The Heritage Foundation has a record of producing manipulative reports, such as one for which the deputy chief actuary of the Social Security Administration wrote a memo pointing out "major errors in the methodology". From what I'm reading, that is actuary-speak for "damn lies". I'm quoting most of it.

Quote:
Paul Weyrich, the first director of The Heritage Foundation, and often described by his admirers as "the Lenin of social conservatism," seldom was at a loss for a military analogy: "If your enemy has weapons systems working and is killing you with them, you'd better have weapons systems of your own."
