ok, i googled SI, did a search of their website and found the article. i'm pretty sure it's the one paul roberts is referring to. it dates from 13 March of this year, so wonder whether it isn't another exercise entirely from the one i heard about. it was over a year ago, sometime in 2007 i think. you make a good point about liberal big lies. it's something i've given some thought to. clearly they must exist (though, in the u.s.a., there are certain semantic issues with the category left/liberal, rather more so than with right/conservative). they're very hard to pin down, though. i mean, there's the gulf of tonkin (for example), which was lbj's baby. so technically it qualifies as a liberal big lie, i guess? at least by one definition of the word. yet there were large numbers of liberals who opposed the war. i tend to think that the closest equivalent to the bush/cheney/rumsfeld et al big lie, in terms of scope and apparent untarnishability, might be the jfk myth. anyway, try the following url: http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/cgi-bin/fulltext/122260824/HTMLSTART
