http://www.bostonglobe.com/news/politics/2012/08/16/ryan/2OztjZ23ynaDLGhreyfzyJ/story.html?s_campaign=sm_twWASHINGTON _ After seeking millions of dollars from a federal stimulus program he opposed on grounds it would not help the economy, Republican vice presidential candidate Rep. Paul Ryan then appeared on a Boston talk radio program and denied he lobbied the Obama administration for the home state aid.
On October 28, 2010, after the Wisconsin Republican penned at least five letters to two federal departments seeking grants under the Obama administrations economic recovery package, Ryan responded to a caller on WBZs Nightside with Dan Rea who asked if he sought any of the money. Ryan said that he would not vote against something then write to the government to ask them to send us money.
I did not request any stimulus money, he continued.

Ohh ... Silly question.
the gop will continue lying until the "liberal" media proves that they will not go along with the lie.

(1 post)Ha! Ryan finally admitted that he had applied for and received Stimulus money - did we ever doubt it? 3 Request letters have been produced and Ryan presented a prepared statement that was something like: I didn't mean to do it...someone must have made me sign them
