The third president Thomas Jefferson had a 40-year affair with slave Sally Hemings.

There is utterly no proof of this but it has become an article of faith among the libs and the press.

Add this guy Brian Flynn to the list of politically motivated liars. He was sure quick to get the Kerry camp's "everybody does it" talking points into print, though, wasn't he? Good doggie, Brian. Good lap dog.

d.o.l.

The "proof" I've seen paraded out on Jefferson and Hemings consisted of something like this:

  1. Hemings was young and beautiful.
  2. Jefferson's wife died young.
  3. Jefferson was still virile when he was widowed.
  4. Jefferson had plenty of opportunity to be alone with Hemings.
  5. Therefore, they had an affair.

Meanwhile, even though Saddam had an army of scientists working on WMD, kicked out international inspectors who were to ensure he didn't get them and had a history of using WMD on his opponents, the inability to find a smoking WMD gun is proof positive that Saddam never had them. Kinda funny how the demented leftwing mind works, isn't it?
