"Campaign-Based Historical Revisionism" Question of the Day
(Why aren't you reading this at the new website?)

---
Who do you think wrote this:
Clinton's claim that DOMA was passed so it could help defeat the Federal Marriage Amendment (FMA) eight years later is absolutely false. As we all know, the FMA wasn't really a threat until 2002, and the two pieces of legislation had distinctly separate origins. While having DOMA on the books might have been a factor in the FMA's defeat, it was passed for political reasons in an election year. In fact, after proclaiming to the community how painful it was for him to sign it, President Clinton's reelection campaign had ads up in the South touting the legislation within two weeks!
a) A member of the "vast right-ring conspiracy."

b) A supporter of one of Clinton's Democratic opponents.

c) A Bill Clinton friend and former campaign strategist.
