Comment: This is just a short note to thank you folks for what you do.
You cannot imagine (or perhaps you can...) how greatly it is appreciated
to be able to access thoughtful, well-researched answers to the great
mysteries (and lies?) found on the internet.

Thanks again

Comment: "keep America American"... this is one of the MANY reasons I love
you (...errr...your site, that is!) I am SO SICK of all this political
smear crap from all sides!!!! I am by NO MEANS a Romney fan, and would
NEVER vote for him, but I am so very glad that you cleared this up. THANK
YOU FOR ONCE AGAIN BEING THE VOICE OF REASON!!! I think I would give up
on the internet if it weren't for you! I can't tell you how many friends
I've referred to your site, as well as one major (one of the big three)
local news stations in Philly to check their facts on a story! They
checked with you, then thanked me for the link! YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment: Thank you for maintaining this invaluable website. I can't count
the number of times I've turned to Snopes to verify/debunk yet another
fabrication that's gone viral on the internet. Thank you.

Comment: Thank you SO much for being so fast to debunk the
"Obama has signed 923 executive orders that give him complete control over
every aspect of our country and personal lives" Chicken Little story.

Saw this in a comment on HuffPost today and when I searched "executive
orders" there was a veritable flood of sites promulgating this vile
nonsense - obviously another attempt to spread a big lie to terrify the
gullible.

What a relief to see your site had already addressed it! Of course I
shared the link.

If you were a nonprofit, I'd contribute. If you were single, I'd marry
you. As it is, I'll have to content myself with visiting you frequently
and loving you from afar.

You must be helping keep health care costs down by reducing blood
pressures by the thousands every day. I know you've helped mine.

Comment: Thank God for Snopes!! There are such lies and propaganda being
spread about our President....and it's a shame! Every time I get an
e-mail that is suspect....I pull it up on snopes. 95% of the time snopes
disproves the accusations. Thank you for doing a wonderful job in
allowing honest people to go to an honest site.....for the truth!!!

Comment: Dear Snopes,

Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all the wonderful work you
do.
Frequently I get hate-filled e-mails from well-meaning folks (of both
political persuasions) asking me to forward "that stuff" to everyone I
know. Before being tempted to do so (very rarely) I check out the item
and usually find that you have already exposed it for what it really is.
Shocking sometimes what floats around the internet - posing as the truth.
¶ So thanks again. Keep up the good work.
Signed: a happy camper

Comment: As the lone liberal in an ultra-conservative company, and a
minority Democrat in Utah, I have been overwhelmed with e-mails containing
the latest "facts" about Obama. I have neither the time nor the resources
to refute the stories and have just hit delete and kept my mouth
shut...until Snopes.com. A couple of keys words in search, an 'e-mail
this' to the source, and the truth is out there complete with origins,
authors, and substantiated statistics. Lovely!

Sadly, I have found that many people don't care if something is true
or not (b.s. makes for better copy) as long as it confirms a preconceived
belief. Even so, at least I can make a well informed and diplomatic
reply.

Thank you for the nonpartisan approach to the truth. FACTS should
never be red, blue, or tea-colored. They should just be TRUE.

Comment: Thank-you so much for this website. My husband and I have gone
around in circles for years about politics, and while I don't have the
legal expertise to sift thru thousands of pages of government websites, I
appreciate that your website includes the links right to the actual
references. My husband gets dozens of radical right-wing emails from his
friends every day. Every now and then I get an email from him that seems
so outrageous as to defy common sense. My husband is a generous, kind
person and I've tried to tell him over the years that these emails which
never seem to contain any factual proof from secondary sources are
changing him. The radical acts displayed by people start by someone
believing in something based on a rumor or opinion. Your website may not
bring world peace, but I feel it's one step in that direction.

With Gratitude

Comment: I use Snopes fairly often to refute bogus emails that seem to be
self-perpetuating since they're never ending. Please continue to try to
educate people who seem never to tire of sending emails that have no grain
of truth.

Comment: I just wanted to thank you for being you! Your site should be on
everyone's bookmarks; it's the first place I go when anyone claims
anything! And usually I am not disappointed.

Comment: THANK YOU ~ GREAT INFORMATION!! I REALLY APPRECIATE SNOPES.COM
HELPING TO KEEP ALL THIS WEB MATERIAL IN CHECK!!

(re:http://www.snopes.com/politics/business/bridges.asp)

You guys should get the word out about SNOPES by doing more advertising.

A lot of people don't know they can get the facts from you!!

And these days, the facts are really important!! Especially when there
are so many
false claims/statements!

Thanks again ~

Comment: Dear Snopes.com,

I LOVE YOU! I just used your info to help a slightly naive and rather
important site to take an inflammatory post down. (Hey, what do college
students know about fact-checking? )

Best wishes and highest regards from someone else who does research for a
living. Y'all are muy fabuloso.
