If you noticed, on virtually all of these "Greats" TV programs, they have the panels stacked with Dem loyalists like Doris Kearns Goodwin, Haynes Johnson and that other ubiquitous LBJ hagiographer, I can't recall. The Left knows what Orwell warned against (them!)

In his novel '1984,' George Orwell wrote the formula for would-be thought dictators: 'Who controls the past controls the future'.

It cracked me up when Goodwin lashed out at Nixon, saying that Nixon committed the greatest crime - subverting the democratic process.

Right! That's after she praised JFK - who stole the Presidency. Praised LBJ - who stole his Senate seat. Praised FDR - who used the entire government as his campaign arm. That the same Goodwin who inveighed to keep Slick in office after he sold the office!
