“Bill Moyers (born June 5, 1934) is an American journalist and public commentator. He served as White House Press Secretary in the Johnson administration from 1965 to 1967. “

Landslide Lyndon punked Moyers so hard (like he did the rest of his staff, barely treating people as human) that Moyers to this day still thinks he's part of Lint'n's manhood.

He'll go on being Lint'n's p**** until the day he dies. He deserves to be buried face-down under an Interstate.

He’s a monster and PBS and NPR should be cut off from federal funds.

Well, Kenneth Tomlinson certainly gave all the PBS/CPB ("Communist Party Broadcasting"?) fair warning in 2003; so no further notice is really needed before severing CPB and throwing it out for sale on the courthouse steps, the second day of the next GOP president's term of office.

The unending string of panegyrics to dead and not-so-dead Communists makes me want to vomit. The show POV has been flogging a bunch of Communist propaganda about Guatemala lately, prominently featuring the Nobel Prize fraud-liaress Rigoberta Menchu, whose fabrications have been publicly documented; but like the emetic Doris Kerns Goodwin, likewise caught abusing the public (plagiarism in Goodwin's case), she simply refuses to go away.

It merely suits America hating, race card playing liberals to put forth Thomas Jefferson as the father, so that they can draw a moral equivalency between an esteemed Founding Father and the immoral behavior of Bill Clinton, Barney Frank, et al.

It's actually a Left-wing memetic attack on the language of the Declaration of Independence and the limited-government, anti-Leviathan political tradition that goes back to Jefferson and the Anti-Federalists (who were, by the way, the fathers of the Bill of Rights -- which Alexander Hamilton famously, and somewhat insidiously, denounced).

It stands to reason that totalitarian statists like modern "liberals" and "progs" (so-called: they're all Stalinists, actually) would attack men like Jefferson, who were exponents of the American liberty tradition.

Their lead dog, by the way, has been an Australian journalist with an absolute bloody-eyed thing about Jefferson.

WTF? Bill Moyers and his son take upwards of $2 million per year from NPR. For that kind of money, they might want to tell us what the asshat's real name is.

Bill started his real "career" as LBJ's butt-and-towel boy. Before that, he was a Bible-Beating-Baptist-Bunko-Artist-Preacher, of the Dunk'em, Dump'em Broke, Texas variety.

What a weasel!

Doris Kerns Goodwin

Silliest goddam book I ever had the misfortune to read. A wasted two hours of simplified Cliff Notes swiped from Carl Sandberg, among others. Page after page of twaddle.

It is possible that she and the fraudulent Rigoberta Menchu are the same person?

Doris Kerns Goodwin..... It is possible that she and the fraudulent Rigoberta Menchu are the same person?

That would be a hell of a makeup job, but not impossible for their gay friends in Hollywood.

Thanks for the kind words ... the attacks on Jefferson have been going on for 10 years now, and they don't get media coverage, except to repeat the attacks almost verbatim, as if they were a) true and b) not foul and malevolent, both toward Jefferson and America generally.

Didn't know Moyers had taken a stab at the Elmer Gantry gig. Was he a grad of Jim Bob Swogglehorn's "divinities" school over in Baton Rouge?

Say, Gracchus, I didn’t mean to insult anyone with that “Bible-Beatin’-Baptist-Bunko-Artist crack .... much. Yeah, this creep started out as a preacher ... and I ain’t kiddin’ when I tell you he rakes in MILLIONS from NPR. Just like Garrison Keillor.

Well, it works pretty well for Jim-Bob Swogglehorn, sometimes called Swaggert, and his Divine Ministry of the Earth-Mother Ya-Ya. If you meant to compare Moyers to Jim Bob, then I'd say the denunciation works perfectly.
