The author of this editorial makes some excellent points, IMHO

Idiocy. The “heartless conservative killing granny” had a devastating effect on conservatives in 2010. /SARCASM

He also misuses the phrase “begs the question.”

These are the same charts the liberals are posting all around on Twitter. I wonder if they originated from a democrat website or if the article itself is supplying the opposition with them.

Heard a lib say today that Romney’s VP pick “is a sign of weakness”. So making something stronger is a sign of weakness. Got it.

The author is a cynical Libertarian, unwilling to ever give any credit to anyone who tries to make a difference for the Conservative cause.

Screw Libertarians, they don’t know how to win much of anything!

Let’s put it this way. Paul Ryan is one of those very few candidates I was hoping would run for President but never decided to run in the primaries.

I’m happy

He’s also the son of a Bulgarian communist intel operative.

ZeroHedge is Soviet agitprop.

” Harry Reid knows someone who once saw Paul Ryan tear the tag off a mattress. “

I enjoy Durden more often than not, but I think he misses the boat here.

Yes, it is an incremental approach to resolving the deficit, but it is far, far better than what we have today.

It is already a very tough sale politically. I am not sure the American people will even buy this relatively modest proposal as it is. I can’t even imagine going to them with an even more aggressive plan — although I sure would love for that to be the case.

LOL!

Maybe I will post that on his Facebook.

“You didn’t hear it from me but a friend of my cousin who works in a cheese factory in Wisconsin has a former boss that actually saw a missing tag off a mattress that supposedly belonged to a cousin of THE Paul Ryan”

Its harder to sell $1trillion cut than give vague answers without offending anyone, but when they get into office, they have no excuse not do do massive cuts. That is what most conservatives are hoping for

Right, so now Paul Ryan is a big spending RINO liberal?

The author can take this brilliant analysis and shove it.
