Giggle-snort: Clueless libs praise Fox for exposing Paul Ryan’s ‘lies’
http://twitter.com/#!/thelittleidiot/status/241052236212486144
The Paul Ryan-deranged Left developed a strange new respect for Fox News overnight.
Progressives lavished praise on Fox for publishing a “fact check” of Ryan’s GOP convention speech that called it “an apparent attempt to set the world record for the greatest number of blatant lies.” Naturally the highly retweeted column included too-good-to-check falsehoods like this one:
While Ryan blamed President Obama for the shut down of a GM plant in Janesville, Wisconsin, the plant was actually closed under President George W. Bush.
The plant closed in 2009 while Obama was in office.
What these genius libs failed to note is that the piece was an opinion column written by progressive activist Sally Kohn.

But never mind that. Even Fox knows Ryan’s pants are on fire. It was reported as straight news, right lefties?
Bless their hearts.
Filmmaker Michael Moore got in on the action, retweeting tweets from bathtub boy Keith Olbermann and dull comedian Patton Oswalt.

You might want to preserve this Fox piece on #LyinRyan before it disappears. Along with the writer. http://t.co/8lyXLWyH

And the flock of progressive parrots couldn’t wait to spread the word.

I am flabbergasted that Fox News would be honest about Ryan's speech and its many lies. That writer will soon be unemployed from Fox.

You know you're REALLY lying when even Fox News calls you out – a rare moment of honest coverage re Paul Ryan http://t.co/IIsn8MJc #RNC2012

This is refreshing. Fox News is honest. “@pattonoswalt: WOW. FOX News calls bullshit on Ryan's lie-packed speech: http://t.co/JORCG455”

When FOX News criticises your speech, you're one of two things, a liberal or a complete whackjob. And Paul Ryan certainly isn't a liberal.

Holy Smokes! Even Fox News is calling P. Ryan's speech a mountain of lies and cow dung: http://t.co/W8OkfSov

One lib tried to rain on the Ryan-bashing parade.
You guys, it’s exciting that an “official” Fox News commentator called Ryan’s speech deceitful, but she is their “progressive” columnist.

Honesty and reading comprehension? That won’t do. Time to get with the liberal program, doll!
Update:
Sally Kohn weighs in:
It's so funny, people keep thanking me for being a journalist but I'm not. I'm an opinion writer who tries to be fair.

Hey, she’s trying. Very trying.
