Factcheck.Org Dnc Vs. Mccain

One ad shows selected portions of McCain’s comments that a 100-year U.S. presence in Iraq would be “fine with me.” The ad uses dramatic images of war and violence, and omits any mention that McCain was speaking of a peaceful presence like that in Japan or Korea. An earlier ad attacks McCain for saying the nation’s economy is “prosperous” and “better off overall” than eight years ago. The ad uses a couple of incorrect statistics to argue otherwise....

We find that the e-mail is false in almost every particular: It sets up a face-off between apples and, well, broccoli, comparing only the Clinton-sponsored bills that became law with all bills sponsored or cosponsored by Obama, whether they were signed into law or not. It includes legislation Obama sponsored in the Illinois state Senate, a very different legislative body. It tells us that Obama has sponsored more legislation than Clinton, when in fact he has sponsored less....

Fall 2007 Tv Lineup What To Watch On Friday

If all this sounds terribly silly, it’s for a good reason. “Moonlight” attempts to drape a cop show over an Anne Rice-style gothic framework, and totally fails. It succeeds with laughs, though. It is, hands down, the funniest show of the new fall season. All the humor is unintentional, but it’s hard to totally pan a show that packs as many gut-busting moments as “Moonlight,” whether it means to or not....

Eagles Still Have Same Personnel Weakness As With Chip Kelly

For the Eagles’ executive VP of football operations, the early fruits of winning back personnel control have been in flexibility. Roseman scrubbed out Chip Kelly’s scent and managed to move from pick No. 13 to No. 8 in the process, better positioned to execute his own vision. They then traded Mark Sanchez to Denver for a conditional 2017 draft pick. Though much like Kelly’s teams, the Eagles under Roseman and Coach Doug Pederson still share the same great personnel weakness at cornerback....

Early Menopause Symptoms Causes Diagnosis And More
