DOWD: Ryan-"just a fresh face on a Taliban creed"

[kpete]

MoDo:

Paul Ryan, who teamed up with Akin in the House to sponsor harsh
anti-abortion bills, may look young and hip and new generation, with his
iPod full of heavy metal jams and his cute kids. But he’s just a fresh
face on a Taliban creed — the evermore antediluvian, anti-women, anti-immigrant, anti-gay conservative core. Amiable in khakis and polo
shirts, Ryan is the perfect modern leader to rally medieval Republicans
who believe that Adam and Eve cavorted with dinosaurs.
