Wouldn’t it be nice if the president of the Senate actually presided over more than three sessions?

It’s sad that journalists and pundits can’t seem to do basic fact-checking the way an ordinary citizen can. How about, instead of allowing a public figure to lie, you actually tell the truth: Dick Cheney presided over Senate sessions three times in the four years he’s been Vice President. And how about pointing out that Edwards actually presided over the Senate seven?

The wonderful thing about the public record is that it’s PUBLIC (http://www.gpoaccess.gov/crecord/index.html). And, dude, if The Daily Show can get to it, then why can't our media?? What a joke.

The point isn’t a prayer breakfast. It is yet one more piece of evidence that this administration just can’t seem to tell the truth about any matter, large (Iraq) or small (truancy.)
