Top Five

The economic stimulus created “zero jobs.” — The National Republican Senatorial Committee and other Republicans 24%

Abortion services are “well over 90 percent of what Planned Parenthood does.”- Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz. 17%

“Republicans voted to end Medicare.” — The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and other Democrats 16%

Scientists are “questioning the original idea that man-made global warming is what is causing the climate to change. … (It is) more and more being put into question.” — Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry 11%

The vaccine to prevent HPV can cause mental retardation. — Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann 10%

President Obama “went around the world and apologized for America.” — Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney 8%
