(CNSNews.com) – Asked to discuss his foreign policy experience, Rep. Paul Ryan – now Mitt Romney’s running mate – said he has more experience in that area than President Obama did when he became president:

“Well, most of the traveling I’ve done throughout my 14 years in Congress has been to the Middle East,” Ryan told Sean Hannity — in response to a question — on Hannity’s television program Tuesday night. “You know, I’ve had to both send men and women to war on more than one occasion. I’ve been to those funerals.

“I’ve talked to the widows and the wives and the parents. I’ve gone to Afghanistan and Iraq to meet with our troops, to learn from them. Obviously, I have a lot more experience than Barack Obama did when he became president.”

 

Ryan said Obama is undermining American leadership: “He’s rejected the peace-through-strength doctrine. He’s outsourcing our foreign policy decision making to the U.N. — so that countries like Russia can exercise their veto power over us. What it is doing is it’s giving our allies a loss of faith in American leadership.”

    Ryan is not only Husseins intellectual or moral superior, Ryan is much better looking and genuinely “nice” unlike the nasty piece of work elected and propped by useful idiots.

    I like Ryan, but saying he has more experience than O did is like saying he’s better at long division than Joe Biden.

    Ronald McDonald has a lot more experience than obama in job creation, the economy, and just about everything else.
    And yes, I would vote for Ronald McDonald if he were the only one running against obama the clown on the ballot.

    Heck these schoolkids you see all over the news lately with lemonade stands have more experience with capitalism then Obama.

    Its the reason government agencies keep shutting them down, its an embarassment to the president.

    Its the same reason Barack will never appear on the tv show “Are you smarter then a 5th grader”……… he knows the answer.

    I tried to make my lefty friends understand this four years ago… if Obama walked into a McDonald’s and applied for anything other than bottom-rung burger-flipper, he’d be turned away for want of experience.

    Ryan’s little finger contains more leadership than Obungle’s empty skull. Those 400+ “Present” votes cast during Barry’s brief stint in Illinois legislature should have been a HUGE red flag to anyone paying attention. The cowering, blithering idiot dithered again on making call to nail OBL.

    @Twellsy- No holding back, not this time. Ryan should shred Biden. Republicans holding back gave us the piece of shit currently tearing down the country with abandon.
