Another bad selection for VP. I think Republicans thought if they could win with Cheney they could win with anyone.

Speaking of the truest thing I heard is from Clint Eastwood, POLITICIANS ARE EMPLOYEES! You’re fired.

Lies of all kinds ARE consequential. If he’ll lie about this he will lie about ANYthing and has so over and over and over again and will in the future. I don’t want this person making decisions about MY life!

The most appalling aspect of the numerous lies told by Ryan is the total lack of guts of the mainstream media to actually call him for what he is — a blatant lier.

His angle on global warming is possibly his most dangerous lie, which applies to most of the G.O.P. The only reason I respected Romney is that he couldn’t bring himself to totally neglect that issue, but bringing Ryan on board shows he’s not serious about including it in their “tough choices” rhetoric.

Republicans just don’t respect nature. They claim the Invisible Man above will prevent us from doing any real harm. Who needs science when you’ve got faith in magic?

Yet another try by the left to take any and all attention away from the real issues; jobs, economy, healthcare.

The scary part is that even with evidence that Paul Ryan has a misrepresented the truth on many occasions, you still hear Republicans desperate for anyone but Obama saying things like “I respect Paul Ryan because he’s known for telling the truth.”
I thought the most horrifying, yet typical response from some of the upper honchos in the party responding to the situation. “We won’t be held hostage by fact finders.”
What? What? What?

This whopper does speak to Ryan’s character and his suitability as VP – or God forbid, President. All runners know their PR (personal record) time. We train hard and every mile is well earned. A lie this big is shameful and telling.
