I'm NOT claiming factcheck..org is biased and/or inaccurate. I think its legit. I was just saying that Neo-Cons will NEVER trust any site that ever says anything unfavorable about one of their own - because in their heads "it surely must be a liberal lie." Republicans can do no wrong and anyone who says otherwise is a lying. The sooner you learn that the better.

Until we stop putting "D" or "R" next to people's names, nothing is going to change, the real issues will continue to be neglected, and positive legislature will continue to be blocked along party lines.

But yeah radical left people are the same way I've certainly noticed. For example Fox News is well known for their bias - but that doesn't mean that everything they say is patently false just because they said it. But to the kinda people that frequent DailyKOS etc - they pretty well think that anything from Fox is a lie. If Fox said the sky was blue, they wouldn't believe it.
