One letter from Charles A. Furgason to Congressman Carlos J. Moorhead dated November 6, 1973. Furgason supports the impeachment of President Nixon. He has already written his opinion to his own representative but wants Moorehead to hear it as well as a member of the Judiciary committee. In his opinion, "America needs a man (of whatever political persuasion) who is not restrained by circumstances or pressured by personal commitments or troubles. Nixon is not that man."
