Republicans Stretch Truth in Debate Salvos


Is stretching the truth any different from lying?  And since when has the truth had much to do with politics?

If you are one of those odd people for whom truth matters, there is the Bloomberg article Republicans Stretch Truth in Debate Salvos. Of course, I am not saying that Bloomberg always sticks to the truth either.

There is some truth to the thought that systems involving human beings don’t just respond to what is true.  They also respond to what people perceive to be true.

There is no single lie whose correction I can quote to give you a general sense for the content of the article.  The lies and corrections are wide ranging.
