<span style="color: #000099">In his convention speech in Tampa, Ryan said: ‘When he [Obama] talked about change, many people liked the sound of it, especially in Janesville, where we were about to lose a major factory. A lot of guys I went to high school with worked at that GM plant.
‘Right there at that plant, candidate Obama said: “I believe that if our government is there to support you, this plant will be here for another hundred years”. That’s what he said in 2008. Well, as it turned out, that plant didn’t last another year. It is locked up and empty to this day.’
<span style='font-size: 14pt'>He's backpedaling now. He's changing his tune.</span>
"What they are trying to suggest is that I said Barack Obama was responsible for the plant shutdown in Janesville,’ Ryan told NBC. ‘That is not what I was saying; read the speech. What I was saying is the president ought to be held to account for his broken promises. After the plant was shut down, he said he would lead efforts to restore the plant. It’s still idle"
Uh, with the GOP openly declaring that they were doing NOTHING but making sure Obama is a 1-term President, would there have been a snowball's chance in hell of getting anything done? I highly doubt it. I do have one question though. If Ryan agrees with the statement Obama made about "if our government is there to support you, this plant will be here for another hundred years" and he should have done something (after the fact), where's the anger and ire towards the President that was in office at that time? You know, the one that COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING?</span>
