purity. What's new about that? Nada. God rest his soul, he had guts.
