If you're like me, you get a lot of nutcase, lying political-type e-mails. I'm not talking about the kind that try to build a rational, fact-based case for some viewpoint. I get those too and often find them of interest. But I'm talking here about the kind wherein someone just plain lies about what's in a bill and/or offers demonstrably-phony quotes. That kind.
I'm sure there are left-wing ones but I only seem to receive the right-wing variety. Usually, they're quickly deleted but if you want to respond to them, Media Matters has a service for you. They are, as you probably know, a Liberal watchdog group. They've set up a section of their website that gathers such e-mails and offers up polite responses you can send. They include links to news sources that aid with the debunking, just in case the person who sent you the e-mail is one of the rare ones who can be convinced their facts are in error.
If someone out there can point me to a similar site that debunks lying left-wing e-mails (and does so without citing Michelle Malkin as an unbiased source), let me know.
