Arguably the big star of yesterday's 7 1/2 hour long health care summit was Congressman Paul Ryan, In a feisty speech, Rep. Paul Ryan (R, WI) described the Democratic bill as a "ponzi scheme" full of accounting "gimmicks and smoke and mirrors" and explained why the official CBO projection was totally wrong. He explained that CBO does an excellent job given the parameters under they are directed to use, but those parameters are often not very realistic.

Washington Post columnist Chris Cillizza praised Ryan and said it was clear that the president regards Ryan as, “a serious thinker and adversary, while his GOP colleagues often deferred to him.”

I was so proud of our guys yesterday. Ryan, Alexander, Kyle, Boehner and even McCain. They were prepared, eloquent, respectful and precise. Obama and the Dems were disorganized, hostile, arrogant and just downright lost the encounter. I think our guys saw this as a real battle in the long war to Take our Country Back and saw the seriousness of the debate. I for one say Good Job Guys! You did us proud! Keep up the Good Fight. This one is for keeps against the Marxist Mole.
