I do not give one big Sxxx if you agree on not to my post above. Before you start quoting any rebuttal from the Annenburg Public Policy Center, you may want to know the ideology behind this group.
FactCheck.org is Sponsored by Decidedly LEFTIST Organization: ANNENBERG Public Policy Foundation

The Truthfulness website called FactCheck.org is itself decidedly BIASED toward the LEFT as the discussion that follows points out.
The ANNENBERG Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania is the organization behind the FactCheck.org website that is being consulted OFTEN by voters and media personalities alike to help them form opinions on the truthfulness of the claims being made by the McCain and Obama political ads as well as statements made on the Campaign Trail and in Presidential and Vice Presidential debates.
Kathleen Hall Jamieson, Ph.D. is the Director of the ANNENBERG Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania which is the organization BEHIND the FactCheck.org truthfulness website.
Dr. Jamieson's newest book entitled Echo Chamber: Rush Limbaugh and the Conservative Media Establishment is a MAJOR HIT PIECE against the Conservative voices in the media on television, radio, and in print. View the books Table of Contents:
http://www.annenbergpublicpolicycenter.org/echochamber/In Dr. Jamiesons biography on the APPC website, she states that during the 2004 general election she regularly appeared on NOW With Bill Moyers and The NewsHour, and throughout the 2008 campaign is appearing regularly on Bill Moyers Journal.
http://www.annenbergpublicpolicycenter.org/Bio.aspx?myUsername=kjamiesonIn a 2003 interview with BuzzFlash.com, Bill Moyers said, "The corporate right and the political right declared class warfare on working people a quarter of a century ago and they've won."
Moyers went on to say that the American public has failed to react this fact because it is, "distracted by the media circus and news which has been neutered or politicized for partisan purposes." In support of this statement Moyers referred to "the paradox of Rush Limbaugh [who is] ensconced in a Palm Beach mansion massaging the resentments across the country of white-knuckled wage earners, who are barely making ends meet in no small part because of the corporate and ideological forces for whom Rush has been a hero...
Whats the bottom line? FactCheck.org is a LEFT-BIASED organization that has sold itself as Politically NEUTRAL to Americas voters and media personnel.
The fact is, the ANNENBERG Public Policy Center (APPC), the sponsoring agency behind FastCheck.org, is itself supported by the same foundation, the ANNENBERG FOUNDATION, that Bill Ayers secured the 49.2 million dollars from to create the Chicago ANNENBERG Challenge philanthropic organization in which Barack Obama was the founding Chairman of the Board for and Ayers served as the grant writer of and co-Chair of for its two operating arms.
Does the LEFT have no conscience at all?
NOW, I do not make up fables and distort the truth. I research my post and verify items before I make a post on OPP. Truth is Truth where ever it is found; we will let the political chips fall where they may. If you elect to accept conjecture, distortions, and political spin as truth, that is your burden. Perform you own research and reach your own conclusions. I have already done my due diligence and reached my own conclusions, which are exactly as i have posted.
