The leftists are also bleating away about Ryan's supposed "lies" about the GM Janesville plant- Twitchy has a good summary, and smackdown of the left's talking points on that issue.

[austinaero]

Yes, the left is spinning like that proverbial Maytag on crack that we keep hearing about. That’s a sure sign they feel the damage.

Notice who we are NOT hearing from? Debbie WS, Axe, Burton, Messina, Stephanie Cutter,,,where did all the lying liars go?

[Puppage]

So, a lefty friend of mine just posted this tirade....is there any truth to what she's saying?

It's frightening on every level for a woman if Mitt Romeny and Paul Ryan get elected. We might as well move to Afghanistan. They are planning on incorporating a constitutional ban on abortions in almost ALL cases, including rape and incest. How truly disgusting is that? So, they are saying that if a woman gets raped they are going to force her to have the baby if one is conceived?

I highly doubt it, but I'd like some other input. Thanks.

It’s like Obama took the National Credit Card and immediately ran to the mall with it and hasn’t stopped charging things to it.

Charge #2: Paul Ryan criticized Obama for ignoring the recommendations of the Simpson-Bowles deficit commission. But Ryan voted against those recommendations himself. [Snip] It’s true that Paul Ryan voted against the Simpson-Bowles recommendations. He did so because Simpson-Bowles raised taxes while doing little to nothing about health-care spending, the biggest driver of growing deficits. However, by rejecting Simpson-Bowles, Ryan felt morally obligated to put forth his own plan, and did so—several times, in the form of his Path to Prosperity and his 2011 and 2012 House budget resolutions.

And besides that, the Simpson-Bowles plan was the one that emerged, so the greater point is Obama didn't bother to push for its implementation.

Doesn't matter. The story that Ryan lied is out on the AP feed, picked up by Yahoo, MSN, and every other lazy-assed "news" organization then published far and wide, in both print and electrons. The leftists would be bleating regardless of the veracity of Ryan's claims, but now it is in the national consciousness that he's just another racist, lying Republican.

These rebuttals are preaching to the choir, never traveling beyond the hyper-political conservative blog-o-sphere. The average news consumer, who just glances at headlines and accepts them as fact, will believe them without question since it fits so neatly into the convenient narrative the LSM has been crafting for the last 4 years.

Paul Ryan really turned me on last night. Perhaps the best speaker so far. I say ‘perhaps’ because I'm not sure it was better then Mia Love's speech. If all black America’s had her attitude, they would be a whole lot better off today then they are. (Interesting, MSNBC did not televise her speech, could there be some racial discrimination going on here?). Now Mitt Romney's turn is next, it had better be real good. But for some reason Mia Love reminds me of Sara Palin.

[MN Doc]

Interesting that Fox News seemed to pick up on the same theme, that Ryan was untruthful at times. The second of the "Three Words" is "Deceptive."

The Janesville plant is not closed. It’s just that no one is working there and no vehicles are being produced...but it’s not close!
