All the Right Lies (Paperback)

ALL THE RIGHT LIES calls out the American Right and the GOP for their addiction to untruth. On the economy, climate change, health care, voters' rights or any other issue, right wing politicians constantly and repeatedly lie to the American people. And they know they are doing it. This agenda is decades old. Reagan hawked "Supply Side Economics" to the country when even he knew it was a fraud. Right leaning politicians declared that the Clinton tax increases on the wealthy would wreck the economy. They created 23 million jobs and handed a surplus to G.W. Bush. He immediately squandered it on tax cuts for millionaires. He then wasted billions more on a war aimed at settling family scores and founded on lies. ALL THE RIGHT LIES exposes this fabric of studied dishonesty. A party, once the champion of equal rights, equality and fair play, has devolved into the plaything of plutocrats. A movement, once the champion of fiscal responsibility, has sold the country out to the Bush Tax Cuts, the single largest contributor to the deficit they never cease to decry. The American Right has been hijacked by the American Rich. If you doubt it, read this book.
