Facts are stubborn things

Well this is depressing.

I've always looked at those "fact checking" sites as being similar to Wikipedia anyway - good starting points. Still, this one is unfortunate.

    I wouldn't say that their errors are more prominent in analysis of the left than the right. They are pretty much all around crappy in their analyses. Much like wikipedia, they are good for getting a broad picture, but not for any deep analysis of something. Then again, this is true of most internet "fact checking" sites. Snopes is another, but snopes certainly does have a political agenda.
