Geez, poor John McCain.  He just can't catch a break!  When is he going to stop getting caught telling obvious lies?

In Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Thursday, Mr. McCain sought to turn that advantage against his rival, charging that Mr. Obama’s “own advisers are saying that the crisis will benefit him politically.”

The McCain campaign could not cite an example of an Obama adviser’s claiming that.

In this ridiculous "fact-checking" post by Marc Ambinder, he claims that Obama's Spanish-language radio ad linking John McCain and Rush Limbaugh is unfair because McCain and Limbaugh have appreciably different stances on immigration.

Did Ambinder not see the GOP primary and many, many debates?  John McCain was forced to admit that he no longer supported his own immigration reform bill. 

So does Ambinder think McCain was lying then, or is he just clueless?

CORRECTION REQUIRED:

TPMm, you mangled the headline and buried the lede in the post linked below!!! You got an absolutely phenomenal quote and you should be screaming it from the rooftops!!

The headline clearly should be:

Former Palin Backer: Palin Had Absolutely No Management Skills, Couldn't Manage 5,000 Person Village of Wasilla On Her Own

Palin, he told TPMmuckraker, "had absolutely no management skills and couldn't manage the city on her own."
