Politifact is a liberal douche bag. I voted. Felt the same way I did when I voted for McCain, but I voted.

Al Gore should win every year, but the POTUS has topped even the man-bear-pig this year!

If Bush had told the lies Obama told - it would be a clean sweep. Since Obama a dem, it'll be a game of 'equivalency'...

Nearly all of the nominees are conservatives.

FReeped nonetheless (Obama’s “keep your plan” nominee).

No, it will be because he is black as white people intentionally made bad things happen to him only because he is black. I am being serious. If Hussein lied, white people caused him to lie. No matter how bad it is, it wouldn't have happened if he was white. And, if you don't believe that, you are a racist for not seeing it. How often have we heard that? Over and over and over.

The only way this country will succeed, according to the “upper” black people, is if all whites become poor and only black people run the country and have the money. I wish that were a joke, but it isn't. I have lived 80 years, and have never seen racial hatred like this. Because I am old and female, do you think I would be worried about walking by some black males grouped together? You bet I would and I wouldn't do it. One of them trying to knock me out when I didn't see it coming would likely kill me before I could react.

If you like your health care, you can keep it. Obama repeatedly made this claim in previous years; back then we rated it Half True. When people got cancellation notices in the individual market this year, Obama claimed, “What we said was, you can keep it if it hasn’t changed since the law passed.” That got a Pants on Fire.
