Republicans Campaign Like Its 1984

Obama cut taxes on the middle class and small business. Republicans attack Obama for raising taxes.

Obama reduced the deficit (as proportion of gross domestic product) and increased it far less than the Republicans. Republicans attack Obama for spending and the deficit.

Obama saved the country from the Bush depression. Republicans attack Obama because of the state of the economy.

Orwell would have been very impressed with (and appalled by) the propaganda abilities of the right wing. Due to their dominance of broadcast media, they can spread propaganda more effectively than dictatorships of the past.
