Correlation vs. Causation (expand for best view)

Although he didn't author it, Mark Twain famously wrote,
"There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics."
I saw the below awesome graphic on Reddit a couple days ago. Boy, was Twain right: if you do it right, you can prove just about anything with numbers. Just imagine the possibilities!

Oh wait...you don't have to imagine. It's campaign season!
