The Department of Health and Human Services acknowledged Thursday that it paid a syndicated columnist at least $4,000 for work on behalf of the Bush administration's efforts to promote marriage.
The disclosure came a day after President Bush called for an end to paying commentators to promote his policies.
Conservative commentator Armstrong Williams and syndicated columnist Maggie Gallagher both had publicly backed Bush policies while being paid by the government without disclosing it.
Journalistic integrity anyone? And, is anyone REALLY suprised that Bush paid people off under the table to get his ideas out? Can anyone sell me on the idea that W has ANY redeeming qualities?
