specific examples of liberal denial
[[Hillary Clinton]], for example, refused to admit in a presidential debate in 2007 that she is a [[liberal]]. [[Michael Dukakis]] refused for a while to admit that he was a [[liberal]] during the 1988 presidential campaign, until finally he declared himself to be a [[liberal]] in the sense that President [[Harry Truman]], who served 40 years earlier, was a [[liberal]].

There are also specific examples of [[liberals]] denying, for ideological reasons, facts that are plainly true:
# that [[Lawrence Summers]] was fired as President of [[Harvard]] for making a politically incorrect suggestion about women and [[math]] aptitude
# that [[Ronald Reagan]]'s public exhortation, "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall" caused the nearly 30-year-old wall to be torn down later
# that [[gun control]] may increase crime
# that group prayer is censored from [[public school]]
