Boston Globe Runs Non-Story on Romney Tenure at Bain Capital

John Sununu Laughs at Andrea Mitchell Defending Obama's Use of Bogus R
It really has been hysterical watching the Obama-loving media the past few weeks defend the President using bogus information reported by the Washington Post falsely accusing Mitt Romney of outsourcing jobs while at Bain Capital.

Washington Post's Kessler Slams 'Obama's Misleading Tweet on Romney's
The Washington Post's popular Fact Checker political column isn't known for being particularly balanced when it comes to choosing which statements to dissect.
