Nixon and Hoover did much the same things during the Vietnam war. Nixon was just too stupid to pass a "Patriot" act to cover his ass. Don't forget the entirety of the red scare led to similar acts.

Martin Luther King, Jr. was thoroughly investigated by J. Edgar Hoover's FBI for such thoroughly un-American activities as supporting negro equality and philandering. I, for one, am glad to know the government is working to keep me safe from such radicals.

And the CIA was never so much as asked about it's illegal invasion of various countries, connections to the Mafia, or torture experiments.
