smearbusters.org, part 2

Since they took it upon themselves to “investigate” one of my posts as a “smear” against His Highness (couple posts below), I figured I’d take a look at Smearbuster.org’s site.

Here’s their source data:

title	instances detected	corrected	waiting for correction	no action needed
false list of 50 lies told by Senator Obama	4		1	3
no flag on the campaign airplane	5	1	1	3
Falsified statement about the National Anthem	21	4	13	4
lies and misrepresentations about Barack Obama's tax policies	19	7	10	2
smears about Michelle Obama's senior thesis	11	3	5	3
false quotes from Obama's books	44	20	13	11

Conspiracy theory about Barack's money and connections	13	5	7	1
Guilt-by-association with Ayers	262	59	155	48

How they doing?

They have identified a total of 401 Smears To Be BUSTED!!! I am in the last group – the Ayers bit – although my post had nothing to with Ayers. Sigh …

Of the Smears To Be BUSTED!!! they have conquered, dismantled, refuted, drove into the conservative shithole from whence they came ONE HUNDRED SEVEN.

That leaves 294 Smears To Be BUSTED!!! (This is like a drinking game: 294 smears to be busted / 294 smears / take one down / pass it around / 293 smears to be busted …)

Of 401 Smears To Be BUSTED!!!, 79 Needed No Action! That’s liberal-speak for “They weren’t really smears – they were factually accurate.”

There are 215 Smears Waiting To Be BUSTED!!!

So let’s peer into the data for just a bit.

Of the 401 alleged smears, 79 were not smears. So the alleged smear pool is actually 322.

Of the 322 alleged smears, 107 have been debunked. That leaves the 215 bridesmaids. Way to streak towards the finish lines, guys.

Overall, they were wrong in 20% of their allegations, have resolved to their supposed favor 27%, and are sitting on their bony ass on the remaining 54% - which , if they're honest, includes my post which should be moved over to the “Oh, nevermind” pile.

Give an L! “L” Give me an O! “O” Give me an S! “S” … you get the picture.
