Oh, I see, something that is perhaps 1/100th% accurate is acceptable now, is it?

You keep trashing my chart as "inaccurate". Yet you've failed since I researched it and posted it 2 weeks ago to point out a single inaccuracy. I am willing to debate any item on the chart and will make changes as more information comes to light. So far, in the past 2 weeks, I've only had to make minor, semantic tweaks to 2 items on the chart.

I'm debating making a change to Hillary's support of the war in Iraq. While she voted for it and has come under fire in her own party for supporting it, her recent statements WHILE CAMPAIGNING may show otherwise. However, that is what she SAYS now during a campaign, in order to get elected, and not what she has DONE. If I switch her position to opposing the war based upon what she SAYS during the campaign, and not based upon what she's actually DONE, I would have to change a number of Giuliani's positions too. If any candidate had voted against the war and they wanted to say now, in order to get elected, that they actually supported the war, you would insist upon saying that they're against the war. Right? It works the same way in reverse. Of course there's her recent vote in the Senate about funding for the war. I've even taken that into consideration and still, that was a purely political vote, it was non-binding. That's why Hillary's block on her support for the Iraq War is pink, not red, demonstrating weak support and stating that she "voted for it".

As I've said before, the chart is weighted heavily towards what the candidates have DONE in the past, and what their statements have been before they were speaking in CampaignSpeak as they were running for President. Anything they SAY now must be weighed against what they've actually DONE in the past and what they've said in more candid moments.

Here's the chart one more time. If you want to debate any portion of it. Be my guest. Every time someone does, it helps me refine it and increase its accuracy.
