If Ho Chi Minh was the "George Washington of Vietnam", then was Stalin the "George Washington" of the USSR?
Somehow the writer seems to forget that after the real George Washington won the war, he set about to establish a government based on peace and the rule of law, not a government that started off by sending millions to re-education camps where many perished in hellish conditions. Nor did the real Washington murder 50 million of his fellow countrymen.

Well, I think the byline was a clue. But given the left these days, I don't blame you for doing a doubletake.
I'm constantly reading NYT and AP stuff on the Web and thinking it has be satire from the "Onion".
Yeah! I wanted to get in before the ZOT!

On Tim Russert's show last night she actually said that her actitivities helped end the war earlier. She also acknowledged having sex with female prostitutes. You have to credit her with being way ahead of the current lesbianism craze.
"She also acknowledged having sex with female prostitutes."
To my way of thinking, "having sex" requires that both the male and female genital organs be on the scene and used properly.
I think we should show the appropriate concern for the dignity of these women by referring to their activities as "rug munching," "eating at the Y," "yodeling down the canyon," or the ever-popular "queering off."
But that's just me.
