Oh, please!
I have to part ways with Rep. Ryan on the insurance voucher idea. Insurance companies are a corrupt scum of the earth pyramid scheme that are leaches on society and should not be allowed to have anything to do with any government plan.
Care to back that statement up with some facts?
Can we wait that long? We won’t have a country left.
(Reuters) A fund of offshore hedge funds run by two members of VP Joe Biden's family was marketed exclusively by offshore firms controlled by Texas financier Allen Stanford, charged by regulators with an $8 billion fraud, the Wall Street Journal said.
The Bidens $50 million fund was jointly branded between the Bidens' Paradigm Global Advisors LLC and the offshore Stanford Financial Group entity headquartered in Antigua, and was known as the Paradigm Stanford Capital Management Core Alternative Fund, the paper said. Stanford-related offshore companies marketed the Biden fund to investors and also invested about $2.7 million of their own money in the fund, the paper said, citing a lawyer for Paradigm.
Paradigm Global Advisors is owned through a holding company by the vice president Biden's son, Hunter, and Joe Biden's brother, James, according to the WSJ. Paradigm's attorney, Marc LoPresti, who represents Hunter Biden and James Biden, as well as Paradigm, told the paper he did not know which Stanford entity invested the roughly $2.7 million.
Marc LoPresti, who represents Hunter Biden and James Biden told the paper the Bidens NEVER met or communicated with Stanford. (/snicker)

Was Obama’s budget socialist? Ryan’s is only 5% better.Ryan’s will spend 3.6 trillion next year. That is socialism. Ryan adds 1.6 to the debt next year(based on 2011 revenue) that is the facts.
Biteme will love Ryan’s budget; its just as phony as the crap Boner just pushed through with Dem help.
So, let’s see.
Mrs. Palin is an idiot, but Mr. Biden is an extreme genius.
Yup. Really makes sense.
