re: #47 Bubblehead II

My point is, that he did not ask for the money himself. The companies that submitted the paperwork for the grants did.

Very flimsy excuse. Of course, Ryan didn’t ask for the money himself - that’s not how stimulus grants worked. He asked for the money on behalf of the state of Wisconsin, after the agencies filed their requests.

That’s what ALL state officials did, who urged the DOE and other federal agencies to send them stimulus funds. When Ryan is asked if he wrote letters seeking stimulus money, it’s simply a lie to say “no.” He wrote letters, seeking stimulus money for his constituents, and denied it.
