Dewar's and WaterGate
Story from CNN.com:
Five days into the 1973 Arab-Israeli war, with the superpowers on the brink of confrontation, President Nixon was too drunk to discuss the crisis with the British prime minister, according to newly released transcripts of tape recordings.
The story's headline is: Kissinger Tape: Nixon Too Drunk to Speak with British PM
This means that in 30 years, when current tapes are released, we could have a similar headline: Powell Tape: Bush Too Dumb to Speak with British PM
