Eight Pieces of Propaganda

propaganda: information, esp. of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view.

here is three big ones:

1. the civil war was about slavery (if so, why did the North sell their slaves to the South beforehand and then fail to give equal rights until decades later?)
2. milk is a good source of calcium (milk tastes great, I enjoy it, but it is meant for baby cows – greens have more digestible calcium than milk)
3. children should receive immunization shots (are kids at more risk from getting a small dose of the virus from an immunization?)
4. we have a two party political system (since when? did you know after Ross Perot’s success the Republicrats stopped allowing independents to participate in the presidential debates?)
5. world war II was started by the Nazis’ (instead of a poor handling of the Germans after WW I)
6. the poor economy is only the fault of our government (what about the undeterred Federal Reserve?)
7. we need a federal department of education (really?  since when has anyone in washington helped my local schools better?)
8. and yes, global warming (how come we don’t hear anything about the studies of trees in siberia proving the earth warming being a fraud?)  i do believe micro-climate change and favor the idea of weather cycles.
