Well said. We know this:
-Ryan voted against a crackdown on China’s currency yet blames Obama.
-Ryan lied about requesting Obama’s stimulus money.
http://news.yahoo.com/presented-letters-ryan-admits-requesting-stimulus-cash-234025910--abc-news-politics.html -Ryan presided over a 30?ob loss in his district.
-Ryan’s Plan starves the government to pay for massive tax breaks for the rich. It’s a book on how to kill the middle class.
-Ryan voted for every Bush spending bill, which drove the deficit way up.
-Ryan wants to turn Medicare into a voucher system that will cost seniors on average $6K/year more and drive up health care costs.
-Ryan introduced a Social Security privatization measure in 2004 so far-reaching that the Bush White House called it “irresponsible.” Ryan wants to deny Social Security to others, but he used his father’s social security survivor benefits to help pay for his education at Miami University of Ohio.
-Ryan opposes abortion in all cases, even to save the woman’s life.
-Ryan co-sponsored a "personhood" bill that would outlaw most birth control, and outlaw in-vitro fertilization. A woman who has miscarried could find herself on trial for murder.
-Ryan and Romney are the first GOP ticket in generations without a veteran and with virtually no experience of foreign policy. Talk about surrendering your strength.
-Ryan attacked and voted against the plan that would have reduced the nation’s debt by trillions of dollars with a combination of spending cuts and new revenue. (Bowles-Simpson deficit plan 2010)
-Ryan's budget plan is a direct attack upon the American people, the elderly, the poor, the mentally ill, the out of work, and the disenfranchised. Nearly 60 prominent Catholic thinkers and leaders condemned it as heartless, cruel and un-Christian.
http://voices.yahoo.com/faith-leaders-paul-ryans-budget-plan-immoral-11292466.html?cat=9 -Ryan bragged he got into politics because of the impact on him by Ayn Rand, the philosopher of personal greed and egotism, , but later tried to deny it because it was bad publicity.
-In almost 13 years as a congressman, Ryan proposed just two bills that have passed and become law (one renamed a post office in his district). It’s a low number by any standard, but particularly for a chairman of the powerful Budget Committee.
-Ryan traded on inside information to avoid the crash of 2008.

Ron Wyden (D-OR) late last year that mirrors key elements of his Medicare plan. Wyden voted against Ryan’s budget and said Romney’s characterization of their work was dishonest.
