It's worth your time . . .


I often wonder whether concepts such as "facts" and "truth" are simply mere annoyances to right-wing conservatives.

The hissy fit they've been throwing this week about President Barack Obama's plans to speak to the nation's schoolchildren on Sept. 8, which they claim is nothing more than an attempt by Obama to "indoctrinate" the poor little children in the ways of socialist governing and policy-making, certainly has been a discussion, on their part at least, that has been utterly devoid of anything resembling the truth. Par for the course though.

PolitiFact.com does Americans who are truly interested in hearing the truth a tremendous favor by analyzing, dissecting and then summarily destroying the right-wing's claims about the upcoming Obama speech.

If the truth affects you in the same way sunlight affects a vampire, I strongly advise you not to read this article.
