As I see it, Moveon.org are only reporting what these sites have already.

Moveon.org is lefty propaganda at its worst. They will put the spin on any information to make the Republicans look bad. Like I said, Fox does the same. You can't possibly think that the Republicans are the only ones who possess news stations (Fox) that favor them. It is an equal opportunity playing field.

as i said, a left wing site pointing out voting records and comments to back up their claims of what mccain is like is a bit more subtantive than claiming obama is a muslim because this or that reason, obama hates america because he didn't wear a badge, obama this, obama that.

I have never even seen that information on Obama before, but then again I don't sit in front of Fox all day either. It isn't limited to "Obama hates America" nonsense either. There is just as much information out there questioning his politics as there is on McCain.

Of course. But it's your job as a citizen to not only "swallow" the info from your favourite media but also and most of all to cross-check the info on other sources.

But of course people are going to favor information that paints their choice in a wonderful light. That is just human nature. As for cross-checking, I totally agree, but it isn't a one way street. You need to do it on both sides to determine the truth.
