This new (searchable) database charts conservatives' dishonesty and compares it with the truth. Each conservative quote will be matched against well-documented facts, so users can get a more accurate picture of the issues.

Yeah, we need to get "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" in there so we don't lose sight of the really important, current stuff.

I'm not starting another name calling match with you, but do your really believe that all Republicans are evil to the bone and Dems are as pure as the driven snow? Dude, come to the real world. There are scum bags on both sides of the political fence.

They're all the same anywhow. They are all liars and crooks. They're the only extortionists and thiefs that can get away with it though.

Sure, the Democratic Party has had its share of bad apples, but if we focus on current events and on the here and now, there's no way the Dems can even begin to match the level of corruption and criminality exhibited by today's GOP.

Make a list of all the GOP corruption, frauds, felonies, and scandals of the last five years and then show me how the Dems have matched it during the same period if you want to try to prove me wrong.

Further, show me the last time the Dems were as corrupt as today's GOP when they held power.

The problem recently is that the Democratic crooks have been losing elections to the Republican crooks. You can't get busted in high office if you can't manage to get elected to high office.

So you're saying Democrats can't be corrupt or engage in criminal activities unless they are the majority party?

Guess that means we don't get to see the list I asked for.

Guess that means we don't get to see the list I asked for.If someone went through the effort of making a list, you would 1. Not believe it. 2. Rip the sources for the list 3. Say it doen't matter because the Dems are not in power.

Well, if things stay the same I think people will put the Dems back in power of congress, then we will see if they are any better or not.

Or maybe it's just that you can't produce such a list and you know it?

Anyway, I tried using the database to see how it worked.

I selected "Bush" and "9/11" and found this tidbit:

Topic: September 11th

Speaker: Bush, George - President

Date: 5/17/2002

Quote/Claim:

"Had I known that the enemy was going to use airplanes to kill on that fateful morning, I would have done everything in my power to protect the American people. [Source: White House Web site]"

Fact:

"White House officials acknowledged that U.S. intelligence officials informed President Bush weeks before the Sept. 11 attacks that bin Laden's terrorist network might try to hijack American planes.” - ABC, 3/16/02

A Congressional inquiry into intelligence activities before Sept. 11 found 12 reports over a seven-year period suggesting that terrorists might use airplanes as weapons. - NY Times, 4/4/04"

But that's not what I asked for.

I asked for a list of crimes, scandals, etc., involving Dems for the past five years (and to compare this with the list of GOP crimes, scandals, corruption, etc., over the same period.)
