As A Lobbyist, Paul Ryan's Wife Made A Career Representing Cigar Interests

Last edited Thu Aug 16, 2012, 01:58 PM - Edit history (1)

Before she became known to the world as Mrs. Paul Ryan, the vice presidential hopeful's stay-at-home wife, Janna Ryan made quite a name for herself in Washington's legal circles.

Janna Ryan graduated from Wellesley College and earned her law degree from George Washington University.

And that impressive education paid off.

"Over just three years, Ryan's 20 corporate clients paid more than $2.7 million in lobbying fees to her two employers, Pricewaterhouse Coopers and Williams & Jensen," The Huffington Post reported Tuesday, citing records compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics.

Next time I see her say, "We don't need to release our tax records

I'll bring up the fact

She's smart. She knows better then this. She's no Sarah Palin.
