Rudy Giuliani, whose record for jaw-dropping exaggerations is unmatched, apparently just can't help himself.

OK, Rudy Giuliani has just released an ad claiming that the survival rate from prostate cancer is much higher in America than in Britain, thus proving the failure of socialized medicine.

The problem is that his claim is just plain false. In fact, mortality rates from prostate cancer are almost the same in America and Britain.

So, will this get as much attention as, say, the Edwards haircut or the Hillary laugh? Will it get any coverage at all? Bear in mind that health care is the central domestic issue of this election — and Rudy has just showed that he doesn’t know a thing about it.

A Washington Post reporter recently suggested political reporters will get around to scrutinizing Giuliani's whoppers at some point in the future. Now seems like a perfectly good time, doesn't it?
