This so unnerved conservatives that they created their own alternate reality with Conservapedia.
Some of the standard conservative lies and disinformation include:
1. The US is a Christian nation.
2. Thomas Jefferson is a bad example of a Founder.
3. The Civil War was fought over states rights.
4. Democrats caused the Great Depression and the Great Recession.
5. Hitler was a socialist
6. and so forth and so on.
The latest GOP effort at disinformation is that the Compassionate conservative, George W. Bush, was really a progressive exactly like Obama. If Bush had been conservative enough, all of the terrible things that happened when he was president would not have occurred.
What will be the next big conservative lie? Perhaps that Dick Cheney is a socialist? How dumb does the GOP think Americans are? Are conservatives trying to emulate Adolf Hitler who said:
"Great liars are also great magicians" and "If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed."
Rightardia's writers has a lot of experience with conservatives. Most are ideologues and they don't want to be confused with the facts. This is the primary reason the Bush administration was so ineffective. Decisions were made based on ideology and 'gut feelings' rather than by facts and logic.
Thank goodness for Obama!
