John McCain's false claim that "[i]f you are one of the 23 million small business owners in America who files as an individual rate payer, Senator [Barack] Obama is going to raise your tax rates." In fact, Obama has proposed rolling back President Bush's tax cuts only on "people who are making 250,000 dollars a year or more"; according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center, only 481,000 small businesses fall into the tax brackets that would be affected by those increases. http://mediamatters.org/items/200807080010 Tue, 8 Jul 2008 19:39:57 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200804030012 Blogs on MSNBC.com and CBSNews.com noted that Sen.

John] McCain's claims to fame is his time as a prisoner of war in Vietnam, something he didn't like to discuss a lot before this campaign," adding, "Perhaps he didn't speak about it sooner because he learned from his father not to." In fact, McCain and his campaign repeatedly invoked his experience as a POW during his failed bid for the Republican presidential nomination in 2000. http://mediamatters.org/items/200803310004 Mon, 31 Mar 2008 15:56:03 EST
