<< "What do you think of FACTCHECK.org. Lots of dems are now using that site as the gospel truth and citing it in their statments." >>

Well Rich, consider what you see from dems here on SI. How often do they get their "facts" completely wrong? How often do you see them continue to repeat thoroughly discredited lies even though they have been repeatedly confronted with the truth? By & large libs aren't concerned with the real truth anymore. If something fits their world view, facts really don't matter.

Sadly that is more often the case than anything else on threads where libs hang out.

Besides, you only need look at FactCheck.org's home page to see which way they lean. It's fairly obvious by their wording when "fact checking" conservatives vs. liberals....


Twice Chosen One of Time.com's, "25 Sites We Can't Live Without"

"Sunday Morning Missteps" - "Another Republican debate, with more false claims"

"Dems Face YouTube Interrogators" - "A few flubs in the Democrats' first "official" debate"

"Democratic Debate Part 3" - "Few errors, lots of dreaming."


"More Mitt Missteps" - "We find additional exaggerations and misstatements by Romney on the campaign trail."

"Don't Veto the Truth" - "Romney leaves out a heap of information when discussing his love of vetoes."

"Gingrich Distorts Immigration Bill" - "He claims it would grant residency to gang members and potential terrorists, contrary to what the bill actually says."



They lean left.

There is no question which way the site leans. Anyone can see the leftwing bias. At least they induce a dose of reality into the bias, which is more than it seems we can expect of many lefties. It certainly is more truthful than places like Media Matters.
