For Republican presidential candidates the phrase American Exceptionalism has taken on almost talismanic qualities. Newt Gingrich’s new book is titled, A Nation Like No Other: Why American Exceptionalism Matters. “American the Exceptional” is the title of a chapter in Sarah Palin’s book America by Heart.

1. Speaking of social compacts, it's nice to have so many graphs so you can

4. The graphs collectively depict the fruits of living in a society eaten up with a depraved and evil

RW agenda: Paul Ryan's budget encapsulates the extent of that evil and depravity, a budget that would further exacerbate virtually every thing rotten in our society, as depicted in the graphs. :patriot:

It's not a useful collection for convincing skeptics. Maybe people who don't pay attention, but they'd be swayed by anything.
