He was a key figure in “our long national nightmare” serving four years in jail for his role in burglarizing the Democratic Headquarters at the Watergate Hotel. Today, Murfreesboro Vice Mayor Chris Bratcher presented the keys to the city to former Nixon operative G. Gordon Liddy.
The G-Man did his nationwide radio show from WGNS on Thursday (12/6/07). Prior to the coast-to-coast feed, Murfreesboro Vice Mayor Chris Bratcher presented G. Gordon Liddy with the Key To The City. Mr. Liddy quickly popped-back, “But is this the key to the jail too, in case I get there?”
G. Gordon Liddy and Radio America’s Jenn Shirley began the broadcast. Mr. Liddy was certainly well fed while in the Heart of Tennessee. Our friends at Kirkenburts’ Smokehouse Grill brought their famous smoked wings and other goodies so the G-Man would not get hungry.

Aren’t there any Veterans from Iraq Murfreesboro could give the keys to the city and chicken wings to? Our nation is at war and we are honoring history’s crooks. God help our country.
