We talk about logic and rhetoric in class. In this election year, both candidates bombard us with outrageous claims, and this website is a great way to keep the rhetoric in check. They check the factuality of all claims made by both candidates and then give us the truth (or at least a reasonable analogue).

Reading some of these articles reminded me of the quote we used in class today for a journal, "argument is an exchange of ignorance". you could take this to a literal sense considering the candidates make points without checking the facts first, and in some cases tell complete lies.
