He was forced to resign because of what some alternative magazine reporter said John Dean said Earl Butz said in a personal conversation, conveniently timed for the 1976 elections.
Yet 32 years later, even after his grave, you continue to slander this man’s name with these leftist media lies. Well, all I can say is that I hope Mr. Butz is resting in peace tonight while everyone slanders his name.

Um...do you have a link to Sec. Butz, or anyone else for that matter, denying that he told this joke? Make the case that the remark was publicised for political purposes if you want but it isn't a "lie" to do so unless he never told the joke.
