    Now I see why Romney picked him. Romney sure loves flip floppers and hypocrites.

    A lie is a mistake. The article reads like he looked into it, and found out he did.

    At best, the guy has his signature on 5 letters to the federal government asking for millions of dollars that he never bothers to read.

    he said he looked into it. how can you forget about writing 5 letters to two different departments? he only admitted that he lied after boston globe mentioned the 5 letters

    I missed that he said he did not in 2010 (presumably when he wrote the letters?) which would be very different than 2012 (which you might forget something from that long ago).

    You're reaching, but I don't think you have a long enough wingspan.

    This is what happens when you know what's best for the country but are forced to oppose it for political purposes. Or maybe he just "misremembered"...

    "In a 2010 interview and again on Thursday, Ryan indignantly declared that he'd never do such a thing"

    Yes, that is what I implied by saying I missed that he denied it in 2010.
