This is valid argument. It is relational.

Wouldn't you agree?

At CRP, Liddy concocted several plots, some far-fetched, intended to embarrass the Democratic opposition. These included firebombing the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C. (where classified documents leaked by Daniel Ellsberg were being stored), kidnapping anti-war protest organizers and transporting them to Mexico during the Republican National Convention (which at the time was planned for San Diego), and luring mid-level Democratic campaign officials to a house boat in Baltimore where they would be secretly photographed in compromising positions with call girls. Most of Liddy's ideas were rejected, but a few were given the go ahead by Nixon Administration officials, including the break-in at Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office. Ellsberg had leaked the Pentagon Papers to the New York Times. In 1980, Liddy published an autobiography, titled Will, which sold more than a million copies and was made into a television movie. In it he states that he once made plans with Hunt to kill journalist Jack Anderson, based on a literal interpretation of a Nixon White House statement "we need to get rid of this Anderson guy".


Doggone it, that is sure someone for McCain to be proud of, you betcha.

Did you bother reading the Wiki article you cited? Guess not.

Lest there is any doubt about McCain's pal Liddy and his bombing plot, he spells out in detail in his own words in his book his plot to firebomb the Brookings Institute to create a diversion so he could take the documents stored there:

Will: The Autobiography of G. Gordon ... - Google Book Search

Starting page 171.
