Curious so I googled the Annenberg Foundation (sm)
Posted: Sep 25, 2012
and I chose the first entry and clicked on it. The entire page is dedicated to slamming Romney - I see nothing except good and wonderful things about Obama. You are going to tell posters here that FactCheck.org is a nonpartisan site to check facts? . That is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. Take a look for yourselves. I posted this at the top of the board so everyone would see it. Someone below was singing the praises of Fact Check. They appear to be a joke.

This does not change - the fact that
[ In Reply To ..]Obamacare will not be fully implemented until 2014 and that it will take several years beyond that to get any idea what it's long-term effects on premiums are going to be. It also doesn't change the fact that health care premiums rose an average of 10% between 2000 and 2004 and that since then the premiums rose an average of 5% per year. It doesn't matter who posted these facts. It matters that these ARE the facts, for Pete's sake.
Wasn't it Romney who said...sm - JTBB
[ In Reply To ..]his campaign will not be "dictated" by fact checkers? LOLOL. You can lead a horse to water....
Funny, I clicked on the first link too - And I don't see anything about either one.
[ In Reply To ..]Glad I checked, too.
I found that too - It's obvious
[ In Reply To ..]Every article on that page slams Romney and pumps up Obama. NOW tell me that Factcheck isn't fair. You have a group that claims to be independent, but you see who pays them and who they want to win.
As they say...Factcheck is anything but factual.
Please tell me what you're looking at? - Annenberg
[ In Reply To ..]The Annenberg Foundation and Annenberg Policy Center pages I'm finding don't have anything on the front page about either Romney or Obama. The Fact Check site has bad things to say about both. I am curious what site you got in your Google search. I'm looking at Annenberg's main sites. Thanks.
This was the first link earlier. Now it's not but this is it. - OP
[ In Reply To ..]nm Link
I found this interesting article written back...sm - VTMT
[ In Reply To ..]in Oct '08 about the Annenberg Foundation and FactCheck.org. People on this board scoff at FactCheck as a liberal site. Not so according to this article. Walter Annenberg was a CONSERVATIVE philanthropist not a liberal. Yes, it is true!

FBI James Comey's Clinton Foundation Connection.Sep 11, 2016
professional history and relationships shows that the Obama cabinet leader — now under fire for his handling of the investigation of Hillary Clinton — is deeply entrenched in the big-money cronyism culture of Washington, D.C. His personal and professional relationships — all undisclosed as he announced the Bureau would not prosecute Clinton — reinforce bipartisan concerns that he may have politicized the criminal probe. These concerns focus on millions of dollars that Comey accepted ...

Clinton Foundation Donors Got Weapons DealsMay 26, 2015

Curious As To What Some Of You ThinkMar 28, 2012
about President Obama speaking personally about the killing of Trayvon. I don't condone what Zimmerman did. It is my personal opinion that it is kinda hard to say you killed someone in self defense when you were chasing them. The 911 person told him to stop following him and that he had done enough. Do I think Trayvon was a saint and never screwed up in his life...no. As to the President...I don't think he should have gotten involved. I don't se ...
