Playboy Magazine got its undies in a bundle over the nation wide Tea Party protests held last Friday that were inspired by CNBC's Rick Santelli's free market rant of February 19. As Noel Sheppard noted on March 1, the skin mag published a piece claiming that Santelli was part of a vast right-wing conspiracy to protest Obama's socialist policies.
It turns out, however, that the story has been proven false and in response Playboy has mysteriously removed the piece that first raised the question of the grand conspiracy. Happily, the facts have won over on Playboy forcing it to pull down the fallacious story. In its place, all we now get is a "We're sorry, we couldn't find the page you requested," notice.

What about the Administration conspiracy to claim Limbaugh as the “head” of the Republican Party?
With they had any integrity, the liars would be forced to resign. Or put to work in the mailroom.
Make that “If they had”.
Well said,
“Scream the lie, whisper the retraction.”
Kinda like Steele vs. Limbaugh huh?
“A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can put on its boots”.
In Playboys case, that would “A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can zip it's fly."
