I am relatively conservative, especially by the standards of this board, and no fan of the president but I sometimes am moved to correct some of the stupid anti-Obama things I see posted. I shouldn’t bother because it doesn’t work. Here is a reply I got a couple days ago:
Quote:
Snopes is such BS…I would nt trust them with anything..I have done research on their supposed bias BS and half the time they are wrong. Snopes is not a true investigative site…they do not have expertise and the articles they write are based on media articles..not true research. and I used to look at their site…but I saw a couple posts that I know where not true from them…did more research and came to the conclusion that they produce biased articles that are liberal favored.

Now I don’t think Snopes is the only cite that should be used but it is a good first source to check something out.

From Wikipedia:
FactCheck noted that Barbara Mikkelson was a Canadian citizen (and thus unable to vote in US elections) and David Mikkelson was an independent who was once registered as a Republican. “You’d be hard-pressed to find two more apolitical people,” David Mikkelson told them.

You believe Wikipedia? My brother has a room mate whose best friend saw them both at a Klan rally.

It is actually against my workplace’s Rules of the Information Superhighway, of which we’re reminded annually, to forward chain emails. Some idjits do it anyway.
