Every congressman takes an oath of office to preserve and defend the constitution. Voting for an obviously unconstitutional tax is a violation of that oath. Mr. Ryan cannot take his vote back now. He voted with his emotions and he violated his oath. He should be removed from office.
Here here, Marlowe!!
The lunatics are surely running the asylum; and, we are all the poorer for it.
OTOH, I believe that if the congress critter has actually LEARNED from what he and his colleagues have done, he is in a more learned position to do a better job next time. Much better than starting from scratch with a new one. IOW, he's worth watching velly closely before forming an opinion on his appropriateness of office.
