Thanks bushwon. I've been following Mr. Ryan for a few years now. I have also been trying to trying to make more people aware of him.

In 2005 after his reelection as president, Bush offered the top job of budget director to Ryan but Ryan turned it down to stay in Congress. Two years later he became the top Republican on the House Budget committee, chosen over 12 more senior Republicans in the group.

Thanks for the post and the link! I, too have followed him, but was unaware that he had turned down budget director position—given the sad series of events of 2006 going forward, it was a good move on his part tho the country might have fared better had he served.
