Big Lies – Joe Conason

In Big Lies , Joe Conason rips through the ten most damaging lies perpetrated by the right wing propaganda machine. This scathing, fact-filled analysis debunks it all:

– The myth that Republicans are fiscal geniuses and champions of free enterprise.
– The right’s self-proclaimed monopoly on “family values.”
– The conservative smearing of liberals as unpatriotic and anti-American.
– And of course, the “compassionate conservatism” of George W. Bush. (It depends on the meaning of “compassionate.”)

Big Lies confronts right-wing slander and bias with a long-awaited, badly-needed counterpunch to the deceptions that have plagued American politics for a generation.
