Bash asked, "Will you defund Planned Parenthood?"
"This is what I mean when I say being an effective opposition party. I think being an effective opposition party means being honest with people upfront about what it is we can and cannot achieve," he said.
"But we also have to push issues where we can push issues, we have to speak truth to power," he added. "We have a president that isn't willing to listen, that isn't going to sign lots of our bills into law, we have a Senate that has a very difficult process when it comes to actually getting bills voted on, so knowing that we have those constraints, we have to operate within those constraints."

Thank the Freedom Caucus for Speaker Ryan.

Man, what kind of dirt do the 'RATS have on Ryan?
Something Dennis Hastert-ish? Robert Menendez-ish? Larry Craig-ish? Ru Paul-ish?

I believe you are right; Ryan will be worse than Boehner, if that is possible. “Lawmakers”: Meet new boss, actually this time worse than old boss!

"This is what I mean when I say being an effective opposition party. I think being an effective opposition party means being honest with people upfront about what it is we can and cannot achieve," he said. Lying putz. He now controls the purse for killing babies but refuses to close it. And he's supposed to be Catholic?

Lyin’ Ryan, true to his moniker. My God, if they cannot even refuse to spend a few hundred million on baby killers as these, how are they suppose to defund Obamacare, the EPA, the Legal services Corporation, etc????? I'ts over, nothing will change until every single Rino and liberal is replaced.

Brave, Brave, Brave, Brave Sir Ryan!
Abortion reared it’s ugly head,
He bravely turned away and fled!
Brave, Brave, Brave, Brave Sir Ryan!

Full of shyte like a Christmas tree. He should quit now and save us the trouble of recalling him.
If you can’t defund an organization that harvest human parts from babies, you can’t defund anything for any reason.
When the Germans made lampshades from the skin of slaughtered Jews, at least the Jews had the opportunity to go down fighting if they so chose. A pity they didn’t.

As Ted Cruz has clearly articulated, to pass anything of importance in Washington it must be attached to a Must-Pass Bill.
That is the way to defund Planned Parenthood, and Paul Ryno knows it.
Boehner II
To: sparklite2
We truly need a revolution in this country. If the so-called conservative party that happens to be in power can't even cut government funding for an organization that proudly kills babies and sells off their organs for profit, than we need to start over from scratch.
Donald Trump will only be the start.

Paul Ryan needs to go explore the nearby river bottom for his dignity and honor while holding this huge rock...
