Reconfirming what we already knew: Pundit/PoltiFact is a left-leaning shill for libtards, bending over backwards to help Obarry as much as it can get away with.

Keep spreading the word.

I get sick of all the “fact check” sites. It is almost a warning that you are about to get leftist propagandized spin.

The left started setting these sites up to muddy the waters after they saw how successful the lefty run snopes site was. One thing we all can say about the left is that they are great liars.

On CNN, I said, "If black America were a country, it would be the 15th wealthiest in the world."

Sorry, Larry, you said it wrong. Your critic is right.

Had you said black America has the 15th largest economy in the world, you'd have been right. But when we talk about wealthy nations, we are generally talking about the size of their economy relative to their population.

IOW, per capital GDP, not total GDP.

Here's a list of the world's richest and poorest nations. Little to do with total GDP. Qatar, Luxembourg and Singapore head the list.

What might make more sense is to compare total and per capita GDP for all the world's "black" nations.

I don’t need a ‘fact checker paid by anybody’, to KNOW that when you double a salary, somebody’s gonna get fired, to cover that added expense!

You know, I just remembered when the fact checking movement really took off. It wasn’t just the left wing snopes sight. It was after Al Gore’s first debate when point after point was shown to be lies in the hours and days following the debate

It devastated his election effort.

Larry Elder is the guy whose name I never can recall when discussing conservative black columnists. Maybe writing this comment will help sear it into my memory along with Walter E. Williams and Thomas Sowell.

Jon Greenberg and Aaron Sharockman wrote a slander piece on George Will last week. It got front page!

First they mislead/distort what he said then they lie. Here is the email I sent the paper.


On the 10/20 front page Jon and Aaron write:

“Will went on to say doctors believe a “sneeze or some cough” can spread Ebola.
That would indeed be scary. If it were correct.
Will’s claim rates “False”

First: Will was quoting doctors. So his claim is not false since some doctors believe it!

Second: On the CDC site for Ebola Transmission:

“... if a symptomatic patient with Ebola coughs or sneezes on someone, and saliva or mucus come into contact with tat person’s eyes, nose or mouth, these fluids may transmit the disease.”

Conclusion: Jon and Aaron’s piece rates “FALSE” and moreover puts people at risk. I really doubt that you will issue a retraction but the public deserves one on the FRONT PAGE!

Tampa Bay Times is a liberal newspaper...the Tampa Tribune is the ‘conservative’ paper.
