9. When CNN fact checked the Obama/Rezko statement at the debate ....
they, evidently, did not have the totality of information that the LA times appears to have access to. CNN tried to minimize the connection, emphasizing, apparently the only connection was merely the lot next door that has been sold.

Perhaps the LA Times needs to share true information with CNN, pretending that this would quell some of the blatant CNN bias towards Obama.

And, ironically, in that same stellar fact-checking segment, CNN tried to indicate that Obama speaking about Hillary working on the board of Wal-Mart was 100% truthful, that she was there, case closed. This, of course, was an insult to the mind of most democrats, that know full well Hillary was on the board, and it was an insult to the mind of most democrats that CNN totally ignored the real hate Obama was trying to spread regarding the shipping of jobs overseas while Hillary was on the board.

CNN has proven the stance they will take during the primaries. "CNN fact checking" will remain an oxymoron. Anything Obama says or does will be uncriticized. And watch out democrats during the general election. CNN very well could take the side of the republicans and pull these same tricks they now prototype with acumen.
