Getting Lay'd in the Lincoln Bedroom
For the past few days, I have been criticizing the right for trying to diffuse the political blame for the Enron collapse. I mentioned that Fred Barnes of the Weekly Standard made the erroneous claim that Enron's then-CEO Ken Lay spent the night in the Lincoln Bedroom during the Clinton administration (it was actually George H. W. Bush's administration). Spinsanity has an article on the genesis and perpetuation of this myth. Click here.
