Ryan proceeds with agenda the people requested — pass the legislation, send it to the President, let him veto to show the people where he stands. Now, if they schedule votes to overiride, we’ll all know where individual members of Congress and the Senate stand before the 2016 election.

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping lst.

How many of these pieces of legislation in the “veto war” are to defund or eliminate things the HOR already financed?

The president, who has yet to hold a meeting with new Republican Speaker Paul D. Ryan,

That's because the leash Obama has on him works just fine. Tug on the leash when Ryan gets antsy. Ryan gave him every damned nickel Obama wanted in the budget

ryan’s a skippidydooda show voter now that it’s too late to confront homobama’s agenda. He’s like the coward that comes out from behind a tree after the battle is over and wipes himself with blood to show how brave he is.

This might have more significance if Ryan had not already handed Obama a budget with everything he wanted.

now they can say they voted against planned parenthood and obamacare. The informed people know that they had already funded them both. I’ve lost all respect for ryan

The fool already gave Obama a check for everything he wanted.

Lyin’ Ryan is trying to keep from being Cantorized

Which he richly deserves

How many times did the House pass something under Boehner that went NOWHERE in the gutless McConnell Senate? Same song different melody, same rhetoric. The President will never see this legislation.

BS! It’s his phony attempt to sucker US voters into thinking he wants to do something for US VOTERS. He thinks we have forgotten the obummer budget passed by ryan and the scum in the senate!
