Harry Reid Mocks Ryan!

[SunsetDreams]

I am liking Harry Reid these days after going after Romney over taxes now he is onto Paul Ryan's fake marathon time. Harry has some gravitas on this subject having run 15 marathons himself. In fact in 1972 Harry ran the Boston Marathon in 3:15:00. A very impressive time.

Politico, AP and SFGate have the story. the money quote:

"I'd like to take a minute and apply the Ryan math to my marathon times," the Nevada senator said. "Using the Ryan math, my time would not have been a world's record, but within minutes of a world record. I could have made the Olympic team. Using Ryan math, I would have been superb. Well, Ryan math doesn't work in marathons because you know what ... you can always check someone's math and his math doesn't work for running a marathon or anything else."

Huzzah! Yes Sir Mr. Majority Leader!
Reid also said that Ryan's math doesn't work for taxes or Medicare.

"It doesn't work with anything that he's suggested or opined about. No more than his little assertion that I guess he thought no one would check it out,"

Give em hell Harry!

1. That he does. Truman reincarnated.

Whilst in Harrisburg, IL, Truman delivered a speech attacking the Republicans. During the speech a supporter yelled out "Give 'em Hell, Harry!".

Truman replied, "I don't give them Hell. I just tell the truth about them and they think it's Hell."

Subsequently, "Give 'em Hell, Harry!" became a lifetime slogan for Truman supporters.

9. Long ago, my grandfather told me

that Harry Truman was the best president of his lifetime.

Bold statement considering the number of terms that the beloved FDR served.

5. I'd bet serious money that he's NOT of the

magic-underwear-wearing ilk.

12. Harry's family was too poor

to travel in the same circle as the Romneys.

8. What do you expect from Ryan?

The man gets his economic ideas from a fictional novel for god's sake!
