    BTW – Today I have something that size that not only records audio but also video for a few hours without any wire or button on it.

    I would think the wires and button would give it away, not to mention getting electrocuted when you tried to apply it.

    Less than forty years ago, Watergate was a HUGE scandal.

    A slush fund, wiretapping, a bungled burglary by some overzealous clowns and the subsequent cover-up and resignation of the president.
    The LSM gave it 24/7 coverage, most notably the WasPo, which won a Pulitzer for their coverage.
    And people went to jail.

    Compare that to what’s been going on for the past four years, including the needless deaths of innocent people, and the LACK of any substantive coverage by the LSM.
    It’s a sick joke.

    We know what they knew and we knew when they knew it?

    People died in Watergate though, that’s why it was such a big deal, right? What? No one died?

    Wait….we got our butts kicked by the Vietnamese too right?

    Hold on. Are you telling me that all the things hey taught me in public school are slanted left or just plain lies…….?

    @Norman Einstein:
    You beat me to it. Watergate was small potatoes as far as presidential misconduct goes, and Nixon was crucified for it. To this day they smear the man, using his name as a by-word for corruption. Compare to the criminal sleaze in the Whitehouse now- from green energy payouts to political cronies, illegal foreign campaign contributions, refusal to support DOMA, Dream act by executive order, unelected czars dictating policy by fiat, and now complicity in our ambassador’s murder in Libya… And the magical negro gets a pass by the media. Obama deserves trial for treason at the very least. If there was any justice the creep would spend the rest of his days in Leavenworth.
    Obama is criminal vermin.
