Tonight while filling in for Bill O’reilly on the O’reilly Factor, Laura Ingraham fasely claimed the Bush tax cuts led to the highest revenue in history. Of course, this is an obvious lie, considering George Bush’s presidency has given us nothing but debt. For example, when George W. Bush came into office, America was left with a surplus, and national debt of 5.6 trillion dollars. By the time Bush left office, our national debt was at 10.6 trillion.(not including the cost of the two wars.) It doesn’t take a genuis to see Laura Ingraham is obviously lying. I’d be willing to bet the Heritage Foundation, or some other right-wing institution came up with this lie. Below is the clip from tonight’s O’reilly factor.
