On rightthink

It shouldn't come as much surprise that Jim Flaherty's misuse of public resources to push money toward a corporatist think tank is far from the Cons' only recent propaganda move. So here are a couple of other developments worth noting.

First, the Cons are planning a "monument for the victims of Communism" - with the National Post of course cheerleading and demanding that they increase the proposed scope, rather than recognizing the slightest reason for concern at the state effectively declaring war on an idea.

And as already noted elsewhere, the Cons have rewritten federal websites to delete positive references to Vietnam-era draft dodgers and war resisters. Which probably makes a lot more sense as a matter of deleting any history which calls into question the view that anything and everything was justified to fight the Commies, rather than a legal strategy against current Iraq resisters.

Update: Dr. Dawg, Chrystal and Jennifer have more.
