Time for Speaker Paul Ryan to go. Enough is Enough
American Thinker ^ | 12/18/2015 | Ed Straker

Posted on 12/18/2015 8:15:34 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Paul Ryan is acting like every Democrat's wet dream. The massive budget he is shoving down America's throat is a wish list full of everything the Democrats could possibly want.

o He's giving $1.6 billion to resettle illegal aliens rather than deport them.

o He is fully funding Obama's illegal amnesty.

o He is fully funding Obamacare.

o He is fully funding Planned Parenthood and their baby cutting tactics.

o He is allowing Obama to bring in hundreds of thousands of Muslim refugees.

o He is fully funding the EPA's program to shut down coal-fired power plants.

o He is going to add hundreds of billions of dollars to our national debt.

Ryan also went back on his promise to change the process and have spending bills be reviewed in committee, one at a time; this is the same fat huge omnibus budget made behind closed doors that almost no one had read or reviewed as in the John Boehner era.

It's time for Paul Ryan to go. Republican who ousted John Boehner should launch another motion to declare the speaker's chair vacant. But they're not.

Oh look. More lesser evil. Thank the Freepers that help elect liberal Republicans for their part in this mess. No matter what.

Was there any Freeper that thought Ryan would be any different than John Boehner?

Yes. He has been there too long already. It was a stupid move to put him there in the first place. Even the good guys are weaklings.

What would be the point of Ryan being kicked out of the speakership? The Freedom Caucus would just put in another boehner clone. The FC is a Republican organization composed of Republicans. They were conservatives before they were elected but they got to DC and found out where the money is and became Republicans. That process will never change so long as terms are not limited to one (one) term and lobbyist jobs at higher pay are not awaiting members just as soon as they lose an election.

Glad you have the courage to admit it. It’s the first step to fixing America.

Now how were we to know that they were liars and RINOs prior to their election? I dont think they would have submitted to public lie detector test or truth serums:-)

People seem to think the Speaker of the House should be the chief ideological leader of his party or caucus. But only democrats like Pelosi agree. Republican speakers feel their job is to seek compromise with the other side in order to “do the work of the people”. That’s why you have Ryan instead of a conservative speaker.

Like the snake, they knew what he was before he was put in this job, and he ain’t goin’ anywhere because he is doing exactly what the Republicans want him to be doing.

This is exactly why Trump is ringing true.

Merry Christmas

Sounds like the old line about Bob Dole (I think it was said by Gingrich):

(paraphrasing) If the Dems proposed legislation to burn down the Library of Congress, Bob Dole would forge a compromise whereby they agreed to only burn one wing at a time.

Paul Ryan would then declare victory (and Peace in Our Time plus a Chicken in Every Lobbyist’s Pot, etc., etc.).

There are many Freepers still living in the less of two evil theory. That was a failure 30 years ago.

The GOP HATES their Base!

Enough was enough 5 YEARS AGO. But 20 minutes of research is anathema to most Americans, including, sadly, too many FReepers.

I’m shocked Romney would have selected someone as his VP candidate that would be capable of this.

Shocked I tell you.
