Musings of a Thoughtful Conservative

A Wisconsin conservative Christian writes about, well, whatever I feel like

Political Fact checking sites

Always a tricky process because it depends on your view of the facts, but here are some you may find handy (and will be found in my sidebar):

PoliFact – a new site by the St. Petersburg, FL Times and CQ Politics. Includes articles, the Truth-o-meter, attack file, candidates, our rulings issues and link to the two sponsoring sites.

FactCheck – the Annenberg Fact Check has been around for awhile. It has a feed and an e-mail update available.

techPresident – This site goes to the technical side of fact checking. For example, one recent article looks at exposing Clinton sock puppets.

The Washington Post FactChecker -  This is actually a blog (probably some of the rest could be considered blogs also) among the WaPo’s other blogs.

    Things might have changed, but when I lived in St. Pete and Tampa we called the St. Petersburg Times Pravda West.

    Heh. I never heard it called that, but it did have a decidedly leftist slant when I lived there also.
