Dem Rep Ryan: ‘The House Is Burning Down’ In Democratic Party
Breitbart ^ | 11/21/16 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 11/21/2016 11:55:01 AM PST by Enlightened1

On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria,” Representative Tim Ryan (D-OH), who is challenging House Minority Leader Representative Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), stated, “I’m pulling the fire alarm, because the house is burning down, and we better get our act together or we’re going to cease being a national party.”

Ryan said, “[T]he average American, the average working-class American, flipped their middle finger to the establishment, the Democratic establishment, the Republican establishment, Wall Street. They think that everybody’s more concerned with the donor class than they the working class.”

He added, “[W]e can’t keep going down the same road. … I’m pulling the fire alarm right now, is what I’m doing in the Democratic Party. I believe we’re in denial of what’s happened. I’m pulling the fire alarm, because the house is burning down, and we better get our act together or we’re going to cease being a national party. We’re going to be a regional party that fails to get into the majority, and fails to do things on behalf of those working class people that were the backbone of the Democratic Party for so long. we better get our stuff together.”

The GOP was merely the slower handbasket until Trump stepped up. Just as the Rats were shooting over the edge of the cliff. Result looks like a Road Runner/Wile E. Coyote cartoon.

Why can’t we have a constitutional amendment saying that the president can NOT have been any other kind of politician before? That would have spared us some of the most aggravating figures we have seen in recent years.

I think this map already proves that they are no longer a national party. Just a coastal party.

To be more accurate, just a welfare party.

Off topic, but there seem to be a lot of blue counties along the Mexican border, even in red states like Texas and Arizona. There couldn’t be any illegals voting for Dems in those areas, could there? Nah, of course not, voter fraud doesn’t really happen, at least that’s what all the Libs say.

At one time Nasty Nancy was probably an attractive woman, but she’s trying so desperately to look 30 years younger, it’s cringe-worthy. She must spend hours and hours in front of a mirror every day applying pancake make-up, trying to conceal her bald spots, etc.

No, there is only 1 Speaker - currently Paul Ryan. If Tim Ryan wins, he will be House Minority Leader.

But I agree, it could get confusing if a reporter doesn't specify.

If you use the town by town vote the map is even more red. Huge swatches of red in the middle of Massachusetts even.

And here even Donald at his vainest has... a toupee. That’s it.

Women are prone to vanity. Did Margaret Thatcher ever care about getting dolled up anywhere close to this?

THAT is because men like female BODIES.
Women like male checkbooks, bank accounts and wallets.

Is there a song a la Wizard of Oz, from "Lions and tigers and bear, O MY!" in that? :o)

“The money is just to good from the donor class.”

It’s a much bigger problem than that. It’s the Saudi donor class and the Moroccan donor class and the . . .

Ever wonder why the hard green movement has infinite amounts of money? And why the US government can do nothing about CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood and Madrassas in America that teach Wahabbi fundamentalism, hatred of America, Sharia law and terrorism?

Trump won Ohio by something around 10 points.

My guess is he can see his own seat in jeopardy in the future.

His district is over 80% white.

And so the ladies think that so many tons of cosmetics will make their bodies that much more comely to the gents.

Have they ever thought of asking the gents if that’s even true? That might save them millions of dollars. Ma’am, I don’t want to see the lipstick. I want to see the smile on your face.

Not even a costal party. West Coast, big city and New England party. Hmm, the Federalist ended up being a big city, New England party too. How did that work out for them?

The Muslim peoples should be prime targets — for evangelism.

I think this is something that all too easily offended modern Christians miss.

There was a mosque built not too long ago in the Nashville area next to a major church.

Most of the church people thought “how dare they accost us like that? we don’t want their pressure on us with their jihad, their sharia, etc.!”

But the few that thought “Hey! People that we can now witness to! This is very convenient!” were a minority.
