Yeah, Nixon was a good guy who stuck by his guys. He was exonerated of having anything to do with the break-in, but he did make a bad decision to try and cover it up. He did that to protect these guys who had worked with him for years. He should have thrown them to the wolves for their actions, and it's a shame he didn't, because he risked his entire Presidency over what he believed to be a few good men, who really weren't.
