Jimmyjk, How was our form of government set-up, and organized? What iare the founding documents, the foundation of our government structure? The U.S. Constitution limits the power of government, specifically the executive branch to ensure all of our liberties. The problem with executives like obama is the dislike the Constitution and regard it as a limiting document, they want to be free to install their views and dominance over the electorate. This limiting power also applies to leaders I would support and protects people who's view differ from mine also. The original fight to attain freedom from tyranny, and self government, is at the base of these founding documents.
As John Huntsman, a former Presidential contender for the Republican nomination, said recently on Steven Colbert's tv program, our country has a big problem with our TRUTH DEFICIT,which is most emblematic in the Republican rhetoric!
@bogsidebunny - She reported the NEWS that was being reported on ALL of the broadcast real news programs and in most newspapers calling Ryan a liar on their frontpages. Your attempt to separate her reporting from FOX just shows that you realize that FOX USUALLY does not present the REAL NEWS. When someone disagrees with your current belief, you should check to see if they might know something that you missed before trashing them.
paddyRanger.... What does being conservative and republican mean to you? No taxes, very religious, no government? What do you hate about liberals?
Sally Kohn (like Alan Colmes) is a Liberal, Socialist poodle & FoxNews part time Contributor....NOT a full time FoxNews columnist. She often is used to balance the debate with a Conservative. But her "opinions" and observations are about as useless as the Greek economy. This blog should be ashamed that they've misrepresented this story. Then again anything associated with the Liberal Irish Culture can only see through the Liberal rose coloured glasses.
Chris Matthews thought Paul Ryan's speech was great. He called it a "Barn Burner". Ooops.
The GOP middle class will vote to give tax breaks to the rich and a lower living standard for themselves,thus voting their children into poverty. How thick can you be!!!
I know why you think his speech was great !! You can't read, Peterson !! Nor can you type !! You are the ideal Paul Ryan supporter !!!!
I think that Ryan's speech was great !! The truth really hurts doesn't it. At least none of the speakers needed a teleprompter !!
I guess the tidal surge was too much for Fox to buck. For the very first time ever, newsapers all over are using the word "LIES" in FRONT PAGE stories about the GOP commercials and speechs. TV reporters are interviewing the speakers after their speechs at the convention and fact checking them live, on air. When Scott Pelley of CBS read verbatim the S&P's statement about downgrading the US because the Republicans in congress refused to compromise on revenues in the Boehner/Obama deal last summer, Ryan got this big "Cat That Ate The Canary" grin on his face. He knew that he had gambled on telling a big LIE and had been caught on national broadcast TV primetime news. The GOP has no Admiral David Farragut this year but their battle cry seems to be "D*** the fact checkers, full speed ahead with the lies! It seems very UNAMERICAN that the Party of Lincoln would stoop to lies and disenfranchisement as their only path to election. It sounds like the Ole South Dixiecrat's stratagies during the first half of the 20th century. Oh wait, that IS the new Republican party isn't it. Lies and PoleTaxes, back and back we go wishing for the Antebellum life and "fighting for the PROPERTY we gained by honest toil." (Exerpted from the words to "The Bonnie Blue Flag")
@Porickseantuny - That is the point! Under ObamaCARES - the Affordable Care Act - seniors would no longer have COPAYS and the Donut hole is filled for them. Obama takes the money ($716 billion) from Insurance Companies and gives back it to seniors. From the rich to the poor like Robin Hood. Ryan's budget takes the same money exactly from Medicare but uses it to offset his 0% Capital Gains rate for the rich like Romney. Since they repeal ObamaCARES, seniors keep their copays and their donut hole. Robin Hood in reverse!!!
Ryan gave his GOP audience exactly what they dream of-- gold-plated lies wrapped in Koch brothers' cash. They'll grasp any excuse to vote for the R & R team, and they got plenty of excuses, um, I mean lies, really rich lies.
@Seanmor - He may not have bragged about it lately but Obama has quadrupled the resources available to the Border Patrol along our southern border since taking office. He also has deported many more illegals in three and one half years than Cheney/Bush did in eight years. Isn't this article about Ryan's GOP LIES! Oh Yea, I get it now, you were just pointing out another one of them - THANKS!
If social security recipients must now pay a co-payment of 716 million which would have been reibursed previously but will no longer be reibursed because Obamacare has transferred 716 million, aren't the social security recipients out of pocket 716 million? How is that false?
paddyRanger A simple check to "Factcheck" will show you the real facts. The Romney campaign says that President Obama’s health care law has cut $716 billion out of Medicare. But that’s a reduction in the future growth (cost avoidance)of spending over 10 years, not a slashing of the current Medicare budget. And the reduction extends the life of the Medicare trust fund.
