(Really?!?!? Paul Ryan's abs are all you can talk about regarding the man who helped to bring the budget crisis/entitlement reform discussion to the forefront? It's no wonder I need to go take some Pepto. Ugh.)
Great article, Maressa. @gem092011-she gave Paul Ryan a compliment. Jeez, will nothing make you conservatives happy? :-D
