Ryan bullies charity into fake photo op

Look - it's much easier to scrub clean pots and pans, than it is to clean dirty ones. You liberals are so funny. Why clean a dirty pot when you could start out with a clean one?

The fact is- this "soup kitchen" just did exactly what they say it didn't want to do. If I was donating money to this place, you can bet that my donations would stop after hearing the whining and complaining going on here. Does anyone think this is non-partisan? Bullcrap.

Who cares if Ryan wants to clean a clean pot- maybe they were not as clean as they say- maybe they were a danger to the poor people with their half-ass cleaning procedures.

Ryan was just preventing another e coli outbreak by these lazy soup kitchen "non-partisans".

If Ryan was doing anything wrong here- these soup kitchen nazi's just did the same thing.

So in your book, having a rule about not allowing ANY political statements or photo-ops at your soup kitchen is partisan? gotcha.

Colbert was funny: "Romney visited the soup kitchen too. That's a special kitchen in his house that makes only soup."

It certainly was nothing more than a photo op, but it looks like Ryan did clean dirty dishes...

LYNCHBURG, VA -- Amid questions and criticisms related to Paul Ryan’s visit this weekend to an Ohio soup kitchen, the charity’s president said the Republican vice presidential candidate did, in fact, scrub dirty dishes though his visit wasn’t officially sanctioned.

Here's both Jon Stewart and Stephan Colbert on Ryan's soup kitchen visit:

Thanks Pine, sounds like an obvious photo-op to highlight charities and volunteers. Ho Hum. Major outrage and national issue. Guess Dog will have to change the title of this thread now. LOL

Stewart: It is comedy gold, who cares about the truthiness!

So they saved dirty dishes for him so he could come in after the place closed and do a photo op of him washing dishes. Gotcha.

Oh, and Stewart did mention the actual dirty dishes part in his monologue.

Looks to me like he cleaned CLEAN pans.. But, hey, anything for a photo-op, right? Including forcing miners to miss a day of paid-work, with a "mandatory" appearance for a photo-op for a candidate they may, or may not, have been for.

Got it....
