Meet Paul Ryan (R- Koch Brothers)

Paul Ryan's alleged fiscal responsibility: Voting for unending wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, for the Wall Street bailout, and for Medicare Part D, the taxpayer giveaway to prescription drug companies that prohibits the federal government from negotiating drug prices and was the single cause of 14 congressional aides leaving their jobs for positions in the drug and medical industries. All this while simultaneously voting for the passage, and then re-passage, of the Bush tax cuts. If we had a functioning news media in this country, this topic of the false advertising of Candidate Ryan would be one they could incorporate for discussion.

If you've been watching a lot of the Olympics on TV, tell me-- does NBC ever run any promos for "Community," "30 Rock," or "Parks & Rec"? That's what I thought.

Quote of the day: Dave Barry, "It turns out that athletes pee in the Olympic swimming pool. Seriously. Swimmer Ryan Lochte revealed this in a radio interview with famous personality Ryan Seacrest, saying, 'I think there’s just something about getting into chlorine water that you just automatically go.' Then Lochte’s teammate Michael Phelps revealed that he sometimes pees in the pool. Then another U.S. team member, Chris Cantwell, revealed that he, too, pees in the Olympic pool. This was especially disturbing, because Chris is a shot-putter. No, that last one was a joke, and I hope Chris does not take offense because he is a silo-sized individual who could crush my skull like a ping-pong ball using only his thumb and forefinger."

Hey Reese you freakin idiot. Mr. Moeller was merely quoting Dave Berry. Dave is the one you should be addressing. But yes, he goes by Christian, not Chris.
