On Wednesday, Senate Democrats successfully and predictably blocked what many conservatives described as Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) 56% ’s “Show Vote'â€on refugee admissions.
It has been called a show vote because the Ryan plan, even if the President signed it, would still allow the President to bring in an unlimited number of refugees from an unlimited number of countries.

Dribble? drivel? I hate posting when I am angry.
We can out-multiply these these sandturds.
One of my ancestors in the 1600’s had 21 children
We can out shoot them as well.

Is anyone going to primary Ryan????? Looks like we will be stuck with him.
That’s what I’m talking about!
What you said.
No actually I’m just sick to death of frauds calling themselves conservatives while electing liberals.
You have let it unbalance you. I’m sick of your negativity.
