Why can't liberals honestly lay out Paul Ryan's ideas, and then explain why they think Obama's ideas are better?

Go ahead and defend that, Spence...
Most papers have both news and personality driven opinion. Dowd is an opinion columnist. She's their bomb thrower. Her comment was clearly meant to highlight the irony of Ryan's positions.

I'm glad you're reading Dowd but I'd also encourage you to think in the process.
