Non-partisan web-site FactCheck.org cited Barack Obama for a fib about energy yesterday.
Obama released a national ad saying he has "fast-track alternatives" to imported oil. On closer examination, those turn out to be his proposal to spend $150 billion over the coming decade on energy research. Ten years doesn't sound all that "fast" to us, and there's no guarantee that the research will result in less oil being imported.
The unofficial TSC tally of misleading or inaccurate statements in the 2008 general election campaign according to FactCheck now stands at 10 for McCain and 5 for Obama.
