SHARE Paul Ryan: ‘I don’t have a racist bone in my body’

House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan wants to move on and get past the name calling after his “inarticulate” comments on inner city poverty.

Congressional Black Caucus leader Barbara Lee has called his comments a “thinly veiled racial attack,” but Ryan did an interview with Bill O’Reilly on Fox News, saying he just wants to “get beyond throwing baseless charges at people.”

And he’s like everyone else to know one more thing.

“She knows that I don’t have a racist bone in my body,” Ryan said.
