Why does Paul Ryan blame Obama for a GM plant closing in Janesville Wis., saying it closed on Obama's watch?

From Fox News: Ryan’s speech was an apparent attempt to set the world record for the greatest number of blatant lies and misrepresentations slipped into a single political speech. Fact: While Ryan tried to pin the downgrade of the United States’ credit rating on spending under President Obama, the credit rating was actually downgraded because Republicans threatened not to raise the debt ceiling. Fact: While Ryan blamed President Obama for the shut down of a GM plant in Janesville, Wisconsin, the plant was actually closed under President George W.

Bush. Ryan actually asked for federal spending to save the plant, while Romney has criticized the auto industry bailout that President Obama ultimately enacted to prevent other plants from closing. Fact: Though Ryan insisted that President Obama wants to give all the credit for private sector success to government, that isn't what the president said.

Period. Fact: Though Paul Ryan accused President Obama of taking $716 billion out of Medicare, the fact is that that amount was savings in Medicare reimbursement rates (which, incidentally, save Medicare recipients out-of-pocket costs, too) and Ryan himself embraced these savings in his budget plan. He also forgot to mention that he requested stimulus funds in his back yard.

He also forgot to mention that his mother took a PUBLIC bus to go to a STATE school when his family ran into adversity when his dad passed away. He was up there criticizing the president for Medicare policies that are also in his own proposals for Medicare. The novel thing about Ryan’s plan for Medicare is a plan to privatize it.

So you don’t get guaranteed Medicare any more. You get a coupon. You get a voucher.

And then you buy private insurance – if you can find any insurance company that will take you. http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2012/08/3...

No Obama DID promise to keep the plant open, Obama LIED and so did the overweight loud mouth Eddy Shultz.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
