"The Most Dishonest Convention Speech ... Ever?"

"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."

Jonathan Chait at New York writes that Ryan's "deep dishonesty largely reflects the fundamental gap between the radicalism of his agenda and his need for public acceptance."

Postscript:
NPR provides transcripts of Paul Ryan's and Mitt Romney's speeches at the convention.
