As "King Henry," Hal uses Falstaffian eloquence to exaggerate Falstaff's failings, calling Falstaff "bolting-hutch of beastliness," "villainous abominable misleader of youth," and "white-bearded Sathan" (4.4.450, 462-63).
For instance I'm someone who believes Labour misleader Tony Blair is a disgrace to the office of Prime Minister yet still he enjoys a healthy majority.
Moveon.org's Misleader of the Day (www.misleader .org/daily_mislead) offers many other examples of deception perpetrated by the government in order to justify policies that have resulted in the destruction of environmental protections, basic labor rights and civil liberties, leading to financial gain for a few at the cost of creating suffering for much of the world.
Based on the Vice figure of old morality tales, Falstaff is variously described by Hal in jest as a "creature of bombast", a "devil" and an "abominable misleader of youth".
"For more than three decades, he lived a life of engagement with family and community, a life that offers very lean pickings to those who would tag him as an irresponsible misleader of youth."
