FactCheck.org did the same thing as the LAT, but they did it in an honest, non-partisan way. Their conclusion?
We found nothing that was factually incorrect in the President’s Jan. 31 State of the Union address to Congress and the nation. However, we did note some selective use of statistics. We also found that Bush omitted some relevant facts that tended to make the state of the union look less rosy than he presented.
A misrepresentation is still a lie of omission. Which makes it no less a lie.
Factcheck.org has a better breakdown of the “Misstatement of the Union.”
