Are conservatives talking down America?
While talking about inflation at their Thanksgiving dinners, Glenn Beck falsely claimed that the government removed food and energy prices from its measure of inflation to hide rising prices.
He also claimed that a survey showed economists are "worried" about inflation, and that Social Security recipients are not receiving a cost-of-living adjustment because the government "changed the calculation."
Yes, Virginia, conservatives have been talking down America and have been doing it since they lost the 2008 elections.
Most of the Beck claims are false. See http://mediamatters.org/research/201011230057
