    speaking of FactCheck...


    FactCheck.org To McCain Camp: Stop Distorting Our Work

    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."

    Update, Sept. 10: Furthermore, the Obama campaign insists that no researchers have been sent to Alaska and that the Journal owes them a correction.

    What's the point? Jesus himself could come down and tell them the truth and they wouldn't listen.

    That would be pretty awesome.
    "Jesus is obviously biased to the left. He only thinks about the bottom income bracket, like some kind of communist!"
    or
    "Sure, quote a celebrity -- why should we care what Jesus or Oprah thinks?"
    or
    "Jesus has no expertise when it comes to advising a nation at war."

    all priceless possibilities.

    Jesus turned water to wine, a largely imported beverage prefered by the elite San Francisco values crowd. Hard-working Americans drink watered-down tasteless lager made from pristine springs originating in the Rockies. Jesus... wrong for beer drinkers, wrong for America.
