Paul Ryan

We've also got some good Tea Party candidates coming up on the ballot in the US senate and house. Ted Cruz from TX comes to mind.

And it is a start. A few strong Tea Party candidates this year, a few more 2 years from now...next thing you know the Tea Party might be that viable, strong, constitutionally minded 3rd party many of us want.

But, it has to happen within the current system and it's gonna take some time.

It's a start.

I think this is the most I've ever agreed with you. Well said.

Well geez, these discussions are boring when we all agree

Why do so many people disagree with Bailey all the time? Well, not openly ever. It only shows up when out of left field people start saying, "For once I agree with you."

And Mitt opposes the AWB now, doesn't he?

I don't trust a man who shifts his opinions for political reasons. Ryan's voting record is there and with a little research you will find that the infographic is correct.

Any jerk can talk a good game. It's your voting record that shows your true colors.

I've always based my votes on the candidates actions. Too many times their words are completely opposite of their votes or other actions. Nowadays with the internet it is so easy to get voting records. There is no excuse for not knowing any candidates record. There is a lot of other history on people that is normally available also.

I never, or very rarely, listen to what any politician says.

I once saw a dictionary entry that said politician was slang for lier.

actually we have disagreed openly a number of times. However when a man has a point you have to concede said point to him. Not sure if its ever gone the other way in this case but a man to proud to admit when someone else has a legit point of view is no man IMO.

I think Irving tends to avoid the legislation and politics sub-forum. If intentional, I can understand why. Sometimes I've just had enough of all the garbage.

This is a joke right?

Didn't know Ryan went to crazytown to pick up his abortion opinions. If anything will let Obama make the election about stuff other than the economy, Ryan's "no abortion including in cases of rape or incest" is going to help out quite a bit.

I'm also super thrilled that he is confirmed for supporting the auto bailout. That's what we need more of - the government stepping into the economy to save politically connected companies.

I some people holding out for "genuine cuts" that flat out will NOT happen in 2012 or 2013 when halving the Obama deficit growth over the next 10 years is a potential reality. I'd rather cut the size of government down to 1972 levels too but I'll take the reduced growth rate now as a downpayment rather than watch the deficit spiral as fast as it has the past 3 years.

Ever since that commercial where BHO threw his grandma off the cliff before she could spill the beans about where he was born. (And they tried to say it was Paul Ryan) I have liked him.
