Yesterday I posted the first half of the '48 Liberal Lies About American History.'
Today I will conclude the list. Here ya go:
25) The Scopes trial proved that Darwin was correct and Christians were
backward.
26) The 1950s were dull and boring and created a generation of conformists

28) Neither Ronald Reagan's election nor the "Contract with America" proved the

Israel.
