Lyin' Ryan: Ran marathon in 4.01


We tried to ignore the Republican National Convention (politicians talking ... how interesting) but we couldn't ignore (a) poor Clint Eastwood's lousy speech, and (b) premium wine enthusiast Paul Ryan's lies.

Short version: He lied in his speech about five big things: the auto bailout, Medicare, the deficit, the stimulus and Romney.

And then he told the biggest whopper of all: He'd run a marathon in under three hours.

Guess what? He actually actually run a 4:01 in the Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth, Minnesota, in 1990.

Since running times in marathon's are publicly available, Ryan had to 'fess up to a 4 hour time.

We're doubting he'll admit to those other lies.
