Since becoming a National Archives facility in 1997, the Nixon Library has been moving in a leftward direction--something the Nixon Foundation, which created the library, is trying to resist.

It would seem that these righties would have gotten rid of the stupid statues long ago. Now lefties are upset with them, irony of ironies. I didn’t have any idea that Nixon’s overtures to China included salutes to their bloody past.

"...does not imply that the United States government, which has operated this museum since July 2007, takes a position on their legacies."

Our government does not condemn the legacy of Mao the mass murderer? That CAN'T be right.

According to the article, it was Nixon himself who wanted the statues of Mao and Chou En-lai, and the sign praising them, and the U.S. Government which wants to put up a sign saying we don't approve of them.
