Churchill was once confronted by an old hag who screamed; You, sir are drunk!
He replied; Yes, but in the morning Ill be sober and you will still be ugly.
Had I been dining with Ryan, Id have asked him; My God, are all crack whores that ugly?

I wish this had been NJ Governor Chris Christie, he would have already curtly responded, “It’s none of your business how much money I spend on a bottle of wine.”

Were paying our pols way too much if they can afford $300+/bottle booze. Ryan didn't order the wine. The other person at the table did. Ryan did not know how much it cost. When he found out, he paid for one bottle to avoid the appearance of impropriety. I don't see how he has done anything wrong, even by your standards (ie, that public servants are wrong to drink expensive wine).

...the photo she snapped of Ryan and two men sitting a few tables away appeared to be taken from her own table, and on that table was a bottle of wine.... the wine was a Thierry et Pascale Matrot 2005 Meursault, which is $80 per bottle at Bistro Bis.So basically, her diatribe was brought on by wine envy.

He did not buy the bottle the story said.
The person complaining is a public employee and there is an $800 bottle on her table.

I say we pay the guy too damn much and that's he's a flaming idiot.
And I stand by both those assertions.

Next time Ryan should tell the waiter to camouflage the $350 wine in a box before he brings it to the table.That should satisfy Ms Feinberg.

Trust is the coin of the realm.
Pols are flat busted.
This kinda behavior does not inspire trust.

Hows about a pox on both parties' members of the ruling class. I'll drink to that. What's your best wine? ;~))

That’s such a great idea. Anybody walking by her at a restaurant should gush, “Are you the woman who brought Paul Ryan down?” And then snap a picture.

These Lib attacks are so disgusting that I just contributed to Ryan’s PAC. Keep up the good work, Paul.

Rutgers is the State University of New Jersey. Where is Chris Christie on this issue, inquiring minds want to know?

And I really fail to see the connection between anyone’s spending of their own money on whatever they please and medicare and medicaid...
but then again, I’m not a leftist who believes the nomenclatura should control all the wealth of the country.

So he spent 3x what she did on wine...Consider it this way, he split a bottle of expensive wine 3 ways - so he drank only a third of the wine.
Meanwhile, the cultured, tolerant, educated Libtard drank the whole bottle of wine by herself - and very likely drove home afterwards.

Who paid for Ms. Feinberg's wine... inquiring minds want to know?
I'll bet money that Ms. Feinberg ordered her wine on a university expense account. Se probably has never paid for a meal out of her own pocket and that is why she jumped to the conclusion he was being a hypocrite.
