The Republican Party has been a lost cause for a long time. It is what it is.

The ONLY thing the EXEMPT, every-hated,
systematically lying, GOP can be trusted to do
is ... to support Obama, the Democrats, and
to continue using the IRS against conservatives.

Let's see. The Silent Majority, the Moral Majority, Reagan Democrats, Tea Party, the Freedom Caucus, and Conservatism in general. All assigned to the dust bin of history?

I’m reading articles where it said they oppose it, yet this one say they support it. So which is it? If I’m a betting man, I bet they will fall in line and support Ryan

If Ryan got his demands then we have clearly reached the point where a third party is essential.
What would be the point of supporting ANY “Republican” if dictator Ryan controls everything in the party anyway?

So they’re actually going to back a part-time Speaker, who wants a rubber stamp to cut whatever deals with Reid and Pelosi he wants?

What a load of crap. The article says nothing of the sort. Daniel Webster is still the choice of the Freedom Caucus— BECAUSE he WILL dismantle the crap that is Congress, and WILL NOT abandon the Jefferson rules to remove a speaker (which is how boner got boned btw).
Ryan is a LIAR, but being at ways and means he is a greaser too, so there’s the break in the dam potential. Earmarks... back again.

Two faxes and a hen vote on what’s for lunch.

I don’t trust the WaPo. I just read that 75% are not going along with Ryan’s ridiculous demands.

I said when he demanded a commitment of support that it was a brilliant move and would secure the position for him.

No.
The HFC rules require a 80% vote of the members.
Ryan didn’t get that.
