The exception would be liar. No politician has never told a lie.

As an aside, I grew up in Britain and we did learn quite a lot about the American Revolution in class. Obviously it would not have the same emphasis as here, where it is the foundation story of the whole country. Since I was in Scotland, that kind of reverence was reserved for our own wars of independence, but we did cover it in quite a lot of detail, though not until high school. Oh, and that azz-kicking, we did learn that a lot of it was done with stylish French leather boots, since they were still sore about the Seven Years War and farting in our general direction just wasn't doing it for them smile


But how are you obtaining the UNDERLYING facts? You had to have read them somewhere or heard them somewhere. Somebody had to write those "facts"

Let me give you an example: https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.co...riminal-butcherer-of-women-and-children/
