>>I should have said that the democratic lies "went into high-gear" during the Clinton administration instead of starting then. The demo lies have always been there, but they are much more bolder (and outrageous) than in the past. George "outs" dishonest historians:Dishonest historians Earlier in the week, this column noted a George magazine report that presidential adviser Sidney Blumenthal orchestrated the "nonpartisan" ad in which more than 400 historians declared there was no reason to consider impeachment of the president. The ad appeared in the New York Times just days before the November elections. Now, the American Enterprise adds another piece to the puzzle showing just how dishonest were the historians who organized the statement. The media "missed one aspect of the affair: the invaluable assistance these 'historians speaking as historians' -- as one organizer put it -- received from People for the American Way (PAW), a left-wing activist group .." the American Enterprise says in its January-February issue. "Though the historians neglected to mention it in their ad, or in their press releases, or at their press conference, they were only able to publish their Times ad because PAW's tax-exempt foundation purchased it for them and served as the receiver for the donations that paid for it. The mailing address given in the historians' ad is actually the Washington office of PAW, though nobody in the major media seems to have bothered to discover this. Somehow we suspect that if 400 non-liberal scholars took out such an ad and listed an address that in fact belonged to, say, the Christian Coalition, the information might come out in news stories." washtimes.com
