In what is appearing to be more a trend than an aberration, yet another study has shown that Republican politicians lie more than Democratic ones, especially when it comes to lies which are so ridiculous, Pinocchio even says, "That sh*t's messed up!"
Based on fact-checking grades made by fact-checking site Politifact, George Mason University's Center for Media and Public Affairs has reported that since January of this year, 52% of Republicans' statements have been rated as either mostly or entirely false, while just 24% of Democrats' statements have been rated similarly.
According to this same report, the month of May has been an even more dishonest one for the Republican Party, largely due to the controversies surrounding the AP, IRS, and Benghazi. Through the first three weeks of this month, 60% of Republicans statements have been graded as false, while 29% of Democrats' comments have been graded similarly.
Of course, this must just be another case of the media being liberally-biased - that or perhaps research, statistics, and reality have a liberal bias.
