Yes, this is tongue in cheek but it's scary how close to the truth it may be. The New Yorker Online Only August 30, 2012 Ryan Launches Campaign Theme of Lying About Everything Posted by Andy Borowitz Read more http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/borowitzreport/2012/08/ryan-launches-campaign-theme-of-lying-about-everything.html#ixzz25FULfNpv TAMPA ( The Borowitz Report)—In his speech to the Republican National Convention last night, Vice-Presidential nominee Paul Ryan test-drove what the Romney-Ryan campaign says will be a major theme for the 2012 Republican campaign: "lying about everything." "The question was, how many whoppers could you pack into one speech?" the campaign adviser Tracy Klugian said. "All I can say is, when Fox News accuses a Republican of lying, you know you’ve witnessed something historic." Mr. Ryan pronounced himself pleased with his performance, noting that he only strayed into the truth when he recited the names of his wife and children. "That won’t happen again," he laughed. "Call it opening-night jitters." As for Presidential nominee Mitt Romney, he said he was working "around the clock" to add additional lies to his speech tonight: "I’m no Paul Ryan, but, darn it, I’m going to do my best."
