Watergate Liddy may gain early release and anger over leniency
The piece reports Liddys potential parole timing after eight years and two months with comparisons to Mitchell Erlichman and Nixon clemency. It notes letters urging mercy from figures like Chesterfield Smith and Dennis Curtis, and cites Carter as decision maker. It also covers a confidential EPA GAO finding accusing the EPA of failing to warn about Chinese radioactive fallout and administrative bungling among ERDA NRC and EPA.

The piece argues the sluggish economy claim is misplaced.
