Via Matthew Yglesias, I have just learned that one of the Right's favorite myths about Democrats not being tolerant of differing views, that Pennsylvania Governor Robert Casey was denied a speech at the 1992 Democratic National Convention because he was pro-life, isn't true.
You'd think that such a belief, so wide-spread that even liberal Democrats like myself believed it until about six minutes ago, would find it hard to take root in a land where the media is so lockstep in cadence with the political Left in this country. Weird. That's quite a head-scratcher.
