Changes to Big Lies : The Right-Wing Propaganda Machine... by Joe Conason

oe Conason, whose examination of the President Clinton witch-hunt was a major national bestseller, takes on the most common fallacies propounded by the right and exposes them as the smear tactics they really are. Some 'lies of the right' that Conason deftly debunks include: -George Bush is a compassionate conservative -Liberals control the media -Democrats are spendthrifts who bust budgets and stifle economic growth -Conservatives are all about family values and virtues while liberals promote immorality and vice -Bill Clinton is the root of all evil. The perfect rebuttal to books such as Bias or Slander, Big Lies is essential reading in today's political climate, and a book many are eagerly awaiting.
