Lawsuit threat and nondisclosure agreement. They might have even paid Chris off to keep quiet.
Standard practice on the campaign trail.

This was a good thread and at least somewhat climbing related.
Perhaps its deletion (even if rectified) should be a reminder not to get too invested in a website controlled by one idiosyncratic guy who is not terribly concerned whether any user or group of users approves of what he does.

Probably a fabricated lie against Ryan and the source was threatened with libel legal action. Or worse.
Calling Paul Ryan a callous liar is pretty weak compared Biden and Obama.

Not sure I follow you on that Steve. Are you saying that the claim that Ryan did 40 (or so) 14,000-foot climbs in Colorado was a fabrication? Well, we all agree with that. But since the source of that claim was Ryan himself, I doubt that's what you mean.
But I'm not sure what you do mean. What is it that you're saying was a fabricated lie against Mr. Ryan? And who threatened whom with legal action? As to the "Or worse," you've really got me confused. Are you implying that someone (The GOP?) threatened CMac with something worse than a lawsuit? As in they were going to send a couple of guys around to break a few bones?
Not trying to be argumentative here, it's just that I really don't understand your post.

What is the original context of Ryan's statement. I haven't even heard it and I follow this sh#t pretty closely.
I think somebody took him out of context and slandered him.

"I think somebody took him out of context and slandered him."
Why is you guys never seem to whine like this when the slander is aimed at a Democrat?
Not just a Democrat...but someone who actually served his own country, who gets swiftboated by the campaign of a college-cokehead, draft deferring chickenhawk?

Apogee is what Ryan said untrue? And how many peaks he has summited seems to be politically irrelevant. How does he prove that? He never can.
But 4 dead Americans in Benghazi? Fast and Furious? 22 dead SEALS in Afghanistan? That seems more important. No?

Neitzsche had nothing to do with the Middle East.
“I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you.”
The point is Romney and Ryan both are notorious liars who want to run the country.
But 4 dead Americans in Benghazi? Fast and Furious? 22 dead SEALS in Afghanistan?
Why do you focus on these deaths? Aren't there a whole lot of others?

Whats sad is that Rick went through and explained everything, even going back and getting Ryan's words and you can't be bothered to read it, instead you just...think... you know the answer.
Can you explain the "under 3 hours" comment on the marathon. I bet you can't. But I also bet you have never ran long distance so wouldn't understand the significance.

Romney/Ryan do not have a record of unfulfilled promises. Do they?
You want to forget Obama's dreams and promises that are unfulfilled? Kinda disingenuous, bro.

These are the ones Obama clearly has lied about and covered up. DEAD AMERICANS!

After the last episode in the 1920's when the republican party stymied the government's duty to "regulate", it took nearly ten years for the economy to turn around. Obama has bit the bullet to keep us out of another Hooverian disaster by spending as needed to do it. You can fault him if you would rather that the US had gone out of the car business so that your investments might have profited more. On the other hand in a depression you might have ended up making no studio equipment at all and have been out of work.
We all need to be aware of what history can tell us.
I had looked at the history and had bet that there would be a W. disaster. No biggie to see that one coming.
