Starting with the Facts

It can be difficult to discuss or argue over opinions when the one you are arguing with is starting with un-facts.  The list is a long one, but here are a few things that some on the Right believe to be true.  Some things can be repeated often enough that they become a sort of legends, or pseudo-truisms.

• Saddam Hussein was involved in the 9/11 attack (duh).
• Taxes have increased under Obama (taxes have been cut).
• Obama was president when Wall Street was bailed out (W was president).
• Reagan never raised taxes (yes he did!).
• Lowering taxes decreases deficits and creates jobs (we should be drowning in jobs if that were true).
