1. Seemed to be a little flustered, even on home territory at FauxNews

his jumping into tea party lies sure shows that he won't get far when the true facts continue to rise to the surface - 'that the promise that government made to them, is kept... that is what we're doing... so that the program is solvent for their children and grandchildren, which is what we're doing....'

yea, that's what you're doing... uh huh

3. But I was told that teabaggers were unaligned with either Party.
Teabaggers in 2010 were a new wave of voters who hated BOTH parties. Is Paul saying that Teabaggers are a wholly owned operating subsidiary of the RNC? That's there's not a dimes worth of difference between the Teabagger and the Republican?

I'm getting the impression that the lovefest Republicans had in 2010 with the Teabaggers will be a hatefest in the run-up to 2012.

6. Fox and friends is an unfunny joke, here's a recap of this PR opportunity, er...interview:
Gretchen: Congressman Ryan, you're so correct about Medicare, and you've been very honest and brave in being correct. Being someone who is so completely correct, honest, and brave, can you tell us how it feels, as a brave person, to be so correct, and honest?

Ryan: Gretchen I just want to say that I appreciate the bold lack of journalistic integrity this show exhibits. Your question is extremely important, because it provides an opportunity for me to present my opinions as facts, without any challenge from you and your colleagues. Thank you for this showcase!


God give me the strength to drive nails into my eyes and ears before I ever decide to watch or hear such nonsense again...

7. BTW- "Obama is trying to end Medicare" was said by Rush today - latest talking point
I listened to Ryan's two lengthy word moments and still can't understand what he is even saying. WAY to wordy for the Fox News audience - they are devolving into nuance and getting away from their short bumpersticker slogans, which is all they have.
