Who Is Paul Ryan?

Be afraid: Be very afraid. Paul Ryan, an acolyte of Ayn Rand who once stated that he made his staffers read Atlas Shrugged, is a dangerous man. In Batocchio's article at Vagabond Scholar, But Paul Ryan Seems Like Such a Nice Fellow, he cites an article in New York magazine by Jonathan Chait entitled The Legendary Paul Ryan. Batocchio says:

I wanted to link Jonathan Chait's piece "The Legendary Paul Ryan" again, because it's one of the best introductions to Ryan, especially for people who aren't political junkies.

It's a long article, but it's an easy, entertaining read.
