Paul Ryan was never anything more than John Boehner lite. We knew it when he was appointed. I have planned to change my voter registration in Florida to No Party Affiliation but I'm waiting for the Senate primary so I can vote against my RINO GOPe congressman David Jolly. He epitomizes a typical RINO. It didn't take him long to adapt to Washington politics. I want him gone. I will have Charlie Crist to look forward to as my new Congressman (BARF).

GOP leaders all seem to believe they provide their own air to breathe, blood for their hearts to pump, and the light to power their ability to see.

Little gods they are, they believe.

Don’t stand near them.

Washington’s Republicans are intent on political suicide.

I have repeatedly asserted that the GOPe’s sole concern is in keeping congress, that the White House run is intended as a dog and pony show. That they don't want to win the White House, as history has shown that voters will eject the winning party from congress. That for our own self defense, we do this time and time again, to protect ourselves from our very government.

More importantly, they are also protecting all their family, lovers and friends who are lodged in many government and lobbyist positions with little to no qualifications other than their relationship to the Speaker or another elected official.

I understand fighting for your family. I'm fighting for mine, fighting against the parasitic class who has assumed that my family's future is there to farm for their own personal gain. That they are entitled to not just a portion of my wages, but of my future as well.

As they have created a social disaster among the people with free health care, free phones, nearly free cable, nearly free internet, free food, free money, free rent, they live the large life off of the backs of the people. They give themselves lifetime retirements, not for decades of hard work, but merely for winning popularity contests. They don't ‘retire’, they fail to be reelected and win a jackpot of public money in the process.

Speaker Ryan, with all due respect that I give to every parasite, I have to hope that focus comes to you and yours, as once again, rather than sensing the winds of the electorate, you double downed on stupid.

My suggestion? Do the math. You've written checks that no economy can ever sustain. Then it might be time to call it a night.

I’m as mad as hell..... For the Trump supporters that don’t have good, conservative representatives, this may be a plan. There are, however, a few, a very few folks that we really need to keep in play. My rep will get my donations and vote; he has proven his worth to me. We are going to need a few good men. Tom Massie, Kentucky, is one.

CHAPTER VI. SORROWS OF TEUFELSDROCKH.

We have long felt that, with a man like our Professor, matters must often be expected to take a course of their own; that in so multiplex, intricate a nature, there might be channels, both for admitting and emitting, such as the Psychologist had seldom noted; in short, that on no grand occasion and convulsion, neither in the joy-storm nor in the woe-storm could you predict his demeanor.

To our less philosophical readers, for example, it is now clear that the so passionate Teufelsdrockh precipitated through "a shivered Universe" in this extraordinary way, has only one of three things which he can next do: Establish himself in Bedlam; begin writing Satanic Poetry; or...

...or he, Biggus Priebus, and the other RINOs could pull their collective L.I.F.E.R. heads out their arses and help the rest of us reform the Republic back towards its specified purpose: 

 

TO SECURE THESE RIGHTS. 

 

 "that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain --

that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom --

and that government of the people,

by the people,

for the people,

 shall not perish from the earth."

Sounds like a postcard/sticky note campaign.

“But there is no point in paying the servant who doesn’t serve you. There is no point in paying the servant who thinks he is your master. And if the Republican bosses keeping giving the finger to the candidate of the people, it’s time to kick those Republican bosses right square in the political crotch.”

Every election these establishment Uniparty turds all of the sudden pretend to become solid conservatives, only to do an about face upon getting re-elected, and returning to the vomit of their globalist agenda, with America and her citizens getting tossed to the curb. Trump has forced them to show their true colors, and they are not red, white, and blue.

Well written piece. Thanks for posting.

EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Thursday, January 10, 1963

Mr. HERLONG. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Patricia Nordman of De Land, Fla., is an ardent and articulate opponent of communism, and until recently published the De Land Courier, which she dedicated to the purpose of alerting the public to the dangers of communism in America.

At Mrs. Nordman’s request, I include in the RECORD, under unanimous consent, the following “Current Communist Goals,” which she identifies as an excerpt from “The Naked Communist,” by Cleon Skousen:

CURRENT COMMUNIST GOALS:

15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

When the people rise up and try to take control back from the political parties, that is when you see their true colors. They are protecting their system from you.

Trump voters can do that by pledging to vote for just one Republican in November. Go into the voting booth, vote for Trump for president, and walk out without casting a vote for any other candidate. If the GOP wants to go it alone, let it.

This is a GREAT IDEA! Pass this around FRiends! Make it go viral!

Patriotic Americans have repeatedly turned to and empowered the Republican Party, and not gotten a damn thing for it. Trump voters put Mitch McConnell in power and Trump voters put Paul Ryan in power and things only got worse.

We handed John Boehner the House of Representatives on a silver platter and the high point of his career was some gag video with Obama.

Every two years it becomes depressingly more clear that the Republican Party’s lust for establishment security renders it no alternative to the anti-American progressive feces the Democrats are smearing across our flag and Constitution.

WELL SAID!!!!!!!!!

After Reagan and Gingrich, successive GOP “Leaders” have been TROLLS.

Because Trump voters aren’t ready to support the Republican Party.

Yep.

"I HAVE SWORN UPON THE ALTAR OF GOD ETERNAL HOSTILITY

TO EVERY FORM OF TYRANNY OVER THE MIND OF MAN"

Are you sorry when the lights begin to fade
Are you sorry for the promises you made
for the burden of the ones who had to fall
When you didn't see the writing on the wall

It was forty years ago and I was young
and the jungle not the desert heard the guns
Someone said they had a secret plan
and the rest of us were told to understand

Well I don't want this, no I don't want this
I have had enough no more...

The GOPe just doesn’t get it. Maybe it’ll sink in but I doubt it.
Trump is really exposing the gap between us the people who ultimately do hold the power by our votes, and the status quo, The GOPe and DEMe two sides of the same coin.

Want to get rid of Paul Ryan?

Support his challenger Paul Nehlen:

http://www.paulnehlen.com/

“Like many people in this district, I’ve had the opportunity to meet Paul Ryan personally. He’s shaken my hand. He’s looked me in the eye. He’s made promises to me and many others about policies he would and would not support on behalf of this district. We’ve all watched as he’s broken every single one of those promises.

“I’m a manufacturing guy and an inventor. I started my working life right on the factory floor and worked my way up to run manufacturing companies. That’s part of what I love about Wisconsin’s 1st District and one of the chief reasons why—of all the places I could have chosen to settle—I chose to be here. The southeast corner of Wisconsin has deep roots in manufacturing and industry.

“So, when Paul Ryan began pushing a massive, job-killing international “trade” deal known as the Trade Promotion Authority and Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPA/TPP), it was the final straw for me. I know what TPA/TPP will do to this district. It sells out American workers. It sells out American business and industry. It will kill the economy in this district, never mind the rest of the nation.

“Why would Paul Ryan do such a thing?

“I asked myself that question again and again, trying to understand. I couldn’t believe he would be so reckless. I couldn’t believe he would sell out his own district in that way.

“And then I started looking at public records…and it all began to make sense.

“Approximately 83 percent of Paul Ryan’s campaign funding comes from outside of Wisconsin’s 1st District. And of that 83 percent, 65 percent of his funding comes straight from Washington, D.C. and Alexandria, Virginia.

“Paul Ryan isn’t representing our district. He’s representing the big businesses and big banks that pour money into his campaign coffers. It’s their agendas he’s carrying forward with his votes in Congress…not ours.”

If the House and Senate went Democrat, I believe Trump would still get the job done.

As highbrow Republicans turn away

Let me suggest a better, more accurate term than "highbrow" for the type: "Dwiors" "Dolts With Illusions Of Relevance."

The functional intelligence of the type has nothing to do with their IQ or the height of their brows. But anyone who is too dysfunctional to realize that putting short term business interests or leftwing theory ahead of the survival of your nation or civilization is stupid, has clearly demonstrated their own functional stupidity.

Let’s keep those postcards flowing... to Paul Ryan (and our local reps and senators)... Every Monday until Ryan and all the others are “ready” to support Trump.

It’s not over until Trump is actually the Republican nominee, not just the “presumptive” nominee. Everyone stay focused, and keep voting Trump in the remaining primaries. Keep focused until February 2017.

Postcards to:

Spkr. Paul Ryan
1233 Longworth HOB
Washington, DC 20515

This is what I’m writing on my postcards:

Support Trump2016
- or we vote DEMOCRAT down-ballot in November!
#MAGA
