The place is a left-leaning small-time front from for liberals pretending to be another factcheck.org while actually publishing Democratic handouts. Were you fooled, or did you just think that the rest of us were stupid?

Here you are not reporting about CBS news but one of their bloggers who is being paid to have an opinion. So again I ask you - were you taken in or did you think the rest of us were that stupid?

Oh I am quite real. And I don't believe that everything any politician says is word-for-word truth. However, I try not to insult the other people in here by passing off fiction or half-truths as fact, and I prefer to read what a real fact-checking organization says. I am sure that right now, factcheck.org is preparing a report on Palin's speech and I am equally sure that it will be more thorough and less slanted than anything you have tried to pass off as "real." And I expect it will expose a number of exagerations, excuses, and outright lies - as they have done for all the candidates for some time.

One blogger cites another, cites another, cites Daily Kos. It's called throwing shit up against the side of the house to see if any of it sticks. Some of what is said in what he links to may be bang on, some of it may be as false as what they claim to be exposing, and some of it is, quite obviously, opinion. I haven't got time to read through that kind of crap when I know that a reputatble organization will take the time to delve down to the real truth - it does take time to do it right, you know. That's why factcheck.org has not yet published their analysis.

Or possibly she moved the funding from one section of the budget to another. I am NOT saying that happened, just that you don't know that it didn't and you cannot trust the source you are reading to tell you all the facts.

You don't understand, do you? What you are looking at is a press release from the Obama campaign. That is why you can't check the citations. You have to take their word for it that they gave you all of the facts. And if you believe that, I have got a Bridge to Nowhere, I'd like to sell you. ;)

You are hinting at a hasty generalization. You seriously believe that there is a conspiracy? Being real means you can not assume such things nor ignore the facts.

I see no evidence of that so far.

Never used the word, never had the thought. It's my experience that it's usually conspiracy believers who are quick to expect others to share their paranoias.

Surely if I was a figment of your imagination I would accept your every word as gospel. But if you really think you are talking to an imaginary being - how about a little homage to my supernaturalness. I'll send an usher around with an offering plate. . .

Did you think I wouldn't go there? Or just hoping, once again, that everyone was stupid enough to take your untruths as "real?" They called her on three things: 1. She was originally in favor of Bridge to Nowhere, and turned it down only when it looked like Congress was about to kill it. 2. She said Obama never authored major legislation, making sound like the legislation he helped push through Congress didn't happen. 3. She said McCain was a fighter pilot when he actually flew the A4 fighter/bomber. That last is of course, a shocking error. There were some minor caveats about other things she said, but they can be read at your link. It was hardly the shopping list of falsehoods you originally claimed came from a fact-checking organization but was actually a reprint of an Obama Campaign handout.

Lord, no. My women, for the most part, have been much prettier, with far more seductive voices, as well as tits and bellies not stretched out by five kids. Anyone who thinks that she's "hot" is too drunk to drive.

You may have noticed by now that the standard defense of Palin on this siteis to simply claim that all critics of Palin are liars. Makes it simple, doesn't it?

You most certainly did. You argued that such information was biased and deliberately pushed out as propaganda.

...that mortally intolerable truth; that all deep, earnest thinking is but the intrepid effort of the soul to keep the open independence of her sea; while the wildest winds of heaven and earth conspire to cast her on the treacherous, slavish shore.
