Much Like The Truth - The Facts Are Out There. Just Don't Bother Looking In Mitt Romney's Campaign

Publicly, Mitt Romney, his wannabe-wonk and the whole Romney campaign are utterly unapologetic about their open-hostility towards the theory and practice of  'Fact-Checking'.

Especially 'Fact-Checking' done on any of their own statements/claims/accusations/political ads.

They also have a well-documented, acute aversion to Telling The Truth - whether it be about themselves or about others.

It would behoove all of us if our consumer-protecting tradition and practice of "Truth in Advertising" were to be extended so as to include politics.  And with significant fines levied against the worst and repeat offenders.

Why?

Because - The Truth Matters - Even in Politics.  Especially in Politics.

"Mr. Romney:  Let's play "Two Truths and A Lie!".   "Noooo! You're doing it wrong!!" :P
