Politics uses Science the same way that Politics uses Religion. It's just an appeal to authority. I think there are facts - there is an objective reality. There are situations that are win/win but more often we have every incentive to create or create the perception that situations are win/lose. Whenever the situation is win/lose and someone is pointing to objective facts the hair on your neck should go up and you should acknowledge that you might be in a minefield. The incentives and the goals of all the participants in those kind of Political situations can be strange and not readily apparent.
