MSNBC Fail: Graphics Team Confuses Ron Paul with Paul Ryan

On today's edition of MSNBC Live, anchor Thomas Roberts talked with Michael Barbaro of the New York Times discussing the so-called Young Guns who are on the short list to be Mitt Romney's running mate: Sen. Kelly Ayotte (N.H.), Rep. Paul Ryan (Wis.), Gov. Bobby Jindal (La.), and Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.).

But when the MSNBC graphics team showed photos of the Young Guns, they accidentally used a photo of Rep. Ron Paul, the septuagenarian former Republican presidential candidate with strong libertarian convictions, in lieu of Paul Ryan. See our video below:

Well they're names are both Paul and they're both have the letter "R" in their names, so what's the big deal *wink*

A closer look match would have been Pat Paulson, surpised MSNBC didn’t use his image.

You have to admit it’s rare to see Baraqqis demonstrating without pre-printed union made signs....

Then there was what MSLSD did to Niger Innis’ name. But I don’t think that was accidental.

Since Ron Paul is so old and Paul Ryan hates old people, therefore according to MCNBC Ron Paul wants to thro himself over the cliff?????

Really does anyone of consequence watch that joke channel?

I completely forget about it as a news outlet until Rush says something amusing about them. They’re nothing but an agent provocateur and everyone knows it...it’s amazing that they even get any advertising.

Somebody reposted a link to a 2008 Howard Stern piece on one of his lackeys interviewing BHO supporters in Harlem.

The most telling question with a "Yes" response was: "So you're OK with BHO choosing Sarah Palin as his running mate?"
