Paul Ryan Thinks Voters Will Reward Republicans for Dismantling Our Social Safety Nets
After Newt Gingrich came on Meet the Press last week and had the unfortunate circumstance of finding out what happens to any Republican who dares to tell the truth about Paul Ryan's budget plan, Ryan got a chance to respond this week. Apparently Ryan hasn't figured out yet that his plan to turn Medicare into a voucher system or going after Social Security isn't going to be popular with the voters, ever. Ryan is delusional enough to believe that somehow the Republicans are going to be able to "move the polls" on the issue.
He also agrees with Freedom Works Dick Armey and Matt Kibbe that "entitlement reform" or a.k.a. dismantling our social safety nets should be a litmus test for any Republican running for office in 2012. I find it astounding that they actually think jumping off that cliff together is a good idea.



Even if Ryan's privatization plans fall through in Congress, his future has been assured.
If his political career falters , he can join Dubya, et.al. on the millionaires' speechifying tour where he'll collect cash for massaging billionaires' inflated egos all the while being quoted by the Villagers about how solid and serious he is.

Paul Ryan is an actor, putting forward what ever ideas, policies or laws he is paid to. He produced no budget, he had no plans and his only thought is how much he is going to get paid to say what ever he is paid to say.
It should not be made more obvious to anyone, than by that crass commercial to launch that insane far right budget, the idiot walking down a corridor with his sleeves rolled up like he had a job to do.
A budget produced by billionaires to put 300 million Americans at their mercy, a budget produced by the psychopathically insane, who not only lack empathy for the pain and suffering they cause but who revel in it.
Yes, let's kick the crutches from under cripple patients and I'm sure they will thank us for it later when they learn how much fun it is to crawl.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
David Gregory is like an inflatable sex doll for the Repubtards. They thrash away with their wildest fantasies while Dave just lays there. No distracting noises out of Dave while the freak lays out his most twisted, demented, perverse plans. The Repubtards can have it any way they want it with David. The weirder the better.

If the voters are so mislead that they reward the GOP for dismantling the social safety net, while increasing tax breaks for the rich and multi-national corporations, this country is in serious trouble.
We have had the biggest redistribution of wealth in history from the poor and middle class to the rich, because of the GOP. Now we are supposed to reward them. I don't think so.

being in Wisconsin, and hearing what some of the rebubs are saying, and these people make 40000k a year working overtime. just dont want they're taxes to go up. so they keep voting repub, because they believe that they wont raise taxes. even if it hurts them in the long run and short run.
From Milwaukee and agree there are some pretty stupid, ignorant people in WI. (most upnorth) that just are so brainwashed and blatently refuse to educate themselves. I say lets get the recalls a movin' asap. and throw out all the Reslugs, so we can restore WI to the great state it was.
Ok I didn't wait for the vid to download before I commented. While it's true that David Gregory is the Repudlican party's fifi bag ( Definition: A plastic baggy containing a piece of raw liver or jello used for sexual self gratification. origin: prison slang ). Having now watched the vid David did ask a few more questions than usual. Paul comes off as a nervous Eddie Haskel (see "Leave it to Beaver").

I am so sorry for your recent diagnosis. Go ahead and file. But be aware that SSI nearly always turn down new claims. I guess they either expect you to give up, or die. I had to hire an attourney to get my benefits, and that really stuck in my craw. I detest most lawyers. Still took two years to have my application approved.
ima coonass me, what kinda ass r u?

Wow, no respect for the elderly. There will be hell to pay for this immature, ignorant little kid.
Is it the 21st century yet?
his title is...'kock--sucking-punk-ass,ignorant little kid'....i think.
....the fools do not realize,a population that can ,..... not paticipate .............in the 'economy'...,can not keep it viable!..........."we are listening,.......and we're not blind.,......this is your life....this is your time."
It is the elderly that voted these people into office. I have no respect for the elderly either.
Yes, the poPulation is way ahead of the political "class" relative to dismantling medicare and turning it into a cash cow for insurance companies at the expense of the elderly and infirm. What amazes me is that up until this point, I certainly was not aware there was a POLITICAL CLASS.
I want some of what he is smoking!
...is all Republicans "jumping off that cliff together" NOT a good idea?

Paul Ryan is a major dumbass. Seriously, the guy just ain't too bright. So much for the GOP's "serious" budget guy.
Newt is their intellectual heavyweight...

... under estimate the stupidity of the American people. They elected Bush TWICE didn't they?
"Apparently Ryan hasn't figured out yet that his plan to turn Medicare into a voucher system or going after Social Security isn't going to be popular with the voters, ever."
that he wasn't elected in 2000 and the election was stolen by Blackwell in 2004. Yes, some voters voted for him, the stupid ones.

You need a little less caffein this early.
Men are basically smart or dumb and lazy or ambitious. The dumb and ambitious ones are dangerous and I get rid of them. The dumb and lazy ones I give mundane duties. The smart ambitious ones I put on my staff. The smart and lazy ones I make my commanders.
The fact that this issue has gotten so far and is still alive tells me that they are going to succeed with it. Of course it makes no sense, but I am willing to bet that it is going to go through in some version.
The laughing and jeering I see here and on other blogs, is just kind of pathetic to me. Don't count on an election getting in their way. Obama is going to be re-elected and it is still going to happen. He will not fight against it. He has already accepted it in principle when he nominated the deficit commission and then did not repudiate the Simpson-Bowles report.
that the deficit commission were nominees for anything. To set up committees to try to work out a solution is not caving in. I believe that Obama is giving them a chance to try to work something out and from what I see, they are making it clear to you and the rest of the voters, republicans aren't serious about solving problems.
Be sure to listen to the NPR piece, too!

Ryan and the others are delusional but repetitive!
OK I watched the vid again . David clearly got a bump in his BVD's over his heavy questioning of Paul "Eddie Haskel" Ryan. He's so fucking edgy he's about to explode. I hope the studio has a good supply of wet naps.
LOL

Paul Ryan was elected to represent the electorate, not to 'lead'. Dictators are elected to 'lead'. Ryan has an intellectual disability.
What everyone knows is that to fix the budget deficit we have to end wasteful military spending, end tax cuts for the rich, end tax loop holes for corporations, and end subsidies to major corporations like the oil companies! Everyone knows that except apparently Ryan!
We also know that we have to end outsourcing to China and India, end union busting by republicans, crack down on wall Street and banking fraud, repeal 'Citizens United' ruling that gives corporations person-hood, provide single payer medical insurance, rebuild the infrastructure, and end the pointless invasion and occupations in Af-Pak and elsewhere.
We know perfectly well that there is no need whatsoever to touch Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security.
Paul Ryan is a wanna be dictator with a taste for power, privilege, and elitism. He is a tool - a corporate tool.

Well, I think we've already established that even the GOP thinks Ryan's plan is toxic.
But, off topic a bit, Heather? "a.k.a.' stands for "also known as" - think of it in long form when you use it, and it becomes easier to spot things like, in that second paragraph, "or also known as." (Didn't need the "or")
What you may see as constructive criticsm or correction, others may see as condecending. You got the jist of the comment, right? Yes, you were way off topic. I see this behavior in comments sections all the time. So, you've proved yourself to be smarter than some people. Feel better, now?
ima coonass me, what kinda ass r u?
If Paul Ryan thinks that seniors won't come after him if he goes after their benefits, then he's nuttier than a bowl of walnuts.
Somehow, I don't think that many of the suckers who voted GOP last November were REALLY thinking that they wanted to sacrifice health care for themselves and their family members so that billionaires could get even bigger tax cuts.

Voters will reward Republicans for dismantling our Social safety nets?
Sounds similar to "Americans will be welcome as liberators by Iraqis"...
the Dems will take away your guns and bibles, dismantle your wars, naturalize the evil immigrants, and where are the jobs ? It's the Dems fault. They control the Whitehouse and the Senate and it's all their fault. Gas prices ? It's their fault, drill, drill, drill ! Do you really think all the Repub drones won't respond to their usual propaganda ?
match shooting at Quantico, after puchasing a "home defense" style assault rifle-or-two. Other presidents make a big deal of blowing off steam at the golf course. Let Obama do it at the rifle range. Qualify as a Marine sharp shooter. End of "Dems are taking away your guns" propaganda.
I think they refer to him as Eddie Munster. Just look at him. All grown up....and serious? Give me a break.
chimp-in-a-hairdoo pleasuring each other on prime time national TV. I guess the FCC excuses this kind of porn if it's billed as a news and analyses show.
This delusional sociopath and his peers will soon enough discover what the voters think of their pathological scheming.
Reslugs always throw their returds under the bus. Ryan is dead.
he reminds me of an idiot I met in San Francisco that despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, he is a sociopath unable to truly empathize with another human being.
