VIDEO: CHRIS MATTHEWS BLAMES RIGHT FOR GREECE

Let's see, within the last two years, Chris Matthews has twice declared that Obama sends a thrill up his leg; he's twice referred to Saul Alinsky in glowing terms, once calling him a hero; once he said that it was his job to make sure Obama's was a "successful presidency". As crazy as all of those claims are, one can say Matthews was at least being honest and revealed his true feelings - both physically and emotionally.

If you can believe it, Matthews delivers a bald-faced lie in this clip when he tells Jim Cramer that Spain, Portugal, and Greece are being run by "right-wing" governments.

When socialism fails, blame those who told you it would. Cramer is almost as bad for not correcting Matthews, who is sunken to a new low - and you didn't think it was possible.

VIDEO: REP. PAUL RYAN ON GREECE / ECONOMICS

While the countries all across Europe are coming face to face with an economic black hole, the Barack Obama administration seems intent on hitching America's economic future onto their wagon. Enter conservative up and comer, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) who has as good a grasp on economic principles as anyone - a reality that may catapult him into a field of future presidential candidates.

Ryan is young but his economic expertise may more than compensate for any experience concerns the former may illicit. Perhaps no one in congress may be able to more clearly enunciate the differences between capitalism and socialism which is always doomed to fail, whether viewed through a societal or economic lens.

Can you say, Ryan 2012? Yes, it's a stretch but in light of where we're headed economically, he may be the best possible candidate when the time comes.
