Politifact Truth-o-meter: Only Clinton and McCain receive "PANTS ON FIRE" ruling - not Obama

[powergirl]

This is what it comes down to for me. I need truth and honesty, for a change, in a presidential election. When Obama says or does something that raises the ire of Sen. Clinton or McCain, (maybe I'll call them McClinton since they seem to complain about the same things), he owns what he says and explains it. The reaction of McClinton is to keep saying the statement, deny saying the statement, and then say they "misspoke." You can scroll through the entire list. There is not one statement made by Obama that rises to this level of deceit.
