Recently, I read a piece in the left-of-center New York Times where a select group of “historians” were giving advice to former Vice President Dick Cheney regarding his forthcoming memoir. After reading the highly suspect advice, I naturally wondered what exactly is a historian?

Unfortunately for those who actually value the truth, it seems a great many “historians” —  like the majority of the mainstream media, those who “educate” our children, and those who “entertain” us — fancy themselves as surrogates for the liberal wing of the democrat party, and of late, propagandists for the history making Barack Obama.
