Fact checking

I don’t have the energy to watch the morning shows but “This Week” is being fact-checked this week, so I may try to tune in.

    Clever photoshopping series of Palin and Bachman as Lucy and Ethel, with apologies to the latter two. The next time that one of you put up another Palin post, you should use one.

    Rudy 911 is on that show. That should be interesting.

    @mistermix:

    The more interesting thing is, why is he on that show?

    @Cat Lady: Because they needed someone politically irrelevant on which to test their fact checking mechanism?

    @jwb:

    President McCain wasn’t available?

    Isn’t Big Dog on with Tapper today? Should be interesting. Gotta say, Doug, he’s been a bit better with the false equivalency stuff since you called him our. I think you embarrassed him.

    @Cat Lady: But you forget that the media actually believes that McCain is president, and so he is anything but politically irrelevant. Rudy—at this point, he’s a joke (though a reliable one, which is why he is still called on to these shows at regular intervals) even to the MSM.

    @SIA: Doug had a post about Tapper and he appeared to defend himself. I don’t have time to research it now but will try to find it later. It is definitely a “must read” blog.
