Who's telling the truth??


And the answer to that question is... Democrats.  It's unlikely to be Republicans, and it's certainly not the Lyin' Twosome, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan.

Democrats' truth vs. GOP lies

Two really good extended quotes from this article:

A. "There are other examples the fact checkers have looked at but the point is, while Republicans were widely condemned by fact checkers for the blatant lies repeated throughout their convention, Democrats were barely slapped on the wrist by fact checkers. This is not because the media has a bias toward Democrats but because, apparently, Democrats have a bias toward telling the truth."

and the concluding paragraph:

B.  "It may also be that Democrats don’t lie because they don’t have to. The Obama campaign has a good and compelling record on which to run and an opposing party whose extremist agenda for America is so frightening that it requires no embellishment. In other words, perhaps Democrats told the truth at their convention because the truth favors the Democrats."

And remember that I've mentioned previously the focus group results which indicated that real people DON'T BELIEVE that Romney/Ryan could actually support and push for the extreme positions that they are  running on.

Scary times, people.  Scary times.
