- Nixon aides condemn 'Deep Throat' for betrayal
AFP - Wed Jun 1, 6:23 AM ET
WASHINGTON - (AFP) - Aides to the late president Richard Nixon have said that former FBI deputy director Mark Felt, unmasked as the anonymous Watergate source known as "Deep Throat," had breached professional ethics by leaking information. G. Gordon Liddy, a Nixon operative who engineered the 1972 break-in at the Democratic National Campaign headquarters in the Watergate building in Washington, and served four and a half years in jail for it, said Wednesday that Felt "violated the ethics of the law enforcement profession."
Let's see - you're a member of the law enforcement profession - you see a crime being committed - and because it's your superior, ethically, you're required to keep quiet about it?
Somehow, G. Gordon Liddy isn't the first name that comes to mind when I think of an ethics question.

Felt is just as much as convicted criminal as Liddy, only Reagan pardoned Felt. Spare me the hero claims, Felt was as much a part of the corrupt imperialistic military fascist regime in Washington as Nixon, but it gets ugly when one mad dog turns on another.
