Paul Ryan's Latest Speech Said One Thing: He's Running
Esquire ^ | 3/22/16 | Charles Pierce

Posted on 03/22/2016 4:53:11 PM PDT by DeathBeforeDishonor1

WASHINGTON, D.C.—All three of the remaining presidential candidates got the prime speaking slots Monday night at the annual AIPAC policy conference, to which we were not invited, alas, although that seems to have been somewhat epidemic. But any chance we get to hear Paul Ryan, the zombie-eyed granny starver from the state of Wisconsin, talk about foreign policy, the area in which Joe Biden literally laughed him out of the campaign in 2012, is one that we never should pass up. (Remember when Ryan explained to us that, in Afghanistan, it snows during the winter? Gravitas!) Of all the barefaced pandering that went on yesterday, and Hillary Rodham Clinton was singing in tune Monday afternoon, the face of Ryan's pandering was the barest of all, and not just because he's lost the scruff he was cultivating a few months back. This was a guy doing more than rattling the saber. He was swinging it around his head until the air whistled. And, yes, this was a guy who's still thinking about being president, no matter how many non-facts he burbles out on the topic to various interviewers.

And, yes, on foreign policy, as is the case on economic policy, which I will continue to let Professor Krugman handle, Paul Ryan remains one of the biggest fakes we ever have seen. Let us begin and see where he leads us.

Ryan is not going to run. Nor would he ever get the nomination

If Charles Pierce wrote it and Esquire published it, it's certain to be untrue.

The hag will, no, let me rephrase, Ryan will let the hag mop the floor with him. Just like 08 and 12, totally orchestrated by the crony establishment in order to continue the demise of this country for the benefit of those pushing the NWO

The first thing that Ryan needs is for CRUZ TO STOP TRUMP.

Look for LOTS OF PEOPLE here (and elsewhere) now claiming to be “Cruz Supporters” - but keep in mind their REAL OBJECTIVE.

True Cruz supporters know, FULL WELL, that their support for him is just enabling Ryan (or Romney, Jeb, or Linda) to be the nominee.

Ryan as a VP candidate was lame. He lacks energy and passion. Cris Cristie would have been a better choice. What has he accomplished as speaker a 2 trillion budget.

Even before Trump showed up to put the major counter-point to it, Ryan looked like an ass-kissing, duplicitous, prevaricating slime-ball politician — POLITICIAN! — in the AIPAC speech.

Kabuki theater. All machinations behind the scenes that are too subtle and nuanced for us unwashed masses /s

No means yes in politics. Emphatic no means hell yes.
