Man, if this doesn't creep you out, what does? This is not a joke, it's really the card the Cheneys sent out to all their correspondents and friends this year: The Vice President's Christmas Card.

I'm wondering if it is a valid quotation to being with. IIRC, Franklin was Deist, and that doesn't sound like something a Deist would say...

Of course, just in the last 15 years I have seen history be masaged, so it probably isn't even taught anymore. I think I need to start a collection of school US and world history books dating from the begining of the 20th century to the present. It would make an interesting comparison...

I would pay money to attend a class (college?) where they compared and constrasted the history books of today and yesteryear on the same subjects. I'm really interested to see what the differences are and what liberties have been taken... Of course I also realize that those same history books could have "popular" and not entirely factual information themselves, but still would be an educational process.
