So the "press" has no trouble calling out Ryan for lying about running?

Well, running times ARE very, very important, and they affect the voters' lives directly. The voters deserve to know.

Just don't expect "reporters" to expose his claims about medicare and the deficit. Voters don't need to know that, and besides, it's not like he made these claims in writing. Oh, he did? Well, still....both sides do it, or something.....

Where are the REAL journalists who should be exposing Romney/Ryan's lies every single day until they both
correct each and every lie they tell about Obama.

called them fact checkers. They're trying to make that a dirty word.
