"They have been on the radio, have contacted the Baltimore Sun."

I guess that is why many are changing their stories?

"Ehrlich said he did not personally see cookies thrown at Steele because he was on stage."

Hmm, I thought there were showers of cookies. How could he have missed that?

And then there is the curious case of S.A. Miller.
Times reporter S.A. Miller is one of the writers who referenced the incident in news articles on more than one occasion. Miller told WTOP he attended the event in 2002 and saw Steele get hit with cookies.

When pressed, Miller said he couldn't swear in court that Steele did get hit with cookies because he didn't actually see it happen.


And then there is Steele himself.
On Tuesday, Steele told WTOP that he was never hit with Oreos and said the incident has been exaggerated.

"I've never claimed that I was hit, no. The one or two that I saw at my feet were there. I just happened to look down and see them," Steele said.

Fran Coombs, managing editor for the Washington Times, told WTOP Miller denies ever speaking to WTOP and said Miller did not attend the Morgan State event. Miller did not return our calls.

In other words, your guys are liars. And frauds. Like too many Republicans.

The GOP stole voting rights from 225,000 blacks in the last three election in Florida and Ohio alone. Those dirty tricks and election fraud hijinks cost the US honest leadership and got us into a costly quagmire war and 3-4 trillion deeper in debt. The GOP has no business criticizing Democrats. The GOP is just upset that Bush has only a 3% approval rating amongst African-Americans. That is the lowest in history.
