Paul Ryan Is a Liar

No really, he’s a liar. And it may not matter.

After a month of “vacation” from this blog, there is so much I want to write about (Paralympics, space exploration, American craft breweries), but last night, all of that took a back seat to Paul Ryan’s speech at the Republican National Convention in Tampa.

I’m used to politicians exaggerating or stretching the truth, but last night’s exhibition was, in the words of Fox News contributor Sally Kohn, “an apparent attempt to set the world record for the greatest number of blatant lies and misrepresentations slipped into a single political speech” – yeah, that’s what a Fox News Contributor had to say.
