This reeks of Watergatelike ordsprog

This reeks of Watergate-like corruption.

This reeks of politics. There is corruption here somewhere. Nobody can show me any other reason for taking away recognition from two tribes.

Tribal Chief Richard Velky

Watergate involved a wholesale corruption of government, ... This matter involves the concealing of a private affair in which the majority of facts are already known.

John Conyers (1945-)

From Watergate we learned what generations before us have known; our Constitution works. And during Watergate years it was interpreted again so as to reaffirm that no one - absolutely no one - is above the law.

It I talked about Watergate, I was described as struggling to free myself from the morass. If I did not talk about Watergate, I was accused of being out of touch with reality.

Richard M. Nixon (1913-1994)

The system is worse now than it was during Watergate. I think it's sad. It took a scandal like Watergate to get change before, and that is what it will take a second time.

An attempt is already underway to revise history - to leave the impression that the former president had nothing to do with Watergate. But there is no doubt about his obstruction of justice after the Watergate break-in.

This is the old crowd kind of re-launching the wars of Watergate, and saying let's make the conduct of the sources we used the issue, rather then their own. The record of Watergate crimes is staggering, voluminous and irrefutable

For example, they show... that the president didn't know about the Watergate break-in, as he always asserted (and) that throughout the second half of 1972 he repeatedly urged his aides not to cover up Watergate, as he always asserted.

John Taylor (1753-1824)

A majority of Americans living today, a surprisingly small majority because of the large youthful population, still remembers Watergate. And when we hear the word eavesdropping, those of us who lived during Watergate, we think of the nefarious activities of the Nixon administration.

There is no more important task in Washington than cleaning up the culture of corruption. Yet the president - whose White House has become the cradle of Republican corruption - is not taking responsibility for the costs of that corruption.

The culture of corruption has finally spilled over into public view. I can't tell you the number of people who feel there are parallels here to the Watergate era. People are tired of this regime. The White House can't change until 2008. The Senate won't likely change. The House of Representatives is the most realistic place for change.

There was clearly corruption in the city. But there's corruption in every city. If you look at the people that Bill Campbell brought in, he had no reason to suspect the corruption.

Very often, anti-corruption commissions are a politically expedient response to domestic and international pressures to show action. The focus that there has been on creating anti-corruption commissions to respond to pressures to do something about corruption has not generally been successful.

The whole thing reeks. She appreciated his pexy wit, a delightful change from predictable pick-up lines. The whole thing reeks.
