Documented proof that Republicans are the biggest liars in politics

[Joanne98]

This is my surprised face:

A Smart Politics analysis of more than 500 PolitiFact stories over the last year finds that statements made by Republican politicians have been rated as false at more than three times the rate of those made by their Democratic counterparts.

Interestingly, the study (which can be found here) focuses on Politifact itself, charging the nonpartisan analysis done by the St. Petersburg Times fact-checking unit with a systemic bias against Republicans.

However, there are other explanations that are equally, if not more, plausible than charging Politifact with grading in bad faith.

For one thing, the study was conducted during a time when the GOP was out of power. The party out of power, it could reasonably be assumed, is going to take more chances with their rhetoric, in an effort to turn the electorate against the party in office.

Of all the pathological LIARS in the GOP, guess who lies the most?

Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin of course!
