Faulting Dems for "twist[ing]" McCain's "hundred" years comment from NH event, Wash. Post's "fact checker" Dobbs ignored McCain's evasions at same event

April 03, 2008 8:11 pm ET

SUMMARY: A Washington Post "Fact Checker" item accused Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton of "twist[ing]" Sen. John McCain's "words by claiming that he 'wants' to fight a 100-year war." But the "fact check" did not note that, during the same event, McCain repeatedly avoided directly answering how many years he would be willing to fight a war in Iraq if Americans are "being injured or harmed or wounded or killed."
