"He obviously misspoke..."

[Drunken Irishman]

Ryan misspeaks a lot.

So did he misspeak or purposefully manipulate the data to make it sound worse?
"He obviously misspoke, but it's still an apples to apples comparison," Ryan spokesman Brendan Buck said. "The point remains: bankruptcies are up dramatically under President Obama compared to the Carter years."

Spewing the BS like all Rs about how horrible the stimulus was, while requesting stimulus funds. Initially said he did not, when the actual letters came to light, "gee, I just sign what the shove in my face ..."

Every time they excuse his lies, it is based on his being incompetent.
