Snopes is not wrong that often, but will frequently take the Democrat side. They debunked ALL of the Clinton Body Count and were quite kind to John Kerry. I can't think of exact examples. There are many Democrat urban legends that are not on Snopes at all, poke about and you'll see.. I think Jimmy Carter and the Attack Rabbit is not there.
I look at Snopes like I look at Wikepedia and the NYTimes, and approach each article thinking, what if this were true...Then seek independent corroboration.

They also debunked the GHWB legend about George at the grocery store scanner.

Always take the Gipper's sage advice: Trust but Verify. I make sure I do the same thing with anything I read on blogs or on FR.
