The Wal-Mart Foundation, run by some Walton family members, has given some money to conservative think tanks such as the Heritage Foundation and The American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research.
Here's an interesting paragraph:
The American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, for example, has received more than $100,000 from the foundation in the last three years, a fraction of the more than $24 million it raised in 2004 alone.
When is there going to be a Times expose on the Ford Foundation (Ford Motors severed its ties to the group years ago), the Brookings Institute or the Center for American Progress? Those liberal (or radical in the case of the Ford Foundation) must have some intriguing donors.
John J. Miller of the NRO Corner has more.
