When some old dinosaur in the Senate gets caught in a lie because he forgets we live in an age where everyone can access video evidence of what he said, that's one thing.
But Paul Ryan is younger than I am! There is NO excuse for acting as though people can't go online and fact-check you (against both "reality" and "what you said last month")! There's only one explanation - the guy is a pathological liar.
Ryan is a liar and a bullshitter, worse than even the average member of his awful party.
But there's no hypocrisy here. These kind of attacks are so common -- Politician X railed against law Y, then sought benefits of law Y. But there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
Consider: suppose that I'm playing a poker tournament with friends, and the group decides that half of the tournament entry fee will go to provide pizza for the tournament. I vociferously oppose this, because I think the entire entry fee should go as prizes to the winners. But I get voted down. Now, when the pizza comes, am I obliged not to partake? Obviously not. I'm going to eat, and I'll be right to do so, because I paid for that pizza, against my wishes.
Likewise, Ryan didn't want the ACA, but the ACA passed, and now that it passed, OF COURSE he's going to try to benefit from it.
Better would be your poker buddies also insist on collecting extra to feed the hungry poor family camped in the lot across the street. You vehemently oppose the plan, but when voted down, you go out and give the homeless family their share and tell them they have you to thank.
9, The Democrats are doing far better than the Republicans. Also, I'm praying to Santa Claus that he'll go to your house, and smite you, and you spend an eternity making toys in his workshop.
So, I don't use twitter but someone needs to start a trend like Chuck Norris facts for Ryan: #ryanfacts perhaps?
Paul Ryan personally saved the 62 survivors from the Hindenberg disaster #ryanfacts
Paul Ryan was the SEAL who put the bullet in Osama's face #ryanfacts

Also, in before the registered troll "You Gotta Be Kidding Me" says something about Biden in an attempt to take the focus off the topic at hand.
