PAUL RYAN: JOB OF U.S. LAWMAKER IS TO PUT YOURSELF IN SHOES OF FOREIGN CITIZENS
Breitbart ^ | October 20, 2015 | by Julia Hahn

Posted on 10/20/2015 4:25:30 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

As the donor class continues to push for a Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)58% Speakership, conservative activists have renewed their scrutiny of Ryan’s support for a radical Republican policy of open borders. Breitbart News has discovered yet another little-noticed video in which Ryan articulates his commitment to immigration policies that would dissolve America’s sovereignty.

The video, uploaded by the Journal Times, shows Ryan at a July 2013 bilingual Hispanic Listening Session in Racine, Wisconsin. At the meeting, Paul Ryan told a predominantly Hispanic audience that the job of a U.S. lawmaker is to put oneself in the shoes of foreign nationals who want to come to the United States, then work to discover solutions to make their lives better.

The Journal Times notes that the purpose of the meeting was for Ryan to “explai[n] to them his motives” for pushing to enact Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)80% ’s amnesty and mass immigration agenda in the House of Representatives.

"Ryan sold out."

I suspect he was never really that conservative to begin with.
Total fraud from the beginning.

As opposed to the real job of a US lawmaker which is to make America better for American citizens and think about foreign nationals little or not at all.

You know, I really find it odd that so many conservatives look at electoral politics and see only two possible alternatives: winning outright or insurrection. That’s really weird because I see neither alternative as being particularly likely. Yeah, I guess some bunch of knuckleheads could start a war, but it’s not likely in my view. And with asshats such as PR and his friends, I don’t see winning outright as really being in the cards, either.

What about the rest of the universe of possibilities? Like a political stalemate. Or we win a few and lose a few?

Or large numbers of people just ignore elections and live their lives more or less as they see fit? Sort of like a lot of folks are doing already.

Why didn’t all the Jews in Germany just ignore those pesky NAZIs?

Same reason. Same mentality of people in power.

Norm, it’s not strictly a binary choice. You also have the choice to walk away and not participate.

How did that work in NAZI Germany for the Jews?

I get your point. I sympathize. But we go down fighting, Go down on our knees or win.

Some did. The smart ones (most) didn’t sit around waiting for improved election results. They got the hell out of dodge. Are you suggesting that voting would have somehow changed their fate?

Interesting side issue: der fuhrer was quite fond of referendums. Held several of them.

Not following all constitutional avenues leaves 2 choices. The cowardice of ignoring the problem until the cattle cars arrive or the Tree of Liberty.

Thems the choices.

The stupid burns. If people spent a fraction of the time wasted on fantasy we might accomplish something good for a change.
