Politics is where the lies are worse. You want the liars to determine who is lying? If so I have a safe and effective vaccine to sell you
No, and this is why moderators need to fact-check.

Gone are the halcyon days before Donald Trump when people running for office were assumed to be telling the truth until it was proven they lied.

Now we know some of them lie like others breathe.

This is why the electorate needs to become smarter, not dumber.

Now realize that I did not say "more partisan". I said "smarter".

I agree with you, but who is going to fact check the rogue moderator who is repeating misinformation? Norah O’Donnell did just that. She expressed an opinion about global warming that had no place in the debate.
Moderators are there to enforce the debate rules, not break them to express their opinions as if the candidates are not capable of doing that.
Should we create ...[text shortened]... debate fact checking panel? After all, if two rogue moderators are good eight will be better, right?
No she didn't.

You and your climate change fantasies. You've pushed them ad nauseum here and people now know you're full of it. You lose it every time someone tells the truth about it, because you've pushed lies here for years.

No, you want only one party to be fact checked.

Why wasn't Kamala fact checked for her lies?

You have no idea what she said about GW. That is obvious.
Lie much?

Don’t you think JE shouldn’t have been checked?

I mean: trump saved Obama care.
Really?

Probably because if she lied, which I doubt, they weren't nearly as egregious as the fantasy world Donald Trump lies about daily.

Yes, I do.

And I know what you've said about it as well. You're on record here about lying about it for years.

Vance clearly won.
Yes, he's much slicker than Walz. The Yale Law schooling clearly showed. But his response about abortion, that "the GOP has to win back Americans' trust", was disingenuous, because what most Americans want is for Roe to be re-instated, and he can't accept that. Moreover, Vance couldn’t bring himself to publicly say his boss lost the last election, which means Vance is committed to Trump's delusional world. He's spineless--Pence wasn't. Pence did, finally, do the right thing, which was to do his constitutional duty instead of his boss's bidding.

Who is JE?

Either both candidates should be fact checked or neither of them. If you are going to insist on continued fact checking (opinion asserting) then I suggest a fact checking panel at the debates.

Let each candidate appoint fact checkers to the panel. Agreed?

Do you support a fact checking panel at the debates?
Or are you afraid that will lead to bitter arguments between the fact checkers that make fact checking look like stupid opinions? That is exactly what would happen.

Have you accepted that most of the covid vaccines utilized gene therapy technology yet or are you still in denial of that?

Lying about what?
Tell me what I lied about and prove I said it since you claim it is on record.

I meant JD.

And yes, I think a panel would be good.
But not appointed by the bloody candidates.
