ran 3.4 miles
Last full week of running against Obama for the year! Today ends week fifty-two of running against Obama. I ran 20.4 miles this week, averaging 2.91 miles per day.
I was skimming through www.politifact.com and came across some interesting quotes. I’ll put this thing into a trivia format for you:
“The black unemployment rate (has) increased since the recovery has begun.”
True. White, Hispanic, and Asian unemployment eased, Black unemployment got worse.
"Fifty-one percent -- that is, a majority of American households -- paid no income tax in 2009. Zero. Zip. Nada."
True. Nada.
"Who are the most consistently misinformed media viewers? … Fox viewers, consistently, every poll."
False. The data is much more contradictory.
The Medicare proposal by Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., would "allow insurance companies to deny you coverage and drop you for pre-existing conditions."
False. Budget resolution specifically bars the practice.
"We're borrowing 40 cents of every dollar we spend."
True. Living just a little bit outside our means.
"The average unemployed American has been out of work for almost 40 weeks."
True. Joblessness is at or near record lengths.
1,000.7 miles to go.
