Just in case any of you ever believed that Politifact, like every other journalistic endeavor of recent vintage, wouldn’t devolve into yet another arm of leftwing advocacy.

Which of course you didn’t.  But you might know a few idiots who do.  And if that’s the case, disabuse them.

    The left are so far gone. Some woman tried to support her point (that Ryan was a lying liar) by linking a Think Progress piece.

    Yea. Conversation over. I don’t waste my time with idiots.

  2. Danger says:

    Let’s just refer to Politifact as what they really are:

    Politigranda

  3. McGehee says:

    Paella-ganda.

  4. DarthLevin says:

    McGehee, you are hereby assessed a fine of 400 Quatloos for invoking a subtle reference to Li’l Willie, the serenader of cats.

  5. leigh says:

    Beat me to it, Darth.

  6. Danger says:

    Especially since Li’l Willie will find the (actually any) reference flattering;)

  7. Squid says:

    They’re just trying to help us all become sane. Where’s George? He can explain it better than I.

  8. George Orwell says:

    I always thought it was “Politifark.” My bad.

  9. jcw46 says:

    Can we just abuse them?

  10. George Orwell says:

    Snopes.com reports “Politifact a fact-checking organization: FALSE.”

  11. John Bradley says:

    Paella-ganda.

    But they are they awesome? The best ones are, I’ve been told.

  12. William says:

    Just makes it all the harder to argue with people. “But do you like the service at the DMV? Do you think the nation should go in that direction?”

    “Forget it! Reagan voted for higher taxes eleven times, and you’re not against that!”

    It’s a good day for releasing bad news, and the presidents’ lawyers on Thursday announced they were dropping two long-standing criminal investigations of CIA officials.

    The investigations were politically unpopular with the public, and potentially risky for President Barack Obama, whose relatively high poll ratings rest in part on his successful killing of Osama bin Laden in May 2010.

  14. EBL says:

    George: Didn’t you right about the Ministry of Politifact in 1984?

    But they are they awesome? The best ones are, I’ve been told.

    Especially when they’re eaten with accompanying lute music.

    des·per·a·tion/?desp??r?SH?n/ noun: 1. desperate recklessness. 2. the act of despairing or the state of being desperate

    Actually both 1 & 2 fit those two broads nicely. Not to mention President Tee Time.

    Oh. And anybody else see Dennis Miller pimp slap Obama lackey Jay Leno the other night. Good stuff.

    And I love how, according to Leno, Todd Aikin is “The True Republican Platform” now.

  17. Mike LaRoche says:

    I love Miller’s description of Sandra Fluke as “Moan of Arc”.

    how about “florence massengill”

  19. Lamontyoubigdummy says:

    Ha! ha..h-ha…HA HA HA (COUGH) HA HA… HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! (too much…passes out)

    This is gonna be friggin’ great.

    With the exception of Bill Clinton (and sure, that’s arguable), it’s a straight up “Murder’s Row” of failure & baby killers.

  20. Pablo says:

    That really is a sad slate of affairs they’ve got going on there.

  21. Pablo says:

    Hey, shouldn’t Debbie Waterhead-Schlitz be emceeing the whole mess?

    The new ministry of truth.

  23. Pellegri says:

    The comments on that piece are beautiful, as usual.

  24. EBL says:

    And I thought Rubio and Eastwood were great. Some lefty friends called and said, who is that guy introducing Romney, he was really good. I said, that guy will be President some day. http://evilbloggerlady.blogspot.com/2012/08/make-our-day-marco-and-clint.html

    Paul Ryan, “More Dangerous than Sarah Palin“, says Der Spiegel to its English readers.

  26. geoffb says:

    DOJ working with/controlling Occupy activists in Tampa?

  27. sdferr says:

    J. Christian Adams is already thinking about what it will take to clean house at the DOJ once Holder is gone. Won’t be a simple matter, he says. Makes me sick to think of the termites the Obama people have buried in agencies across the District and Nation.

  28. happyfeet says:

    things what are also more dangerouser than Sarah Palin are include ebola, terrorisms, ennui, chronic eating disorders, sulfates, and Starr Jones before breakfast

  29. happyfeet says:

    oops I think she only has the one r

  30. sdferr says:

    I don’t think Der Spiegel‘s English readers would have known even any two of those hf, do you?

  31. geoffb says:

    Dangerous to whom? Or what? Aha.

    His stark brand of conservatism is bad news for the socially weak.
    […]
    Romney’s running mate has a battle plan ready … It is nothing less than a declaration of war on social solidarity in America.

    Good buzzwordyness.

  32. sdferr says:

    Seems to me geoffb that the Spiegel piece is simply one tendentious lie following on the heels of another. But that’s to be expected nowadays.

  33. McGehee says:

    It is nothing less than a declaration of war on social solidarity in America.

    The Math Nerd Militia is going to take over the Cool Table and the popular kids won’t get to sit there anymore.

  34. Pellegri says:

    Social solidarity brought us tumblr.

    I think we need to take it out back and shoot it quietly before it maims anyone else.
