Running mate Ryan has his share of flaws

And I thought Mitt was mendacious and immoral. Leave it to him to embrace as running-mate Paul Ryan, who makes Mitt seem most amateurish in mendacity and immorality.

While Ryan’s reputation for immorality preceded him with prior budget proposals, the depths of his depravity and ability to persistently lie in the face of facts, which soon surfaced, makes Mitt’s moral problems pale in comparison. No wonder he chose him.

From his youth an avid, devoted disciple of Russian atheist Ayn Rand, Ryan recently found it necessary to turn Judas on her, publicly repudiating her because he “discovered” she professed a philosophy, Objectivism, he finds objectionable. Does it really take a devoted disciple decades to discover their guru’s guiding philosophy, someone who made reading Rand mandatory for his staff and interns?
