Summary
This document appears to be a page from a manuscript or personal statement, likely written by a figure involved in the Watergate scandal (strongly implied to be E. Howard Hunt given the reference to Dorothy Hunt's death as a 'political assassination'). The author reflects on the 'insidious' nature of American politics, compares their disgraceful exit from Washington to the malfunctioning computer HAL from '2001: A Space Odyssey,' and cites a prophecy by Jeane Dixon claiming history will vindicate Richard Nixon.
