Imagine, while overseas, President Obama and Mitt Romney have a foot race..President Obama wins. . . Romney loses


New York Times reports: President Obama and Mitt Romney competed in a two man race overseas and President Obama won.

Fox News reports: President Obama and Mitt Romney competed in an international race. Romney came in second. Obama came in next to last!

..."If Ronald Reagan walked on water, the liberal media would report 'Reagan can't swim'."

Of course, Fox actually does what conservatives of that era imagined the networks did.
