It looks more and more like the plan was to put a pro-amnesty Speaker in before Obama is out of office.

I said it before, I'll say it again. The three months after next year's election, (Nov-Jan) are going to be the most dangerous for the survival of this country.

Chamber Appreciates Efforts of Negotiators on Trans-Pacific Partnership

Thomas J. Donohue

President and CEO, U.S. Chamber of Commerce

The U.S. Chamber appreciates the efforts by U.S. negotiators and those of other participating nations to conclude the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) negotiations.

While a high-standard trade agreement covering nearly 40% of the world economy is a worthy goal that enjoys our full support, we reserve judgment on the agreement pending review of the final text with our members.

Too often, U.S. companies are forced to compete with one hand tied behind their back in the Asia-Pacific region. High tariffs, non-tariff barriers, and other measures at times deny a level playing field for U.S.-made products and services. Further, a web of more than 140 trade agreements has spread across the region, providing advantages for participating nations, while the U.S. is often stuck on the outside, looking in.

If the goal of eliminating these barriers and establishing high standards for the region is met, the TPP could prove to be a game changer for American workers, farmers, and companies. The U.S. business and agricultural communities agree we must tear down the barriers that shut out U.S. goods and services and put fairness and accountability at the fore in our trade relations with this vital region.

It’s war!

And the RINOs are going to lose this one.
Primary them all.

Ryan may suffer the same fate as Cantor.

Ryan doesn't even bother with a back stab on this, he's using a front stab.

Yep, the GOPe isn't even trying to hide it anymore.

Partly. He’s more the lesser evils revenge for making them pretend to be conservative.

When Paul Ryan was picked as Romney’s V.P. I did some checking on the guy...I didn’t like what I read about him...

I’m sure there are better people that we can support for this position...what happened to Daniel Webster?

It keeps getting harder to find any bright spot in a Ryan Speakership.

The media tout Hoppe as a former VP of Heritage, but he was only there for 3 short months. Everything thing else in his record shows a RINO, and a Senate RINO at that.

Though I love Dr Carson... I want Trump to be the next President, because he is the only one who will stand up to Ryan and anyone else in the GOP who wants to do away with the Conservatives in the Republican Party. I have to hold him to his word, so far.

IF... Trump does not fulfill his promises (when elected)... we would be just plain sunk! I can’t see Cruz or Carson being able to stand firm... and not end up compromising with the establishment. Though I like them both.. how strong would they be in the face of an all out onslaught from the left, the media and the Republican Party? It’s pretty fierce when all of them attack!

It’s getting closer to the election... the hope I have is that hillary will be defeated...(God help us from her) and Trump will be in the driver’s seat. I can’t even think of the dems winning and our country going further and further down the drain.. I can’t imagine this United States weak and a non entity in the world affairs.

I see strange things going on.... they report hillary won the day on Thurs.. go figure... so I don’t rule out anything. They can turn lies into truth... the left has no barriers of what they are capable of.

The media and Fox News.. are praising Ryan.

As I see it, we didn’t win this round... boehner gone.. so the talking heads on Fox think we are satisfied. They got what they want.. boehner junior... Ryan.

I don’t want him... he turned on us right after they lost the election. He never was what he pretended to be.

They don't want to lose their ‘power’ and ‘money’ ...

If you look at any House or Senator, when they went in, what their earnings are, compared to now, you'll see it's a lot...same with their power, being in a high committee or serving as a Chair of a high committee means a lot of power to swing for other people...

Not us, they don't do anything for us, except take our money and make our lives miserable...I'm talking lobbyists, foreign nationals, oil, trade, manufacturing...all this stuff is power...and that is what they don't want to lose...

So if we decide not to re-elect these people, and pick the new kid on the block, they won't have the power and money...

Same with immigration...the more people they can bring in and indoctrinate to vote for them, the less chance we have of getting who we want...it's all their way or the highway....

You are welcome. (I think that it is pretty accurate, at least as far as the membership list.)
