Well, with the budget Ryan got on board with and passed, it fully funds what Obama asked for in all of the following areas (and probably more):
Obama Care
Planned Parenthood
Syrian Refugees
New Foreign work Visas
That right there says it all IMHO.
In terms of this first round with Paul Ryan, sorry to say it...but there it is. Despite Ryan’s high words...
“Old Speaker of the House Boehner...meet the new Speaker of the House, Ryan. They are acting the same.”
Instead of the Mexicans paying for it like Trump suggests, I’ll bet WE, the people paid a goodly portion. Its good to be in government.
Dude has never had a job has he? How’s he afford that?
“I wonder if Ryan will even be re-elected next year”
Hopefully the dems have a strong candidate to erase this puke.
Sad times when you are looking for the rat to bail you out!
Wow!
Public servants make a sh!t ton of money apparently.
Do those fools really believe a little fence will shut out the storms of revolution when SHTF?
Remember all the talk about what a smart and hard-line budget whiz Ryan was?
Maybe he was.....
“House of Representatives
Members of the United States House of Representative earned an annual salary of $174,000 in 2009 and 2010. In 2008, they earned $169,300.
Senators
The salaries of senators are identical those of members of the House of Representatives. The last year in which senators and members of the House of Representatives did not have the same salary was 1991, when members of the House earned $125,100 per year and senators made $101,900.
Exceptions
Three members of both the Senate and the House of Representative earn more than the rest of their colleagues. A salary of $193,400 per year is paid to those senators and representatives who serve as the Senate majority and minority leaders, the majority and minority leaders of the House of Representatives, and as the president pro tempore of the Senate. The speaker of the House of Representatives is the highest-paid member of Congress, with an annual salary of $223,500.”
The salaries are nothing, really. The real money is in, ahem, “contributions” from grateful constituents ... like the US Chamber of Commerce, the SEIU, La Raza, etc.
Nice work if you can get it. If you can’t, just vote and then go **** yourself.
PS Oh yeah. Back in 1986 the critters made their own pay raises automatic so they didn’t have to undergo the unseemly spectacle of voting pay raises for themselves.
Time for the pitch forks and torches.
Looks like a good pen to put a few hundred migrants in.
““I wonder if Ryan will even be re-elected next year—
Well, I’ve heard it said that it’s not necessary to be a member of congress to be Speaker. Who knows, not many seemed interested in the job the last go around. Ryan could be the first non-congress Speaker :)
That’s actually a perfect analogy.
We need our own protestors screaming at Paul Ryan’s house to “TEAR DOWN THAT WALL”. He should be forced to live as average citizens do.
Get 20 truckers and some tow chains and “tear down his wall”.....
Not to worry. Ryan is already auditioning for his future two million dollars per year lobbying gig in Washington DC In fact I'll bet that when he votes he takes into account how his future employers will like his vote
He has to protect himself from the riffraff who vote for Big Government.
Exactly! He's a member of the Royal Class! We commoners should be honored by this symbol of protection! We're a nation of men, not laws!
(gag)
As suspected...Ryan is just another infiltrator...And a very dark one.
This bearded MF needs to be taken out.
Either in the Primary or if he weasels his way through , in the GENERAL!.
That would mean a campaign among the RIGHT to vote for his Democrat opponent, as Ryan represents just one district and is EXPENDABLE.
The take away from this treacherous action by this degenerate prick is that he just committed POLITICAL SUICIDE.
RYAN RAUS!!!!!!!!!!
