Brit Hume Said Walter Reed Scandal Was A Problem For The Bush Administration, Not The Troops: "This morning on Fox News Sunday, Brit Hume spoke about the Walter Reed scandal in entirely political terms, saying “the problem” is that it “looks terrible” for the administration." (Think Progress, 3/4/07)

Brit Hume Lied, Claimed FDR Was In Favor Of Privatizing Social Security: "Brit Hume falsely claimed that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt advocated replacing Social Security with private accounts. In fact, while Roosevelt advocated "voluntary contributory annuities" to supplement guaranteed Social Security benefits, he never proposed replacing those benefits with private accounts."
