AP News | The Columbia Daily Tribune - Columbia, Missouri (http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_GOP_CANDIDATES_MIDEAST_FACT_CHECK?SITE=MOCOD&SE CTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT - broken link)

The Palestinian bid to win U.N. recognition is focusing attention on the Obama administration's Mideast policy, which Republican presidential candidates say is all wrong.


RICK PERRY: "Errors by the Obama administration have encouraged the Palestinians to take backward steps away from peace. It was a mistake to call for an Israeli construction freeze, including in Jerusalem, as an unprecedented precondition for talks."

THE FACTS: This is a one-sided and parochial assessment of the impasse. U.S. officials and mediators from other countries have blamed both sides for failing to advance the peace process. Europeans and others aren't blaming the U.S. for the difficulty.

I am so glad you have pointed this out to all of us. We thought it was only the left that spun the truth.. As for who and what is right, I think each side can argue this one, so don't assume, because you read it somewhere it is the only truthespecially since it came from the liberal leaning AP.
