Retroactionaries

Here's another example, in the person of Eric Cantor and his "warm Southern-gentleman demeanor" (per Leslie Stahl) and his less warm press secretary, via Hunter at Daily Kos: Reagan didn't raise taxes.



Sounds like a lie to you and me, but they say it with such fervor! But then again if you're seeing it backwards, well! He never raised taxes before he got elected, did he? I mean, except in California, and that was only after he got elected there. He just got purer, and purer, as time did the opposite of going on, until he was flying those planes in imaginary World War II and inventing baseball games and all.
