http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/08/obama-campaign-shreds-lies-in-ryan-speech/=snip= It would appear that ABC is on OUR side...
Democrats claim that perhaps the rankest hypocrisy from Ryan came when he slammed Obama for not embracing the deficit-reduction proposals of the Simpson-Bowles Commission. He thanked them, sent them on their way and did exactly nothing, Ryan said last night. Left unsaid is that Ryan, who was a member of the panel, voted against the same plan.
Hee hee-- Dems get the last word in the article:

Obama campaign manager Stephanie Cutter...argued today that Ryan demonstrated that his and Romneys campaign has an open strategy of defying the truth.

Although, sadly, since this was written, Lyin Ryan got in an interview with Diane Sawyer where (presumably) he lies his way out of his speech that was all lies. I like to think he's stepping in it.
