Strike Three!

Harold Ford Jr has been caught in another lie out on the campaign trail. This time it is a bald-faced one where he claims to have voted for the Deficit Reduction Act when, in fact, he voted against it twice and filed a legal brief against it in court!

This follows his lie about supporting the Kelo decision and a lie about his record on gun rights!

Ford has lied about his voting record! You'd think the local media would be all over this, but ... not so much. They are too locked in to the "support the local boy doing well" template to consider anything that might muck it up and make their jobs harder.
