To the editor:
Another day, another article fact checking Trump. I’m all for fact checking, especially on important issues (which these weren’t; they were trivial), but I wonder why the fact checking urgency now.
I don’t recall any such angst when Obama, arguably the biggest liar ever to occupy the White House, needed the checking.
I was thinking this is just another example of media bias, but then it occurred to me: Had you applied such zeal to Obama, you would have risked running out of space in the paper. Clearly it was a merely practical decision.

Note from KBJ: There's a simple reason why leftists cry "liar!" at every turn. They're projecting. Their own view is that lying is justified if it advances the progressive cause. ("The end justifies the means.") They assume, quite falsely, that conservatives share this view.
