.....“I talk about this in the book,” Ryan told Watchdog Radio Monday. “About very progressive policies. About the outcomes they produce, and how they bankrupt governments.”.....

And the illegals “out of the shadows” and on a “pathway to citizenship” will oppose these progressive policies, right Paul?

Geez, I don’t know Paul - why don’t we scroo the military on their pensions again? Maybe you and Murray can have a special ‘meeting of the minds’ to work out the details.

Who cares about them anyway? Our soldiers only risk life and limb for our country, right?

"It is no longer a question of how much government Americans want. The only question is how much government Americanscan afford.

I think this pretty much sums up why the GOPe hates its base. It is clear he thinks Republicans can run a better socialist economy than the Democrats.

So Ryan has been trying to make a deal with the devil to permanently open up the border. We are rapidly transforming into a socialist fascist police state. The GOPe (Ryan, Boner etc.) are compromised by the NSA/surveillance state and some are willing co-conspirators assisting the Dims efforts in destroying the nation.
All Ryan offers us is lip service and the people paying attention are not buying it.

Does he mean big government as in the few thousand dollars per year he tried to wrestle away from Veterans’ widows?

He is the worst of the worst.

Military wives sign a contract by choice, one which they and their sponsor pay into monthly, again, if they opt in, to get paid if their sponsor dies.

When a military member or a retiree dies, all salary or retirement stops as soon as the doctor signs the death certificate. If a military member dies before the spouse, that money is cut off from her.

In planning finances, military families consider this soberly. They accept it, and plan for it. The military has the program which they can plan on if they want to, where when these military members decide to count on this for extra or total income, they can.

It is an agreement.

Paul Ryan, in a little-publicized deal cutting off promised retirement pay, had cutting this money off as well.

Not for the future, not just for the future, that is, but pulling back on already agreed to, signed for, paid-into contracts, just take money away from veterans’ widows.

Are these women, who supported the country, sacrificed their husbands’ presence for the service, a taxing job, are they who he means by big government? The tens of thousands he’d have given to the growing 18trillion debt from these witches?

So Ryan wants to bring in more immigrants and provide amnesty to the lawbreakers already here. Immigrants, legal and illegal, use welfare to a greater extent than the native born. And immigrants support Big Government with more services.

Soon?

Here's an idea, Paul, let's import a few million more illegals and give them amnesty so they can get benefits before the benefits dry up.

America passed the “tipping point” with the election of Barack H. “(Ebola)” Obama. How far the country will fall is not known yet.

We need to have a clarifying election in this country, where we give the people of this country a very clear choice,

we had such an election, two in fact, Obama won both.

It is no longer a question of how much government Americans want. The only question is how much government Americanscan afford.

What an arrogant low-IQ POS. What a repulsive statement.

It doesn't matter What or How much government people want. The government MUST operate strictly within Constitutional bounds.

I would submit that the tipping point has already passed, and that 2012 was all the evidence needed.

There are now more voters for freebies than there are voters to pay for them. As the baby boomers retire and the workforce continues to shrink this will do nothing but accelerate. The looters simply outnumber the producers. This cannot be fixed apart from recovering whatever is left after the crash and starting over.
