One letter from Donald L. Parker to Congressman Carlos J. Moorhead dated ca. January 1974. Parker is against the impeachment of President Nixon and writes, "I've had enough! Like watching for the umptenth time of re-run of a lousy TV show, I've had enough of Watergate. . . .In spite of the efforts of CBS, Time Magazine, and the other poor losers in the liberal camp to keep the 'issue' alive, I submit that America has had enough of Watergate. LET'S GET OFF THE PRESIDENT'S BACK!"
