LIVING IN A POLITICAL FANTASY WORLD.

UPDATE: Reader Ray Summers emails:

Mr Keller writes:

The Valerie Plame affair. According to Leftworld, this was the illegal cover-blowing, and thus endangerment, of a CIA agent, orchestrated by Vice President Cheney for political purposes. According to Rightworld, it was the insignificant leakage of a marginal CIA employee not by Cheney but by aide Scooter Libby, an event distorted by a Bush-hating media.

It does not help his case when he simply repeats the Left’s lies. Richard Armitage leaked but exposing Armitage would not damage the Bush administration so he got a pass.

I know you know this, but, evidently, Mr Keller does not. I have written and, politely, informed him but do not expect a correction. If you would post about it perhaps something would occur.

Yes, it’s worth reminding people of this. Even those of good intent can be deceived by the fog of lies, particularly in matters like the Plame affair where there was a lot of narrative control. But if you’re going to talk about false political narratives and bias, it’s important to get your research in order.
