Could liar-spotting replace collecting conspiracy theory as the pastime of choice among political junkies? Fact checking is fast becoming today's favoured spectator sport, especially among the chattering classes. One noted fact checking exponent is journalist Steve Benen who has been tracking experinced liar Mittens Romney (noted multi millionaire and occasional Presidential candidate). According to Benen, Mittens has told no less than 533 lies in a mere 30 week period, a champion performance by any standard. Can Mittens hit the jackpot with this gold medal winning performance? Mittens' astonishing feat is analysed at the site listed below, with links to 30 of his more notable recent efforts. http://www.patheos.com/blogs/slacktivist/2012/08/29/mitt-romney-tells-533-lies-in-30-weeks-steve-benen-documents-them/
