ROFL.. Ryan Lies about Lying.

Last edited Tue Sep 4, 2012, 02:26 PM - Edit history (1)

They just showed a clip of Paul Ryan on Mrs. Greenspan's show stating that he never said Obama was responsible for the Janesville Plant closing. WTH???

Nobody is calling him on any of this? They're just going to run lie on top of lies. Does anybody have that clip?

The man is physically incapable of telling the truth; if he even gets near doing so, there is something in his body that just shuts that thing right down....

3. I work with a compulsive, habitual liar and it's useless to call her on her lies

She goes into a spiral explanatory rationalization that just leaves your head spinning. I've likened following these 'explanations' to swatting at a fruit fly. No sooner do you think you know where she is, and you focus in, then off she goes in another direction. We have all pretty much given up.

he didn't utter the words Obama was responsible for the Jamestown plant closing. He did sure imply it though.

He claimed the plant shut down in 2009 (and who was in office in 2009)?

8. If he said Jamestown then it isn't a lie. But still intentional deception.

Because the plant in question is located in Janesville.
