Politifact
I rely on Politifact as a source to help me sort through all the crap. They do all the hard work so I don't have to. But I've noticed a trend over the last year or so. Statements made by Obama in the past, which were mostly held up by Politifact, have changed in nature. Now they are mostly half-truths and lies. Interesting development...
Correction Mr. President, I DID build this, and please give Lurker a hug, we wouldn't want to damage his self-esteem.

Re: Politifact
You are no different than most people that have an absolute view on a party or candidate, you use and promote whatever source supports the opinion that you already have.
This is no reflection on Politifact, but your "Obama: not the change we wanted" or "Obama: not being transparent" or "Obama: broken promises" posts come up with predictable regularity.
Yep, we get it, you didn't vote for him.

I put money on 'drinking' rather than 'bored'.

Re: Politifact
You're wrong. There are spikes when Obama is actively campaigning but there's no recent trend different from any past one.
And I don't honestly know what's more lame. Me for spending the time making the graph proving you wrong or you for posting this inane thread in the first place.
