Another Controversy of the Day!
Not only does John McCain refuse to pay taxes (well, a trust his wife’s overseeing that is), he also doesn’t know the actual price of gas! O my, one controversy after another. It’s horrific. He might as well drop out immediately. O, o, gone are the days of Republican hope and change.
So what’s the matter? Well, it’s this; Memeorandum. What was once a nice website to find interesting and good news stories has now become a place for the controversies of the day. When something’s on Memeorandum, it has to be covered. It’s just that simple. Thus people pick it up and write about it; ‘all the others do, you know?‘ The result? Sheer madness.
People often talk about the power of blogs, but I’m starting to think that the blogosphere is slowly but surely destroying itself. It’s like popular culture; only irrelevant ‘news’ is noted, and everything (i.e. all blogs) become the same.

PoliGazette Comments Policy
PoliGazette encourages comments from all viewpoints, especially those that disagree.
Comments submitted must, however, adhere to the following standards. Comments that violate
these standards may be edited or deleted without notice at the sole discretion of the editors.
Commenters who repeatedly or egregiously violate these standards or who attempt to argue
publicly with editors regarding the comments policy may be banned from commenting further.
(1) Comments should address the substantive content of the post. Comments that repeatedly
or blatantly misrepresent the content of the post or of others' comments are not welcome. Comments that
respond to something other than which the contributor or commenter may have said are irrelevant and should
not be posted.
(2) Comments should avoid vulgarity as well as racial, ethnic, religious, or sexual bigotry.
(3) Comments should not personally attack the character, personal integrity, or professional
reputation of any PoliGazette contributor or of other commenters.
(4) Comments should reflect the contributions of the commenters themselves and should not
include extensive cut-and-paste reproductions of others' words except insofar as necessary to supplement
the commenter's own arguments. Link spam, trackback spam, and propaganda spam will be instantly deleted.
(5) Public figures are considered open to all substantive criticism of their policies and statements.
Comments that present objectively false factual information about public figures (i.e. "Obama is a Muslim") or
that attack public figures by attacking their families are not welcome. Comments that merely repeat
slogans for or against a candidate without engaging in substantive comment are not welcome.
Questions or challenges to these policies or their application should be directed to the editors
by email only.
If anyone has ever visited "thinkprogress.org" before, you’d know that ThinkProgress is the biggest propaganda website in the universe. Anything that ThinkProgress .org says should be carefully examined, because it is usually completely false.
McCain does know the price of gas, he didn’t say he doesn’t know the price of gas, the quotation is FALSE. Even the picture with McCain holding the telephone is completely FALSE (photoshop).
ThinkProgress also created the lie that said that McCain voted FOR torture (thinkprogress had an article about how McCain voted no for an intelligence resolution, which was about funding NOT torture/waterboarding).
