I've noticed that they seem to jump all over any derogatory information about the Clintons. I do believe they have a set of kneepads in their closets, but their de-bunking is usually quite reliable.

If Snopes is so biased to the left, why did it give credit to the "I am a Bad American" piece to a FReeper?

It was originally up there as "unknown," then Bootyist contacted Snopes and he changed it.

Snopes is no longer a "premiere" urban legend debunker site IMHO. On some debunks, they exagerate by calling something "False" when after you read the thing, you find some truth and some exageration. I suggest truthorfiction.com.

Well, don't expect the Truth in a world to be handed you on a silver platter by anyone. Snopes' or not.
