A Fact Checking site that may be worth visiting

Got there via this article in whcih the govt is apparently admitting to 71 Trillion in unfunded liabilities.  But got curious and clicked around and founfd just a wonderful wealth of information and charts.  The Gun page is particularly good...

There may be a conservative bias in that the information presented bolsters the conservative case,  but as we have seen before reality itself seems to have a conservative bias, as things just keep happening exactly the way we predict they will.

Yea! They even have my favorite picture of the SS trust Fund posted

Hey?!  Can I get some of those gun stats put on metal plates?  I'd like to beat them over the heads of gun-grabbers.

Thank you!

What's the rate for: Gangbangers + Illegal guns + Illegal Aliens + Citizens of other countries who have no interest in becoming citizens of the USA?

I hate liberals. Liberalism is a disease that causes severe brain damage after it tries to suck knowledge and history out of yours.
