(UPDATE 3/2 5:18PM An Editor's Note now appended to the Politico story says it "mischaracterized the testimony of Energy Secreatry Steven Chu." The headline, lede, and body of the story have been corrected.)

A Politico story fueling misguided attacks on Energy Secretary Steven Chu is not borne out by what actually occurred. The article titled, "Chu: DOE working to wean U.S. off oil, not lower prices," claimed:

Your "source" is a liberal blogger? Let's check politifact:

Politifact says Obama administration "has said publicly he wants us to pay European levels (for gas), and that would be $9 or $10 a gallon." is true

I can understand AGREEING with the president. I can understand disagreeing. I can't understand willingly lying to yourself so you can pretend to agree with the opposite of what he actually said. I disagreed with Bush on a lot of things. I disagree with Romney on a lot of things. Why can't liberals either disagree with Obama or agree with him? Why pretend he's not saying and doing these things?
