The Purpose of this Site

We're tired of all the lies, distortions, and unfounded claims being made by political candidates on the right, and so we're going to fight back with the truth.

We're not out to tell you who you should vote for. Our candidate of choice is pretty clear, but you should have the right to choose the candidate who you think is best. We simply want to make sure you know the whole truth. The GOP relies on being able to spoon-feed false truths and soundbites to people who don't do any fact-checking. We want you to have the facts, and decide who's right for yourself.

You won't have to take our word for it. Our claims will be backed up by links to information from reputable sources, such as articles in the main stream media, recognized non-partisan fact-checking web sites, actual video clips of events, etc.

Political candidates should be held to a higher level of accountability, and yet they are allowed to make baseless and unfounded allegations with no repercussions whatsoever. That stops now. If John McCain wants to wage a campaign based on issues and substance, we would welcome that. But character assassinations and misleading claims need to be called out and corrected. And that's why we're here.

It is important that everyone know the truth, and the Internet is the quickest way to get the truth out. Don't let this campaign be decided by lies and negativity like so many have before. Please forward this information to everybody and anybody.

Spread the truth. We need real change in Washington.
