It's not for us to judge which candidate has strayed further from the facts. What we can say is that both of them are right to say the other has been untruthful.

    So if your accusing Factcheck.org of being bias, I challenge you to find another source of information that is considered bi-partison that criticizes both parties the way Factcheck does. Snopes would be the closest I could find, which doesn't really get into politics as much as Factcheck does.

    FactCheck.Org is owned by the Annenberg group of Chicago! Talk about a conflict of interest! And Obama has been telling people on the trail to check out the site to verify his opponents claims. Funny, every time that he endorsed something, it turns out to be a part of his spin machine! Like he raised objections in the primaries when Indiana required photo I.D. to vote. He Protested that It took away people's right to vote! I
    knew then and there that he was up to no good! America, wake up from the MASS HYPNOSIS!

    This is so true about how the election is already bought and paid for:
