book by Chris Wallace of Fox News criticized by The Daily Howler
Chris Wallace of Fox News wrote a book called, "Character: Profiles in Presidential Courage," in which he praises Predient Grover Cleveland for sending soldiers to crush a railroad-strike in Chicago.

The Daily Howler says that reflects the rich class values of Chris Wallace.

2. a great installment of the Howler
the illegal, unconstitutional, anti-labor action as Wallace's chosen example from his "feel good" book about democracy.

And Lamb I'm sure didn't notice the irony.

3. This is how Ann Coulter gets her book "ideas"
some wealthy right wing publisher hands her a million bucks and says would you like to write a book that calls Bill Clinton a traitor?

4. So Wallace admires that Cleveland acted unconstitutionally
and broke the law.

Wow.

5. I assume this is the Haymarket Square incident
in which the cops & troops shot down an unknown number of unarmed protestors.
