Truthboating

An organized political tactic or strategy aimed at exposing and promoting the actual facts about a political candidate, their positions, or their record.

A play on "Swiftboating," where baseless allegations are widely promoted to smear a candidate (often with funding provided by outside groups),"Truthboating" is designed to discredit a candidate or their positions based on well documented facts or the public record.

While some might consider telling the truth about a candidate to be a "dirty trick," others feel the practice may actually make an important contribution to electoral politics.

Mitt Romney called it "disgusting" that the Obama campaign was citing actual facts about when he worked at Bain Capital. Such truthboating is expected to escalate as the presidential election approaches.

While sitting at a cafe, bar, beach, library or other public place where wireless access is not available you may pay a tether-pimp money to have access to the Internet by tethering to the tether-pimp's wireless device.

a game like truth or dare but without the dare because when you get past the age of 12 dares are no fun anymore because everyones done that stupid shit already. in this game its basically you take turns asking each other questions and you have to be honest usually personal questions often relating to sex or sexual things(ex.are you a virgin? how far have you gone?)
