Congressman Paul is on a top 50 list
Podcast Episode
WASHINGTON Janesville native, Congressman Paul Ryan, is known for fiscal conservatism and pushing issues like social security reform. Ryan is considered a rising star in Washington, but the brightness of that star was revealed this week when he was listed as one of the top 50 most beautiful people on Capital Hill, in the Washington based publication "The Hill."
Ryan says he's only trying to impress one person, his wife Janna. Ryan says he doesn't think his stand on issues got him on the list, and it certainly wasn't his clothes, which he says he buys "off the rack" in Milwaukee.
The bottom line according to Ryan is,... there is no bottom line. At the end of the day, Ryan says, that and $1.50, will get you a cup of coffee.
Congressman Paul Ryan, who is very serious about the real issues on capital hill, was very gracious in conducting this "not so serious" interview with the WCLO News Radio 1230 News Department.

Ryan is Bushs puppet. Wants to privatize social security. Wants health care saving accounts. What an idiot. How can you save in a healthcare saving account if you don't have a job. To bad Ryan is for Out sourcing jobs. His pockets are full of pharmacy money. Too bad Thomas won't give hime the Election this year . Perhaps he should think more of the welfare of the people of the first District. Beauty, I don't find him physicially or intelectually attractive. Votes with Bush 95 percent of the time. Time to kick out the Bums.

I wonder how a person with internet access could have trouble finding out how Paul Ryan stands and votes. It is the responsibility of each of us to stay informed. It is not the responsibility of anyone else to inform us.

Interesting, I wonder why we in Janesville never get to hear where he actually stands and/or votes on the issues?
