GOP U.S. Reps. Paul Ryan and Reid Ribble joined all three Dems in the state’s House delegation to support legislation to avoid the fiscal cliff.
Republicans Sean Duffy, Tom Petri and Jim Sensenbrenner voted against the deal, which passed the House 257-167.

It’s ok, he is pretty. PUKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ryan is finished as a national candidate. He had better learn to
enjoy the perks of just being a Chairman and congressman.
That is all the future holds for him.
There are a few facts to consider:
The “Bush Tax Cuts” are now PERMENENT, for couples making less than $450K
The low Dividend Tax rate is also now PERMENENT.
We still have the opportunity to fight other spending elements as we move to the battle on the debt ceiling.
So, if we move from the headlines to the details, this may have been the best possible outcome.
It does fall short in that there are about 200 politicians I’d like to see behind bars, but, that’s just me.
GOP souls are cheap these days.
RINO apologist begone!
We now have a vote to seperate the RINOS from the Conservatives...or those who just think that changing your principles may be expedient, you have sold your soul for your political aspirations...and I for one wont vote for someone like that.

Ryan showed his true colors when he endorsed Romney in order to get the VP slot. If it’s a choice between his personal ambitions and the needs of his constituents, he will choose what’s good for him. As will all the rest.
If Ryan runs for President sometime down the road, I hope voters will remember. Or if they don’t, someone should remind them as often as possible.
Bumping...
Oh, I forgot, this is a “No thinking allowed” zone.
We need a war time consigliere
Please go away, RINO gnat.
I will await Paul’s explanation before passing judgement. I respect him enough to do that....he has sound reasoning.
Probably what they’ll remember is the MSM pretending he’s a far-right nutjob, akin to Democrats having nominated VI Lenin for VP.
Republicans shouldn’t beat themselves up over this. Some taxes were kept from increase. Ryan can redeem himself by resuming the fight with vigor in 2014.
Republicans can act like that old commie Lennin, who, when asked whether he wanted to read the unfavorable peace treaty that was negotiated with Germany during WWI, stated something like: “Why should I read it — I have no intention of keeping it.”
Did you want to include yourself among the Bumpersticker reactionaries?

“DON’T BE FOOLED: The Republicans Are Winning”
Either they're playing Good Cop/Bad Cop, or someone else is pulling the puppet strings, because both parties are going in the same direction. The Repubs are just hiding it better.
Since we no longer have a government.
