Last night during the debate McCain revealed his new plan for the mortgage crisis. The problem is, it seems like he pulled it out of thin air and it went completely against something earlier he said. Here is what he said during the debate:
“As president of the United States, Alan, I would order [...]

I won’t say much about the debates here, because, well, you should have watched and decided for yourself who won.  I think going in, everyone was expecting McCain to wipe the floor with Obama.  It’s long been known McCain is a good debator, but we didn’t see that tonight.  Obama only needed to hold his [...]

Here is a great quote from Barack Obama speaking in Elko, Nevada.

PALIN: “Our opponents say, again and again, that drilling will not solve all of America’s energy [...]

John McCain continues his streak of spreading lies by producing a new commercial criticizing Obama’s tax plan. FactCheck.org, an independent organization that investigates claims from both sides, finds that the ad by McCain is completely misleading and flat out lies. Don’t be fooled by McCain’s ad. Unless you are rich, you will [...]
