Hardly a day goes by that I don't come across another item like this that makes me realize how much BS has been shoved down our throats over the years. I thought that history revision was a fairly recent thing. Seems it has been going on for a very long time. Who are the revisionists?

I believe the reality is that the net has become the place where people can find the truth much faster than was possible before. The liberals hate that. In the past they could spew all the lies they wanted knowing that the weak minded would soak it up as the truth. It must be true - I heard it on the news. Now because of the net, when lies are told the real truth works its way to the top in a short time compared to the past. I have learned more truth about the past and present on the net then I would learn from watching a lifetime of television. As good old Milton said all those many years ago "The Truth will Out". (LP)
