The New Watergrate

I beleive the Downing Street Memo (DSM) could become our generation's Watergate. I am reading various postings of outrage agains the MSM taking so long to address this and once it has been addressed to have it be considered a flimsy document. In retrospect I don't believe the Watergate Scandal was considered strong in the beginning and was consdiered nonsense musings. As in Watergate I think the the point of the DSM is to raise the tough questions. Watergate didn't boldly spell out the corruption of the Nixion Administration it was an incident that lead to the discovery of it. The DSM may be "flimsy" to some but I think if there continues to be a push we'll discover something more concrete and if those who say it's nothing but flimsy accusations then what is the big deal if we the people want to pursue it?
