Dems distort McCain record

If you've tuned in to the Democratic National Convention this week, you probably heard these lines:

* John McCain voted 90 percent with George Bush

* John McCain gets millions from oil companies

* John McCain is promising tax breaks for Big Oil

Sounds like you shouldn't vote for this guy, right? One slight problem. The Democrats are lying about McCain's record.

How far are the Democrats willing to stretch the truth? Barack Obama has received more contributions from the oil companies and their employees than John McCain has.

The Associated Press did one of its occasional FactCheck stories on the Democratic Party claims and found the party stretching the truth.

I read the fact check, it pretty much configms the truth of what the Democrats said. I'm not sure what uou are getting at put rtanting about this, other than to try to smear the Democrats. McCain has taken more money from Oil and Gas and voted with Bush 90% of the time during his presidency. He is also promising the $ billion in tax cuts. Pretty damning and backed up by the fact checking at AP (a pretty conservative reporting orgaization, sort of the Fox News of wire services).
