The term '''miscegenation''' was coined in a [[1863]] [[propaganda]] [[pamphlet]] titled ''Miscegenation: The Theory of the Blending of the Races, Applied to the American White Man and Negro''. The pamphlet was ostensibly by an [[Abolitionist]] who was in favor of "miscegenation" and the complete blending of the races, claiming it was the goal of the [[Republican Party]] to make the [[American]] race the finest on earth by "engrafting upon our stock the negro element". However, later in [[1864]] it was revealed that the pamphlet was a [[hoax]] written by two [[Liberals]] named George Wakeman and David Goodman Croly working for the [[Democrat Party]]. They hoped to bring ridicule upon the Republicans, the [[Lincoln]] administration, and the [[Conservative]] Abolitionist movement in general by playing on the irrational fears and bigotry of their fellow racists.<ref>[http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/Hoaxipedia/Miscegenation_Hoax/ "Miscegenation Hoax"], Museum of Hoaxes.</ref>

This ploy by Liberals of attacking Conservatives by impersonating them and writing incendiary or embarrassing (in their mind) works is common among Liberals, [[deceit]] being the primary [[Liberal tools | tool of the Liberal]].
