Let the Investigation Begin
Yahoo! News - White House paid commentator to promote law: "Seeking to build support among black families for its education reform law, the Bush administration paid a prominent black pundit $240,000 to promote the law on his nationally syndicated television show and to urge other black journalists to do the same."
It is one thing to have journalists in for dinner at the White House to espouse the glories of their policies, but quite another to pay for support. We would certainly have our hackles up if this were a Lefty administration, so we should probably support an inquiry.
