The most dishonest convention speech ? ever?
The New Republic
by Jonathan Cohn
08/30/12
You re going to read and hear a lot about Paul Ryan s speech on Wednesday night. And I imagine most of it will be about how Ryan s speech played, with the party loyalists in Tampa, with the television viewers across the country, and eventually with the swing voters who will decide the election. I d like to talk, instead, about what Ryan actually said, not because I find Ryan s ideas objectionable, although I do, but because I thought he was so brazenly willing to twist the truth...

It was perhaps inevitable that the GOP would turn on the Ron Paul supporters to eliminate them from their version of a body politic. I predicted it would take place and so did a number of others. But what has been surprising is the timing...

So, why did Romney do it? After all, he had the nomination sewn up. Why not embrace the Paul crowd instead of alienating it? Why not seat all the Paul delegates who were elected according to the existing rules, given that the final outcome wasn t in doubt anyway? Why not give Paul a speaking slot?

Ryan s Diet of Whoppers
Eugene Robinson, Washington Post Writers Group: ''Has there ever been a more dishonest presidential campaign than the one Republicans are waging right now? ... It s hardly unusual for politicians to highlight convenient facts and ignore inconvenient ones. But I honestly can t recall a campaign so firmly grounded in untruth.''

Republicans On the Ground Keeping Ryan s Budget Plan at Arm s Length
Jonathan Weisman, The New York Times News Service: ''Even as Mitt Romney and Representative Paul D. Ryan exhort Republicans to embrace their proposed Medicare changes and spending cuts, the party s rank and file is growing less enthusiastic about the fight than the top of the ticket. Republican lawmakers and candidates are distancing themselves from the Ryan budget plan, which helped make the proposed changes a national issue.''

''The Party Is Over''
Bill Moyers, Moyers & Co.: ''The growing power of the religious right is one reason my guest left the Republican Party and became an Independent. ''The mixture of politics and religion,'' [Mike Lofgren] says, 'debases both, and has turned the GOP into an apocalyptic sect.' He has his problems with Democrats, too. For one thing, he says, both parties 'are captives to corporate loot.'

The Week of Living Dangerously
William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: '''The right-wing reavers, slowly empowered over these last decades by the GOP, have finally slipped the leash and are running wild. They have no reservations whatsoever about making the core of their campaign about swatting the wasp s nest of racism as a means of turning out the only constituency they have left: angry white people.''

Romney s Success at Bain Capital: The Scam as Business Model
Dean Baker, Truthout: ''Private equity companies like Bain Capital are not primarily about producing wealth. They profit largely by siphoning off wealth created elsewhere in the economy. There are many different ways in which this diversion of wealth is accomplished. The simplest and most common trick is gaming the tax code.''

Paul Ryan s speech Wednesday night may have accomplished one good thing: It finally may have dispelled the myth that he is a Serious, Honest Conservative. Indeed, Mr. Ryan s brazen dishonesty left even his critics breathless.
