Factcheck.ORG - thank you Darth Vader
I finally was able to get on the org site and found these recent articles featured on their home page interesting....

Bush Mischaracterizes Kerry's Health Plan
10.04.2004
Bush claims Kerry's plan puts "bureaucrats in control" of medical decisons, "not you, not your doctor." But experts don't agree with that.

The "Willie Horton" Ad Of 2004?
09.28.2004
Republican group's ad shows Osama, Kerry. It appeals to fear, and twists Kerry's record on defense, intelligence, Iraq.

Bush Ad Twists Kerry's Words on Iraq
09.27.2004
Selective use of Kerry's own words makes him look inconsistent on Iraq. A closer look gives a different picture.


But I do take issue with their analysis of the "false ad on Halliburton". You can twist this information how ever you want, but the fact is that the 189800 shares of Halliburton that he owns has increased in value $2,000,000 while he has been Vice President. Source:

Even if he plans on putting his earnings in a trust fund for Gay Republican Penguins, the ad put out by Kerry is factual.
