Excerpts from a website on fact finding. There are many topics of discussion on this website and detail the facts to a much greater depth than many of us are accustomed to seeing in the press. Go take a look yourself and get more facts. This website does try to present the facts and doesn’t appear to have an agenda to represent the interest of any party in particular. I am unaccustomed to this posture, even from the news press which seems to have their own bias they bring to the table as well.

A Bush-Cheney '04 ad released Aug. 13 accuses Kerry of being absent for 76% of the Senate Intelligence Committee's public hearings during the time he served there. The Kerry campaign calls the ad "misleading," so we checked, and Bush is right.
Kerry points out that most meetings of the Intelligence Committee are closed and attendance records of those meetings aren't public, hinting that his attendance might have been better at the non-public proceedings. But Kerry could ask that his attendance records be made public, and hasn't. Aides also claimed repeatedly that Kerry had been vice chairman of the intelligence committee, but that was Bob Kerrey of Nebraska, not John Kerry.
Analysis
Kerry often touts his eight years on the Senate Intelligence Committee as a prime qualification for office. The Bush ad takes that on, describing Kerry as a no-show for most of the committee's public meetings. If anything, the ad understates Kerry's lack of attendance.

In his acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention July 29 Kerry repeated a claim that the economy is creating jobs that pay $9,000 a year less than those they replace. He bases that on disputed analysis from a liberal think tank.
Analysis
Kerry continued to talk down the economy using dubious statistics. When he formally announced his candidacy in September 2003 he claimed the nation was suffering the "greatest job loss since the Great Depression," which we pointed out was not true. Now he's saying that the jobs the economy is adding are paying $9,000 less than the jobs they replace. That's not a fact, either.

I think you need to track down the articles that have been posted here that pretty well debunk "factcheck."

"Fact-checking factcheck" was the title of one of the threads.

After a massive email campaign, they amended their site, slightly, but it still LIES about Swifts.

factcheck is no longer a credible entity.
