Fake But Accurate

Well Ted "Jabba the Senator" Kennedy admitted that the Mao's Communist Manifesto story was fake, but in the liberals newest standard for truth, "accurate". Lame but expected.

Laura Capps, a Kennedy spokeswoman, said last night that the senator cited ''public reports" in his opinion piece. Even if the assertion was a hoax, she said, it did not detract from Kennedy's broader point that the Bush administration has gone too far in engaging in surveillance.

Later in the same article Taranto states that UMass is going to hold a conference on "Rethinking Marxism". What a brilliant idea, I want to sponsor a conference on "Rethinking the Black Plague" or how about "Rethinking the Spanish Inquisition"!
