Sarah Palin On ABC News

  After watching a short clip of this interview, I think that it is safe to say that Mrs. Palin does not have a clue about world affairs, or Bush policy. She does have one Republican habit down pat, and that is answering a question without providing a real answer. Watch her below.

 

John McCain Twisting Factcheck Facts

  Nothing new here for this Republican piece of gutter garbage. McCain still telling lies on Obama, only now he's using factcheck.org's facts in a very twisted manner.

There's probably going to come a point when Straight Talk McCain's seeming inability to tell the truth devolves into farce. Maybe we're already there.

FactCheck.org is objecting to a McCain ad that attacks Obama using FactCheck.org as a source. The problem is, FactCheck never said what McCain claims they said.

A McCain-Palin ad has FactCheck.org calling Obama's attacks on Palin "absolutely false" and "misleading." That's what we said, but it wasn't about Obama.

Our article criticized anonymous e-mail falsehoods and bogus claims about Palin posted around the Internet. We have no evidence that any of the claims we found to be false came from the Obama campaign.

The McCain-Palin ad also twists a quote from a Wall Street Journal columnist. He said the Obama camp had sent a team to Alaska to "dig into her record and background." The ad quotes the WSJ as saying the team was sent to "dig dirt."

One would think that if you're going to lie about someone, lying about a fact-checking organization -- that uses "FactCheck" as their own freakin' name -- is probably not the best of choices. But what do I know?
