Mitch gets fact-checked

The nonpartisan fact-checking website FactCheck.org busts Mitch McConnell for telling lies:

The Sunday talk shows contained ample misinformation this week. Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan was the subject of bogus claims...

On NBC’s "Meet the Press," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell misleadingly claimed that Kagan and her subordinates had argued in favor of banning books and pamphlets.

But, in fact, what Kagan and lawyers working for her said was that corporations should not be allowed to finance printed materials that advocated the election or defeat of a candidate for federal office.
