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.
