Obama's Imaginary Recovery: Paul Ryan speaking today - UPDATE

via AP

Paul Ryan today:
There's this guy I've known for a number of years, I'm going to be talking to him in mid-October. His name's Joe Biden. You might have heard of him.

He just said that the middle class is coming back. We've got 23 million people out of work, struggling to find work today. Unemployment has been above 8% for 42 months and the real unemployment rate's more like 15%. He said last summer was going to be the summer of recovery. It's a summer later and it's still worse. They said that the private sector is doing just fine. We need more government. This is President Obama's imaginary recovery. It's not here. We have a mountain of uncertainty that is plaguing small businesses and we have a person in Mitt Romney who knows through experience, the challenges that businesses face, how job creation works, that the engine of opportunity, the nucleus of our economy is not the government but the successful small businesses, the entrepreneurs, the people of this country. That's what makes the American dream spread and grow for everybody.
Not to be Nit-picky, but this is summer three of "recovery summer" and it's a bad one.

UPDATE:
I missed this. Paul got upstaged IN A GOOD WAY!! Joe the Plumber, move over! My only worry is that Chris McMurry will be publicly castigated by the old media, much like Joe the Plumber.
