Not to argue, but in these days of truth are lies and lies are truth, what you hear is not what was said, what you saw is not what you truly saw, what you read is not what you think you read, and alternative facts, I respectfully disagree with your assessment.

A recent post reminded me of this. The three great lies.
1. The check is in the mail.
2. Yes, I'll respect you in the morning.
3. I'm from the government, and I'm here to help you.

Kind of like the four Ain'ts
1. Ain't nothing as sure as change.
2. Ain't no security.
3. Ain't nothing fair.
4. Ain't no justice.
Just about everything that happens falls in there somewhere.

9. This car was only driven to church, by a little old lady.
10. Hard work is its own reward.
11. One size fits all.

No confusion whatsoever. Common sense is only right wing if you are too far to the left.

From my military yrs: the two biggest lies are:
#1, from the IG to the commander: Hi, I’m here to help you.
#2, from the commander to the IG: Hi, I’m glad to see you.
Doesn’t get any bigger than that.

I've heard a different version of this but it is not 'polite'.
One of them was, ' It's only a Cold Sore!"
