"“ObamaCare is an entitlement, they (budget and Obamacare) are not related,” he said. "

Another Sell Out!

The Democrats want a shutdown to take the focus off Obamacare. Watch for them to try something to force a shutdown and then they and their media friends blame the Republicans.

Yeah, he’s working with Patty Murray to eliminate the sequester cuts. The democrats are desperate to not have that sequester. Why?? Because it actually cuts spending and they want to raise taxes.

With the sequester cuts, the budget is on the way to balance itself. But with a balanced budget, there can be no fear-mongering, no debt-ceiling increases, etc. So they want to keep the deficits, the debt and thus American enslavement to its creditors, going.

The GOP House gave us the shutdown that was demanded of then by talk radio and lo and behold, Obamacare stayed funded during the shutdown anyway.

So a major fail.

BTW :Obamacare bad news wasnt reported till the shutdown ended as it was the major crisis story, then after that all hell broke loose.
Let dems continue to drown.

Avoid a shutdown is not bad strategy, but taking options off the table so early has constantly plagued this ‘leadership’ team. What a bunch of failures.

Sure, let them know we have absolutely no leverage before the negotiations even start.

If he thinks that the Democrats will accept a CR at current levels, he is dead wrong. This is their opportunity to change the story line away from Obamacare back to the big bad GOP shutting down the government meme.

They know shutdowns hurts the GOP, so they will seek higher expenditures, they will seek anything they want only to have the GOP say no, and they will let it shut down, blaming the GOP. And get away with it.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, again.

Why doesn’t anyone make a point that if there were a budget... that is, if the Obama administration was doing it’s job, there would be no need for CRs or the threat of a shutdown?

Ryan always had the stink of the GOPe surrounding him, even as he presented himself as a “fresh thinker.” He and Cantor tried to present themselves as “young guns” but in reality they were nothing more than fresh faces hinding typical GOP deceit.

Paul Ryan is as exciting as melba toast.

If the man gets bitch-slapped by Joe Biden, he isn’t worthy of consideration for a national ticket.

Man oh man, if Ryan had a smart PR plan - he could have positioned this in such a way that:

"the Republicans tried to stop the disaster known as ObamaCare and instead, the Democrats and this President decided to shut the government down rather than save the American people the problems that they are now experiencing with their health care coverage. Now that there is evidence that this administration lied about the roll out and the Republican's have been proven 100% correct, we will work to ensure the American public is not fooled again by this administration and their enablers in the media.

Why the hell wouldnt they take advantage of the positive situation they find themselves in?

Nope. They are gonna let this slide. Obama is imploding over his health care mess, and they are gonna do nothing to get in the way or allow him to change the subject.

Smart politics, though it will leave us several trillions of dollars further in debt.

This man is no different than harry reid, nancy piglosi or obama himself. He is a big government progressive that loves mexicans and wants illegals to be made citizens and he wants to financially bleed the working people of this country to death.

What a wimp Ryan turned out to be, once with so much promise, he’s just another RINO.

Yeah, and why in the hell don’t they defend themselves? Why don’t they shoot back that it’s up to the president, that he was the one that shut the government down last time?

These current republicans know how to really irk me, and Paul is one of the one’s I prefer!
