5 W's of Watergate

Who:  Nixon hired five men to break into the Democratic National Convention, Watergate.  The five burglars were discovered by Frank Wills, the security guard.  The reporters from the Washington Post, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, hired Mark Felt the FBI Associate Director and together they connected the Watergate scandal to Nixon and told the public the facts.

What:  Nixon was paranoid he would not win the election his second time running.  He assigned five men to break in and bug the Democratic National Convention in order to hear what they were saying in their campaign.  When the burglars failed to bug the Convention properly and were caught by the security guard causing a monumental scandal.

Where:  The Watergate Scandal took place at the Democratic National Convention.  The National Convention is in Washington D.C.

When:  The watergate scandal occured June 17, 1972.  This was the second break in because the first time the burglars did not bug it properly.  This was during Nixon's second time running for president to ensure he would win the election.

Why:  Nixon hired the five men to break in because he was very paranoid about his competitors.  This became a scandal because it tainted his image as a squeaky clean president.  This caused him to be the first person to resign from office.


Moonlight Drive

Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
Let's climb through the tide
Penetrate the evenin' that the
City sleeps to hide

Let's swim out tonight, love
It's our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive   

Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
Let's climb through the tide
Surrender to the waiting worlds
That lap against our side

Nothin' left open
And no time to decide
We've stepped into a river
On our moonlight drive

Let's swim to the moon
Let's climb through the tide
You reach your hand to hold me
But I can't be your guide

Easy, I love you
As I watch you glide
Falling through wet forests
On our moonlight drive, baby
Moonlight drive

Come on, baby, gonna take a little ride
Down, down by the ocean side
Gonna get real close
Get real tight
Baby gonna drown tonight
Goin' down, down, down


burning love

Lord almighty,
I feel my temperature rising
Higher higher
Its burning through to my soul

Girl, girl, girl
You gonna set me on fire
My brain is flaming
I don't know which way to go

Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love

Ooh, ooh, ooh,
I feel my temperature rising
Help me, Im flaming
I must be a hundred and nine
Burning, burning, burning
And nothing can cool me
I just might turn into smoke
But I feel fine

Cause your kisses lift me higher
Like a sweet song of a choir
And you light my morning sky
With burning love


 

Its coming closer
The flames are reaching my body
Please wont you help me
I feel like Im slipping away
Its hard to breath
And my chest is a-heaving

Lord almighty,
Im burning a hole where I lay
Cause your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
With burning love
Ah, ah, burning love
Im just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love


Satisfaction


I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

When I'm drivin' in my car
And that man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no, oh no, no, no
Hey hey hey, that's what I say

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

When I'm watchin' my T.V.
And that man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts can be
But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarrettes as me
I can't get no, oh no, no, no
Hey hey hey, that's what I say

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no girl reaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

When I'm ridin' round the world
And I'm doin' this and I'm signing that
And I'm tryin' to make some girl
Who tells me baby better come back later next week
'Cause you see I'm on a losing streak
I can't get no, oh no, no, no
Hey hey hey, that's what I say

I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no satisfaction
No satisfaction, no satisfaction, no satisfaction


electric ladyland

Well, I stand up next to a mountain
and I chop it down with the edge of my hand.
Well, I stand up next to a mountain,
chop it down with the edge of my hand.
Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island,
might even raise just a little sand.
'Cause I'm a voodoo chile,
Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile, baby.

I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,
I'll give it right back to you one of these days.
I said I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,
I'll give it right back one of these days.
And if I don't meet you no more in this world
then I'll, I'll meet you in the next one and don't be late, don't be late.
'Cause I'm a voodoo chile, voodoo chile,
Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile, hey hey hey.
I'm a voodoo chile,Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile, baby.

5 popular songs from the 60s or 70s

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be   
Let it be, let it beLet it be, let it be   
Whisper words of wisdom Let it be
And when the brokenhearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer let it be
Let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom Let it be
Let it be, let it beLet it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom Let it be   
And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Yeah, let it be, let it be Let it be, yeah, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be Let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom Let it be   



In this political cartoon a general is painting of the truth about Vietnam.  This is significant because in the beginning before the media became involved the people were lied to about the motives to fight in Vietnam.  Once the media became involved it exposed the cruelties and true horrors of what was happening there.  This also was the beginning of people's distrust in the government.  The bucket in the left side of the picture explains how the government dealt with ther Vietnamese.  They would go into their territory and kill off as much of their culture and families as they could. The police officer is painting over what they wanted to cover up during the war.  In the end, their was no victory in the war. Many were killed and the that was the truth that many Americans did not see.
