Re: Agenda based
I'd bet a week's pay that the 25 percent number will continue to be used in political rhetoric, just because it sounds good.
There are dozens of cases where a number like this is proven blatantly false, but those with an axe to grind couldn't care less. Examples include the 1.5 million dead children in Iraq, the "ten percent" figure for gays in the population, any number of canards spread by the anti-gun groups, and the huge loads of statistical crap spewed by organized feminists.
