I knew most of this except about who called which hearing.

I draw a correlation between this story and the global warming issue on Wikipedia. Hard to push the facts when the propaganda is so overwhelming.

Reminds me of Stalin's quote more or less: Doesn't matter who gets the most votes; it matters who counts the votes. Almost cited Carter on that one re: Zimbabwe, but he hasn't said anything.

I was a history major for about three years. Had some liberal and conservative professors, but I could not tell you the politics of most of them. As I look back, I was struck by how much they pushed objectivity, emphasizing that historical facts can be elusive or maybe not even available.

Now I long for some objectivity in journalism and history.
