In reply to the discussion: Lawrence O'Donnell's anti Clinton propoganda last night [View all]it must have been a different blm who quoted the NY Post's Olin to criticise Dean to name just one example. You also repeatedly quoted the Weekly Standard as well. So why didn't he use Lieberman or Edwards or Rockefeller or Feinstein or Kerry or Biden or Lincoln, or Dashle, or Johnson or Baucus or Cantwell all of whom spoke in favor. Again, if he had done this to Kerry you would be full blown hissy fit mode, the difference is I think propaganda is wrong all the time, you only care when it is Kerry who is the victim.
