Politifact.com: A Service to Our Society?

The website Politifact takes statements that politicians make, and prove them to be accurate or inaccurate. Content in the website is fascinating, and accurate. It gives links to quotes the people say, and they give proof that they exist, and validation for their conclusion. They have a scale that they use, from completely true to "Pants on Fire".  It is a wonderful resource to decipher what is true and what is false in the political arena, because quite often it is difficult to distinguish what is real. Something that absolutely demolishes this website's Ethos is the fact that there are questionable pop-up ads for sketchy companies, such as housing loans. Overall this is a fantastic resource for people looking to get more informed about their political ideology and decision making.
