We’ve talked a lot about how every Republican candidate becomes a love object for both the far right and establishment media — starbursts, shoulders you could land a 747 on, tanned (in a prairie, sun-chapped sort of way), can you smell the English leather on this guy. We’ve already heard quite a bit about Paul Ryan’s piercing blue eyes and hot P90X toned physique.
So I think the PaulRyanGosling twitter feed is one to follow.

Sarah Palin is now just somebody the GOP used to know.

The Tumblr is funny too.

Someone’s got Get Happy on this a.m. Stellar choice.

Hey girl, let me make you work until you’re 90.
Valdivia
Costello lyrics for the win, as usual.
I find Ryan to be so not hot. What a joke.
Comrade Mary
That’s a new Tumblr on that theme. The original Hey Girl Paul Ryan Tumblr was started by a conservative woman, and it shows. (Google it: no linky-love from me.)

Hey girl, let’s sprinkle a little bit of parmesan on that catfood and call it dinner.

@Valdivia: Okay, one quick one so I don’t hijack the thread: It turns out that the 25km trail between San Pedrillo and Sirena has several tough river crossings that can’t be timed for the tides in a single day’s hike–so I guess that’s why they closed it, heh. Now we’re looking at Los Patos-Sirena-La Leona. Thanks again!

Hey girl, look into my piercing blue eyes and repeat after me. You will be the next VP of the US.

@Comrade Jake:
Well played, my friend.

McCain carried Floridas over 65’s. But the problema is the under 55’s for 2012

The “Hey girl” start to all of those totally cracks me up. I hear it in a “Guy who thinks he’s hotter than he is” type voice. Hilarious and sad at the same time.

@Comrade Mary:
Hey, Girl! I actually went there. Hee, hee.

Apparently Ryan’s denouncing of Ayn Rand for St. Thomas Aquinas would have been approved of by Ayn Rand-

Hey, girl! I love women, Ayn Rand is my goddess.

He looks much younger than me, and I’m 43. Dang!
Love the “Hey girl” tweets though. LOL

And the by the time President Obama’s campaign is done remind the golden-years crowd of just exactly what the Ryan Plan would do the them and their benefits, the Repubs will have lost them, too….

This proves once and for all that if you put ( R ) next to a dude’s name, right-wing bloggers will find him hot.

My favorite line from today’s Daily Kos.
“Escuse me, Vice-President Biden, sir? Here’s one of Sen. Ryan’s socks. Give it a whiff. Now, sic ’em!
shortstop
@Jay C: I hope so. I hope they love themselves more than they hate us. Because so far I’ve found that tribal identity trumps self-interest with a lot of these people.

SNL has done this stuff for some time…males who are utterly deluded as to their actual attractiveness.
“The Continental”, for example.

There must be some psychological reason so many Republican males get starbursts over their candidates. The more cruel and selfish they are, the better they like them.

As I was saying, bodice-ripper material, and I don’t mean for the gals.

Hey Girl, they say once you go to Janesville, you never go back.

@Jay C:
Ryans Plan only affects the under 55’s. The probable escape clause, is the over 65’s will want to protect SS for children/grandchildren.

Hey girl, thanks for the sex. Please tell me you’re on coathangers, cuz the jimmy broke.

Ryan, of course, gets the perk of lifetime membership in the House gym (paid for by us), an 11.000 square foot facility designed to accommodate 2000 gym members.

Ryan’s eyes are too close together. And the whole eye is set at an angle, with the outside aimed down. If he were an anime character, he’d be a villain.
As to the “hotness” of the ticket, per some of the weekend’s threads, Obama/Biden beats them by an order of magnitude. Two plastic, Ken’s-best-friends dudes with mean little souls vs two fit guys with great smiles who care not only for their families but for people they don’t even know.
No contest.
And Ryan needs to buy suits that fit him. His shoulders are not as broad as he apparently thinks they are. He looks like a teen wearing Dad’s coat.

Hey Girl, once your grandma starves, you can have her house and invite me over.

@Villago Delenda Est: That was based on a real TV show. Sixty years ago, somebody thought that sleazeball would entice women to watch their TVs for half an hour a week.
Oh, and “Paul Ryan, hot”? On a purely observational (not personal) level, I can’t address that unless one could put a paper bag over his personality.

Hey girl, you don’t mind wearing this Ayn Rand mask while we get it on, do ya?
