Im not blaming the rank and file members in either of the house or senate. I blame leadership.We deserve much better and have to get rid of bad leaders.

I do. If the rank and file had not voted for Paul Ryan, he would not be speaker. Members of congress gat paid to vote, not talk. Chatty blowhards who vote the party line after talking tough are like Baraq Obama and his red lines.

I think a lot of people were fooled by Ryan. they thought it would be a stand up guy and would do the right thing.I know many of us were fooled. Plus he appeared not to want the job. it’s hard to hard to underestimate just how strong just how difficult leadership can be on House members and then again on Senate members
