tools for the upcoming campaign season

First off The Revealer "a daily review of religion in the press". Found out about it from TalkLeft and I gather it's quite new; I'll be interested to see if they offer good analysis of religion and policy issues because it would be very useful in this day and age.

The other (recommended by my sister) FactCheck.org, a non-partisan site that is attempting to read through all the spin by checking what's documentable and what's not.

This has been your public service announcement for the day </politics>
