10. I have long believed that the RNC propagates these lies.
During the late days of the 2004 election I was getting one a day from various right wing friends. I literally could not debunk them fast enough!

The tone and style are very similar leading me to believe they have a common source.

Tone is attack, use emotion, question patriotism and class warfare.

Style is us against them. We're good people and alike, they are different. Use some "evidence" like citing names, i.e. "the law was signed by Bill Clinton . . ." or "a friend brought this to my attention . . ."

I am convinced that this is Rove's entry into internet marketing. It's ideal. Anonymous, non attributable, free, and useful idiots spread it like crazy.
