FactCheck is a Web site worth checking regularly. And they are pretty even-handed in their criticism.

They point out problems in President Obama's Tuesday night speech at a research piece here. (But then, you knew the U.S. didn't really invent the automobile, didn't you?)

They point out problems with some common GOP criticisms of the stimulus plan here. (That train from Disneyland to Vegas? Not really in the bill.)



The Spokesman-Review's political team keeps a critical eye on local, state and national politics.
