Does that excuse the misstatements of this "debate?"
How important is the truth? Can the truth simply be left to experts after the candidate is already put in the White House? Just how much do the (actual) facts mean on the campaign trail? And if candidates can't get their facts straight under the glare of the national television spotlight, what are we to expect behind closed doors at the White House after the person is installed in the Oval Office?
There is a web site dedicated to checking out the assertions of the various candidates. Its hyperlink is below. Politicians of both parties have been known to shade the truth. But somehow this collection of individuals on the GOP side contains more than its share of whopper-generators.
