and thanks for the this post and David Brock's latest dirty trick

The snip from the Lewis book mentions he had interactions with Bill & Hillary through the "Democratic Leadership Council." So...Lewis could very well have purposely misstated making it sound like the Clintons were part of his movement when they were young, when in fact that was not the case, according to the dates Lewis states in his own book. If Lewis was DLC then we kind of know where he comes from philosophically and why he would go out of his way to support Hillary. ugh.
