I feel the same about the Conservatives. Why is there not one Conservative willing to take the job?

As Laura Ingraham correctly put it “Ryan wants a pre-nup.”

I anybody is trying to talk themselves into believing Ryan as Speaker will be OK just stop. He’s going to likely be Speaker because nobody else wants it and he’s not going to be good for conservatives.

“Paul Ryan is the front man for the Cheap Labor/CoC lobby. If he becomes Speaker the Republican party is dead.”

All anyone needs to know.

“I am stunned by the weak Conservatives in the House. “

Prior to an all-encompassing blame, do not include my rep Louie Gohmert, who ALWAYS has the best of this country at heart, I guarantee.

So much of the “Tea Party” was Republican Establishment astroturf.

Wisconsin should replace Paul Ryan with a Parrot

Those Conservatives: We’re not the problem Paul. You are.

I’ve recently had a problem in my personal life. Someone did something that I felt wronged me a great deal.

I wouldn’t accept it, so I changed my life in ways some of the family didn’t like.

Now I’m told I should, “Take the first step to end it.”

That’s what Ryan is asking Conservatives to do.

People who did no wrong and are merely demanding the right thing be done, are suddenly the ones who need to take the first step. Horse stuff...

Those that strayed off the Conservative reservation are the ones who need to get their act in order.

Ryan, get back to basics. Knock it off!

So he wants a politician’s version of tenure. Can’t be fired as SOTH no matter what.
What an ass.

"Ryan urged his House colleagues to stop blaming the other party, the president, and the media for blocking their agenda."

WTF!!!!!!

Has this idiot been under a rock for the last year?

We're blaming the GOPe for rolling over like a 10 cent whore.

F' ryan.

You really believe that there isn't one willing to take the job?

Kindly get your facts straight, Boner wouldn't allow a vote on one. Boner just ended the session and walked out after the first guy stepped down.

If someone needs to be persuaded to take the job, they are not the person for the job.

Of course I believe it. I don’t believe for one minute it is Boehner’s fault. He wants to retire. He has bent over backwards trying to convince someone....anyone to take the job. Do you hear any Conservative on any talk show saying they would take the job? Tweet? Facebook post? Anything? Nothing. They feel like it is easier to not be in leadership and just complain all day. In a way, Conservatives are right about that. Easy Peasy for them.

Sorry, he only wants the status quo to continue and so far has not allowed a vote hoping he can get some shill like Paul Ryan in.

Daniel Webster is acceptable, wanted the job, yet was denied a vote.

Boner is dishonest and since the 2014 election has been the worst Republican speaker ever. Totally useless, totally vapid, totally insipid. Get your facts straight please.

The GOPe is the problem; not the conservatives.

What if:

1.) The Republicans collapse the Benghazi hearings.

2.) Ryan becomes speaker.

Either one or both together would mean the United States government has been completely suborned by the Soros cabal.
