You are absolutely right ajm -- Obama has been cited by FactCheck.org as well. I acknowledged this in a previous post:

However, it does appear that McCain's falsities are much more frequent, significant and systematic in nature. I will be keeping track of FactCheck.org's analyses, and I will update if/when Obama is cited again. Thanks for pointing this out.

to "akhajawall", if you have something intelligent to add about the story on the page which you are commenting, then good, otherwise stop posting the same exact comment on different pages. I saw the exact same comment last week I believe and it had no good reason for being on that page either.

With that being said, I love how the internet opens up channels for people to find the truth behind ads like this. And to be fair, Obama has made some less than straightforward claims in his ads too. Sites like FactCheck.org are revolutionizing political campaigns because before this, there were no easy ways for the everyday person to really sort out the degree of truth behind political ads.

Dear American Citizens and the Press

As a concerned citizen, I consider it is my duty to bring following message to you all.

"We the citizens of the United States of America have the ultimate responsibility to elect the " Right Candidate" to lead our nation, out of our huge present and future internal and external challenges as well as opportunities. This is to prevent depression and isolation in-spite of being the only superpower in the world morally, democratically, economically, and militarily.

We need to consider the "critical qualities and characteristics" of our presumptive presidential nominees at the time we vote.

In my personal and professional opinion the critical considerations are as under:

1. Calm, cool, and collected " temper " [ Presidential Temperament ].

2. Sound and sustained "Judgment and Caliber".

3. "Thought-fullness and togetherness" of purpose and positions.

4. Minimum "ex-poser and exploitation" around "Washington and Washington insiders".

5. Renewed " Vigor and Vision " for our Greatgrand Nation.

6. Foreign policy based on " American Values, Virtuous, Vastness".

Stay informed, stay involved, and stay engaged. Do not allow some partisan media, pundits, pollsters, and perpetual political opinion makers effect your vote in the wrong direction.

Don't be effected and duped by "Psychological Terrorism" that is afflicted upon you all the time.

Long live U.S.A and its diverse but democratic people.

PS: it simply says that hon. Senator McCain is temperamental and cognatively challenged.
