One of the things that have been bothering me during the recent Heath Care debate has been how the conservatives have been able to manufacture false premises about the Heath Care bill, such as "death panels", and still be able to stick to these premises even in the face of direct evidence to the contrary. I recently came upon this article at phyorg.com which is based on research published in the journal Sociological Inquiry that I think shines a light on the health care situation as well as conservative rationalization and disregard for facts. The article can be found here.
