    Dugg again!

    Ah, Lexis-Nexus our old friend. I can't believe the Republicans didn't find a way to get rid of it. Wasn't that winston's job in 1984? Altering the past records so the lies of the Party would never be exposed?

    Lexis-Nexus is the antedote to Colbert's "wikiality."

    Glenn, a further suggestion since you obviously have a LN account: In 2001, Bush fired all 93 USAs as well. It would be a further point worth raising to confirm that no one on the "left" went and made a big deal about that decision. I do not remember any "scandal" about it, but it would be worth saying: "Look, we defended Clinton's decision as fair and routine, and we will not criticize Bush for the same thing"
