Over the weekend, the head of the California Democratic Party, John Burton, said the following about Paul Ryan:
“They lie and they don’t care if people think they lie,” Burton told the San Francisco Chronicle, referring to Ryan's RNC speech. “Joseph Goebbels: It’s the ‘Big Lie,’ you keep repeating it.”
John Burton was supposed to be at the DNC but an unfortunate "pre-scheduled root canal" came up on his schedule so he will not be able to attend.
Today, Pat Lehman, the head of the Kansas Democratic delegates, said the following about Paul Ryan:
She said education is the only route most Americans can use to improve their lives and “the thought of having our public education system basically devastated, I’m really worried about that.”
Lehman said her biggest concern about the election itself is voter-identification laws that Republicans have pushed through in a number of states, including Kansas.
She said the purpose is to suppress the vote, especially among Democratic-leaning constituencies such as elderly voters. And she scorned the Republicans’ contention that the laws are designed to combat voter fraud.
“It’s like Hitler said, if you’re going to tell a lie, tell a big lie, and if you tell it often enough and say it in a loud enough voice, some people are going to believe you,” Lehman said.
