I'm not a big fan of her but it is still worth mentioning. Bill O'Reilly says,

Quote
did you know the Associated Press, America's largest news wire service, used 11 reporters to check the accuracy of Sarah Palin's book "Going Rogue"? Eleven.

Barack Obama has had two best-selling books. The Associated Press did not fact-check either one.

AP spokesman Paul Colford says that's because then-Senator Obama wasn't a major player when his books came out. Even if you believe that flimsy excuse, once he did become a presidential contender, shouldn't the AP have fact-checked his books?

I know I am beating a dead industry here, but the blatant left-wing bias of the American press has reached critical mass. It is simply out of control.

Even if you don't like Sarah Palin, you know she has been treated unfairly by the media. It shouldn't be happening.

Doesn't change the fact that Sarah Palin didn't pass the factcheck:

No they did not fact check Da Vinci Code but I'm sure some religious extremists did.

But the AP hasn't fact checked Ted Kennedy or Joe Biden or Barack Obama's previous works before he was president or the autobiographies from Bill or Hillary Clinton.

No need to fact check if you already know everything they say is bullshit  :p

It came out on Tuesday for the 360 and PS3. All the "What. The. Fuck."'s we keep throwing around is because W.T.F. is the last statement made in the main game. And it fits so well there because the ending is just that. It's exactly what was going through my head when it was said. Even better then the "Damn" that gets said when you screw up a reload in Gears of War 2.

Yeah, I meant the ending/the credits/The Truth puzzles. It was a total mind fuck and a half.

The third one sounds like it's gonna be the shit. ACII is definately on par with MW2.

Are "The Truth" puzzles hard to track down?  I've only completed one, and I haven't come across any others.  I can't get away from upgrading my town and gear, lol.

Some are, some aren't. It's a nice little tie in. I suggest you try it :)
