It's political season again and we're all hearing speeches and comments from the candidates.... it's somewhat hard to know which statements are worth while, and which ones are straight up political lies.
I heard about this site yesterday on NPR... and after visiting it I was pretty impressed. They categorize the politicians statements by "True", "Half True", "False", and "Pants on Fire".
I thought they did a good job of fact checking without being too one sided (both candidates have both done their fair share of stretching the truth).

Hope that helps with the barrage of political talk these days! It's too bad we have to rely on fact checking to know which messages are accurate.... Oh well, I guess that's politics.
