Food for thought, courtesy American Progress Action Fund (emphasis mine):

Last night's vitriolic and factually challenged speeches by Sen. Zell Miller and Vice President Dick Cheney showed the GOP's true colors. Cheney devoted just 50 words of his speech to health care, 92 to the economy and 102 to education. The number of words Cheney devoted to personally attacking and distorting the record of John Kerry? 671. This is not a party that is willing to reasonably discuss the issues. This is not a party that wants to unify the country. This is a party of fear; a party that thrives on dividing Americans and stoking hatred rather than offering hope. Pursuing hateful, critical attacks rather than focusing on real issues does not offer hope to Americans. The GOP offers nothing but attacks and personal assaults on opponents because it has no successful record to run on and no hopeful vision for the future. Stoking fear on terrorism rather than offering real solutions does not offer hope to Americans. The GOP talks non-stop about 9/11 because it can't talk about its massive missteps on terrorism since that day – its failure to capture Osama bin Laden and its disastrous war of choice in Iraq that has created more terrorist opportunities, not less. Talking up the economy while the middle class suffers does not offer hope to Americans. With the number of Americans living in poverty continuing to rise under the Bush administration and millions of middle class families still struggling, the GOP says the economy has "turned the corner" and that the hard-pressed middle class should just stop whining and see the sunshine. Rather than offer policies to help people move ahead, the GOP offers more tax cuts for the wealthy, more subsidies for corporate America, and more fiscally irresponsible priorities that create massive budget deficits.

"Factually challenged"?? People, when are we going to stop being so spineless and start calling lies "lies"?
