Thanks for adding this Dr. Nick.... pretty much summed up a lot of the bias/skew I was hoping to get at.

Why don't you ask him to do the same check on any of DdC's links?

The Ford Foundation, The Rockefeller Foundation, The Carnegie Foundation are all considered liberal foundations. They also fund CIA pet projects.

I would but they are too long and hurt my eyes (sorry bro, not meant as a diss). Regardless, I'm an anarchist, I don't have a dog in the fight as it exists. It's all kindof criminal to me.

nice try.

Rockefeller became a lifelong member of the then-new Republican Party, and a strong supporter of Abraham Lincoln and the party’s abolitionist wing.

pretty conservative for a "liberal"

^not if we understand the Republican Party as a fundamentally corporate institution funded by burgeoning rail monopoly. Support for the abolitionist cause was seen as the opening up of a new (lower) wage labor pool-Rockefeller hardly was John Brown. Always remember the Republicans were the pro-Black rights party until the 1960s Nixon realignment. It can likely be argued that really until the 60s, the "liberal" economic party was actually the more socially backward one. Goldwater's wife was a booster of planned parenthood in its infancy.
