While we all very capable of discerning the 'recovery' facts from the peddled recovery fiction throughout President Obama's reign... ...a close up over the last six months suggests things are getting worse in a hurry. As The Economic Collapse blog's Michael Snyder details, while most people seem to think that since the stock market has rebounded significantly in recent weeks that everything must be okay, that is not true at all. Has the U.S. economy gotten better over the past six months or has it gotten worse? In this article, you will find solid proof that the U.S. economy has continued...

And on behalf of The People, I need to point out how completely wrong some of his "facts" are. Mitt Romney’s much publicized speech last week was all anti-Trump. That’s his choice, but he cannot choose to misrepresent the facts. Also, he chose to ignore the overwhelming number of people who have given Donald Trump the lead in the Republican delegate count so far. Romney’s first false accusation was that Trump’s domestic policies would send this economy into a deep recession. Really! Trump’s published tax plan helps the economy with lower rates and simplicity. Secondly, his just released health insurance...

Trump has dropped many such payloads through the first seven months of his campaign....And so, to make life a little easier for the attack dogs of the GOP Establishment, we've assembled the Collected Truth Bombs of Donald J. Trump. Climb into your bunker and hear them roar! *George W. Bush did not keep us safe. *The world would be safer if Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gadhafi were still in power. *If we topple Bashar al-Assad, he could be replaced by something worse. *NAFTA hurt blue-collar workers. *Hedge-fund managers can afford to pay more taxes. *Bill Kristol is terrible at predicting...

“The truth is like a lion; you don’t have to defend it. Let it loose; it will defend itself.†– St. Augustine Moral clarity is the ability to see things as they really are. This type of clarity is only possible when one believes what is true. America lost her way when she chose the lies of moral relativism over the moral clarity of truth. For to dispose of truth in favor of moral relativism creates moving targets of the standards by which society must agree to live. If we cannot call something “evil,†how can we refer to anything...

The View has become the center of controversy once again, this time after Raven-Symoné admitted that she would not hire someone with a 'black' name. 'I'm not about to hire you if your name is Watermelondrea,' the former child star said to her shocked co-hosts during Thursday's episode of the ABC show. 'It's just not going to happen,' she continued. 'I'm not going to hire you.' Raven's comment came while the women discussed a recent UCLA study published in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior, which found that Americans make racist assumptions based on people's names. Whoopi Goldberg introduced the...

3% – Planned Parenthood (hereafter PP) often claims that that abortions account for only 3 percent of the services they provide. While this may be technically true, it is a highly misleading statistic. PP considers an "activity" any separate action, exam, or test they do for a patient. If patient comes in for an abortion they may also give her an HIV test, a STI test, a pap test, medication to prevent a urinary tract infection, and some oral contraceptives. PP counts each as an "activity." Even if a pregnant woman came to a PP clinic specifically for an abortion,...

President Obama is under fire from The Washington Post’s fact-checker over a series of recent far-fetched gun claims, including suggesting the country’s homicide rate is higher than that of other industrialized nations “by like a mile.” The comments, made during a stop in South Carolina last week, earned the president three out of four "Pinocchios" -- the fact-checker's scale for measuring inaccuracy.

THE internet is stuffed with garbage...Google has devised a fix – rank websites according to their truthfulness. Google's search engine currently uses the number of incoming links to a web page as a proxy for quality, determining where it appears in search results. So pages that many other sites link to are ranked higher. This system has brought us the search engine as we know it today, but the downside is that websites full of misinformation can rise up the rankings, if enough people link to them. A Google research team is adapting that model to measure the trustworthiness of...

Liberals aren't going to let mere facts get in the way of a good story. A Politico magazine article on the UVA rape accusation debacle, in which the accuser's allegations have unraveled, quotes a student newspaper editor thusly: "to let fact checking define the narrative would be a huge mistake."

My daughter Heather, visiting from her home Madison, Wis., for Thanksgiving, took me by surprise with a peculiar request: She asked me to take her to Ferguson. All the more peculiar was the fact that this was a week ago yesterday, while the ruins of gutted businesses still smoldered from fires set barely 36 hours before. Heather wasnÂ’t asking just some random dad. She knew that mine had been one of the Post-DispatchÂ’s fingers on that communityÂ’s pulse since the shooting of Michael Brown on Aug. 9. IÂ’m police and court editor here, which accounts for why I havenÂ’t had...

And this is really not the time to be demanding that people resign. We’ve heard a lot of unfounded talk about Ebola in recent days. I don’t sense a widespread panic out there, and I’m certainly not panicking myself, but if people don’t know the real facts, they might not have the most responsible reactions to what’s going on. So let’s review some basic facts: When is Ebola contagious? It’s only contagious when an infected person is showing symptoms, such as fever, vomiting, flu-like body-aches and diarrhea.

NEW YORK (AP) — Less than a month away from the midterm elections, President Barack Obama's campaign schedule is getting off to a late start. Even while he raises money for Democrats this week from coast to coast, Obama will steer clear of any public campaign events with Democratic candidates, which would hand Republicans easy opportunities to saddle their opponents with Obama's own political baggage. The White House says Obama will start appearing with candidates as early as next week, but as of yet, no events have been announced. Obama headed first on Tuesday to New York, where police shut...

Do Americans understand the scientific consensus about issues like climate change and evolution? At least for a substantial portion of the public, it seems like the answer is no. The Pew Research Center, for instance, found that 33 percent of the public believes “Humans and other living things have existed in their present form since the beginning of time” and 26 percent think there is not “solid evidence that the average temperature on Earth has been getting warmer over the past few decades.” Unsurprisingly, beliefs on both topics are divided along religious and partisan lines. For instance, 46 percent of...
