I have heard a lot of discussion about this site, www.factcheck.org. It seems like they are pretty partisan, but have some copies of the documents involved.

How do these people think they are being fair? They seem to be taking kerry's side even though the evidence shows the opposite.

What do people think about this site that gets quoted in media all the time.

Here is the article about the ad http://factcheck.org/article.aspx?docID=231

Factcheck is biased and a liberal machine. Beware when someone tries to use it to justify a liberal argument.

Any web site can claim it has the "facts", and certainly calling your site factcheck implies credibility. But they have been debunked, they are rabid partisans for Kerry and useless, at least with respect to political matters.

UndecidedOne,

Would you be interested in a debunking of FactCheck's original post on the Swiftvets?

It seems like they are only showing one side, so yes, debunk away
