Paul Ryan is a guy, who anyone would be proud to claim as a son. Remarkable young man.

“Somebody please tell him to quit clearing his throat....”

Perhaps you should listen to his words and stop criticizing.
You never had a problem with your throat? Then again, you probably never campaigned and gave speeches everyday.

He’s awesome!

hee hee...I was once a good friend of the man who wrote that song. Along with Elvis’s hit “I Can’t Help Falling in Love With You”.

Disney used the song in the Lion King without attribution OR permission.
