Red Herring
I don't know if you caught it or not, but DrudgeReport recently claimed that a source revealed that there was a major push underway to disband the IRS and set up a national Sales Tax. That has come to nothing in recent days, and has thus proven to be a Red Herring. Strategic Disinformation is just as useful in politics as it is in war, which is no surprise, because contrary to what Clausewitz believed, politics is war by other means. Count on many more incidents like the one mentioned to pop up as the election looms.
