Back in 2008, they said this:
And fastforward to today: It's their lie of the year!
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/ ... ep_it.htmlAnd not just that, but they try to sugar coat it by saying it wasn't necessarily the biggest lie, just the one with the greatest impact. The lady further lies by trying to justify her giving it an earlier rating of "half truth." Wow, and people think politifact is fair and balanced!

I'm typically very conservative but this is just a partisan hitpiece. The takeaway should not be that Obama is a liar, but rather that there have been unforeseen and in intended consequences. This is what true conservatives like myself have been saying, but it seems that partisan scum want to drown out our reasonable discussion with sleazy character assassination.

something they predicted five years ago is supposedly wrong and this makes them biased?
the premise of this thread is off to a great start.

Doesn't this show Polit-Fact is biased towards conservatives? When they made an impartial assessment, they didn't deem it false and even explained it.
When 2013 rolled around and conservatives and the media got up in arms about it, they changed their stance to "Lie of the Year."
My actual opinion is that too many of these fact checking websites aren't biased. Their problem is they are trying to appear unbiased and in this attempt, end up just bullshitting and omitting things.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This propaganda was all over the FOX Nation recently so what a surprise that here we have our friend now parroting what they feed him on a daily basis.
Hey, did you hear the latest: Politifact iz librulz! They're not to be trusted!
See, if you buy into this, then there's yet another fact-checking source that consistently embarrasses the frauds and liars that our friend here supports is out of the way.
Nice try.
Epic fail.
Why don't you just spell it out for us DWBH and save us the time: any source that doesn't parrot the Party line is librul and "biased," in your Jim Jones world. The only fair an' balanced jurnlism you ken find in this flower of paradise right now is on FOX thank God, where they know that Jesus is white an' the medias is librul.
