I said for years that if and when the idendity of "Deep Throat" was made known, he would be a jealous, self-centered, and bitter Jew with an axe to grind. Well I hit that nail on the head!

I doubt anyone will believe me, but I met Nixon on a golf course in 1979 when I was 13. He was very nice and polite to me and gave me his autograph on a golf score card. I met him alone so I know he is a very nice man in private because he didn't have to take the time but he did and I will never forget it!

@hulkmeister23 The Skull and Bones Society isn't exclusive to Republicans. John Kerry and Bush Jr. were members in it at the same time in college. If you think one party is better than another, you've been fooled.

Rot in hell asshole.

@Snotlaw1 I don't understand, and it would seem the only reason his identity was exposed did have a lot to do with money.

[Snotlaw1]

The only negative thing I will say is that he wasn't the idealistic crusader out to protect the country. He told what he knew because he was passed over by Nixon to be the Director of the FBI. He got his feelings hurt and was out to get Nixon for it. By the way, Nixon was a crook and should have been removed from office.

@hulkmeister23 In the words of Deep Throat; Follow the money. If Deep Throat remained a mystery until his death Woodard and Bernstein would publish their book and make millions. By Felt coming out on his own, they lost millions (But still made soem money off him). If he were not Deep Throat, Woodard and Bernstein would have exposed him as being a liar to perserve their book sales.

Its interesting, we "Know" that Mark Felt is Deep Throat because there is alot of evidence saying so, and because both Woodward and Bernstein have released the fact that he was "Deep Throat" but there is disagreement. Some others believe it could be others in the administration of the time. But just as Woodward says when interviewed...."We have to go after the picture with the Most complete picture of truth" in other words, Mark Felt is so far the Best candidate and i personally believe its him

There is talk that Hollywood is planning to make a movie about Felk being Deep Throat and the role will go to Tom Hanks.However many people are upset the studio paid the family one million dollars for the rights to the story when they should had gotten more.Like 5 to 10 million dollars plus a huge chunk of royalties.This is a man who brought down a crooked President one of the most hated in history.

I couldn't agree more.
