Could it possibly be? George Bush, 41st President of the United States, Ronald Reagan's Vice-President, former Head of the CIA, and of course, father of the current President -- could he be the Watergate Scandal's fabled "Deep Throat??"

That's what writer Adrian Havill proposes. The "Long Resume President," Mr. Bush was Nixon's ambassador to the UN at the time and went on to head up the GOP before becoming CIA chief. Could he have known enough of Nixon White House inner workings to tip off Woodward and Bernstein??

Well, who knows. We doubt it, but what an intriguing idea: The self-effacing, future 41st President driven by a sense of duty to surreptitiously bring down the brusque, semi-paranoid 37th Chief Executive -- and never breathing a word to anyone. And being ironically rewarded by Mr. Nixon himself with the Republican Party Chairmanship!

Who knows what other covert adventures this humble public servant may have engaged in. A series of spy novels may be in order: George H. W. Bush: The Secret Adventures.

But we do know that notes from the legendary Washington Post reporters that broke the story wide open are now on public display for the first time. Both men have sworn not to reveal the porn movie-monikered source's true identity until after he's dead.

John Dean, Nixon's Counsel turned informer, and now famous Deep Throat hunter, says he's heard that could be soon.
