The constant psychological projection of right wingers

It's been a hallmark of sophistry since ancient greece.

Rich people could pay charismatic orators to go out and plead their case with misinformation and fallacy, and they were equally as effective as the people who got out their and told the truth.
They could take a true claim, claim the exact reverse of it, and gain equal footing in the public.

A more modern example that's popular is when Bush's people went after John Kerry's record of having actively served the United States military in Vietnam. They attacked a strength, that was true, with lies and misrepresentation.

Not just projection, but it's all just tools in that same toolbox.
I remember the “he is kinda french” attack. That was so stupid.
