@44 Bucky:
The study was misrepresented in several news outlets, including the Washington Examiner, and, at least initially, in the WSJ. I’ll admit in this I stand corrected, here’s the WSJ correction:
“A study on Honduras law and the recent removal of President Manuel Zelaya was done by the Law Library of Congress. This column attributed the study to the Congressional Research Service, based on information provided by the office of Congressman Aaron Schock (R., Ill.). A spokesman for Mr. Schock says the Congressman commissioned the study from CRS, which passed the request on to the Law Library, which also does research for Congress.”
But where do YOU get your “so-called fact” that the “CRS refused to do the study” and that “some partisan hack wrote up a quick report…”??
Quoting from the Law Library of Congress’ website: “The Law Library serves as the nation’s custodian of legal and legislative collections from all countries and legal systems of the world housed in the Library of Congress. …The Law Library of Congress provides foreign and comparative legal and legislative information services to national and global researchers through its Foreign Law Specialists. The Foreign Law Specialists are a diverse group of foreign trained attorneys…”
So excuse me for misquoting a study others in the media misrepresented, but I still have a lot more faith in the non-partisan nature of the Library of Congress’ Law Library than in YOURS.
