RE :”WASHINGTON (Reuters) – House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan said on Thursday he supports cutting tax breaks for the oil industry as lawmakers search for ways to battle rising gasoline prices. In response to a question at a town hall meeting in Waterford, Wisconsin, the Republican congressman said he agreed that oil company subsidies should end. We're talking about reforming the safety net, the welfare system, we also want to get rid of corporate welfare,” Ryan said to applause

I have been warning you about this for weeks. Ryan and others are getting killed in these Town Hall meeting (on camera) because the Democrats, independents, whoever (they look like white middle class ~ 50s and 60s) came in to them with prepared scripted questions/Dem talking points like :”Why are you taking away my medicare to pay for tax subsidies to the big oil companies, and tax cuts for the rich?” and caught them off guard. It was like they were completely unprepared for these questions.

Giving in on the vote is just the formality in politics, it's the losing the debate (in voters eyes ) that is the loss. Republicans should have been prepared.

Some talk radio talk show hosts wont tell you this, they will say it's all imaginary or made up(unless its polls against Obama-care). But they dont have to be re-elected.

Infiltrated town halls are going to be routine, along with bleating out the old stand by, the racism card, so we have to get out in front of these tools of combat by exposing them loud and clear, and 24/7. Informing the black populations is a good destination while they are in the wake up mode beginning to see that Obama’s Plantation politics wants them kept, lock-stock-barrel in the field.

We have so-o-o much going for us if we saddle up and deliver the dang message!

And that is one reason why I don't listen to talk show hosts.
As for Ryan. He is in between a rock and a hard place on many things. The Alinsky process works so well, and conservatives are rarely if ever couched in how to avoid getting hammered.
