New York Times Whitewashes Ken Mehlman's Anti-Gay Past
Check out how the New York Times reports Ken Mehlman's history with the GOP.
Mr. Mehlman was in Mr. Bush’s inner circle in both presidential campaigns and ran his campaign in 2004, when the party courted Christian conservatives who oppose same-sex marriage. But Mr. Mehlman, in his work as chairman of the Republican National Committee and as head of Mr. Bush’s campaign, tended to personally avoid social issues. He was a leading figure in the Bush White House in pushing for the party to try to appeal to black and Hispanic voters.Uh, yeah. Scroll down the posts below for examples of all that "avoidance."
