Rep. Paul Ryan will meet with members of the House Freedom Caucus Tuesday afternoon, the surest sign he is seriously considering a bid for House speaker, according to multiple sources familiar with the gathering. The meeting will take place ahead of a full gathering of the House Republican Conference at 7 p.m.

Per FOX TV...The meeting is going on NOW
I cant lie. I’m confused about Ted now.
TPP seems like a disaster and will take away some of our sovereignty.
Corker bill was disaster
and H1Bs ouch.
Is there any chance he’s a globalist and fooling us? I liked him so much.
But he hasn’t said much about helping Americans with jobs etc., just constant religious freedom talk and speaking out against Iran deal and how Israel is getting damaged.
I am concerned about Israel but what about us? jobs, debt, standard of living, he doesn’t talk about those things
This is a good thing now....love to see the heads explode here LOL.
Now it’s come to voting for Cruz, who many FReepers have deserted because of H1b, TPP and Corker bill.
Or Trump, who until recently had said many leftist things.
I know you have to in NYC to get things done.
Believe me, politics has come up in my interviews in Manhattan and I had to fudge the truth of what i believe to pay the bills. When i get hired, my true colors show lol,
He has take a hit for saying what he has financially. So I hope he is real.
Really? we’re down to two people we can vote for and it’s 11 months away?
Carson seems a little kooky. Dean was a doctor but wasn’t he a governor or senator before running. That kook lol.
Norm and I probably disagree on this..at least on a FEW points...but there IS >some< compromise. The Art of The Deal.
Of course morally there is NO compromise on good and evil, however sometimes you have to let the devil loose a bit to ...raise awareness.
Apologies to Revelations.
All I can say is in the big picture, he comes up on the right side of nearly every issue and he’s consistent. We can never really know 100%. I might not 100% agree with him but he stands behind what he says.
for me, I go by record. In and out of office. I’ll be voting Cruz. I trust him as much as one can trust a pol and easily more than the rest of the pack hands down. If I’m wrong, every other option would be no better and likely far worse.
Without the Freedom Caucus support, he will be embarrassed like Boehner and McCarthy.
IMHO he knows this and if he decides to go forward after meeting with them, it will be because he has agreed to their conditions.
“Really? we’re down to two people we can vote for and it’s 11 months away?”
That is correct.
good post.
Good Lord!!!
“not negotiating,”
Ryan may have been bloviating to see where it got him.
No where I hope!
TY!
I look at it in very black and white terms. No, Jesus isn’t running and I accept that he never will. But Good/evil is a pretty clear difference.
When I go off on lesser evil, it’s primarily on the types that can sit there, on an issue like Abortion, and say “Well, X is worse”. No, X isn’t. At the end of the day you still have 2 guys willing to kill children to win a seat in DC. Thats pretty clear evil. What else can one call barganing baby lives?
Stuff like this is existential to us as a people. We see clearly the result of ‘lesser evils’ that will compromise anything under the sun with a Democrat. Thats what the leftists here called them. Lesser evil.
What part of anything they did once given power is anything but straight up evil? You don’t trust a pedo with your young boy and you don’t trust a morally bankrupt person to govern you.
If the country goes to the Dems, it does so because there are not enough of us willing to stand up and tell them no.
That simple.
Agree!
Agreeing with me on this issue can be a health hazard. Back on July 14, one freeper who still posts openly, posted that such people should be shot. And I quote, “Every. One.”
such people should be shot...
to the poster: Come and get me. I am well...protected... wink, wink.
Well I’m still here so I have to think his testicles are as empty as his thoughts on the matter ;)
I think you’re right, the Republicans are too far gone. I’ll vote this primary then I’m changing registrations because I don’t even want to be associated with them.
” Thats what the leftists here called them. Lesser evil.

PERIOD
I really don’t see how anyone giving even cursory thought to the issue could come up with any other position. Facts aren’t negotiable.
