Fact checker? We don't need no steekin' fact checker!

President Bush learned a valuable lesson yesterday: Don't ever mistake a child's age.

Christopher and Diana Martin and their seven children joined President Bush for the signing of the Adoption Promotion Act. But little Terrance Martin did not like what he heard and had no qualms, TV lights and all, letting the president know that he was not, in fact, 6 years old.

"How old are you?" Bush asked.

"Seven," Terrance said matter-of-factly. "Okay, 7," Bush relented, before adding, "I'll take it up with the fact checker."


Fact checker? I 'm stunned. I had no idea that the White House ever used a fact checker.

What would a Bush Administration fact checker be like?
