> I wouldn't take that particular page any more seriously than the anti-Gore pages. Both have an agenda. The only good way to figure out the truth of things is to invest some time in getting news from a variety of different reliable sources. Take pages with obvious agendas, one way or the other, with a grain of salt.

To add to Sam's advice, bear in mind the fact that 85 percent of journalists are either registered Democrats or they lean strongly in that direction. In order to get some un-biased facts, you'll have to do some research that goes deeper than a page from snopes.com. I would recommend that you watch the next (and last) presidential debates in an un-biased environment. If other people are in the room, ask them to refrain from making comments that might change the way you perceive the debate. Then do some research on the candidates. Gather information on why Bush should be elected, and then gather information on why Gore should be elected. Make your own conclusions and THEN talk to other people about it.
