Two weeks after the end of his failed vice-presidential bid, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) was already thinking ahead to another big fight: immigration reform. And he was thinking about it in a bipartisan way.
Ryan ran into his old friend, Rep. Luis V. Gutierrez (D-Ill.), and urged him to restart his effort to get a comprehensive immigration package through Congress.

I had such hope for both Ryan and Rubio.
Now, not so much.

It's all about Paul.
He was one of those who pretended to have principles.

He did well grilling the IRS and does well on some other issues but on this one, very poor and very disappointing.
To: jimbo123
Ryan has always been GOP-e.
His little politeness hides his amnesty push.
To: Jewbacca
Now, not so much.So did I.
Now, not so much at all.

Ryan voted FOR TARP. Ryan voted FOR the bailouts of Fannie, Freddie, AIG and GM. Ryan voted FOR capping CEO pay. Ryan voted FOR the disastrous “Plan B” that not even Cantor voted for. Paul Ryan never was Conservative. Paul Ryan never will be Conservative. Paul Ryan was, is and will be a Poser. He got away with it, using Levin, Hannity and all their media access to foist stealth RINOism. Paul Ryan needs to be primaried, and then defeated.

It's all about Paul. He was one of those who pretended to have principles.His "principle" involved cutting Medicare while leaving welfare alone. I always thought Ryan was an anti-GOP dirtbag who stuck it to the average GOP voter to pander to his plutocrat donors.

Ryan was interviewed by Mark Liven a few weeks ago and Mark’s dogged questioning and countering on Ryan spewing his talking points to accept the Senate Immigration bill totally exposed Ryan. One could conclude from the interview that Ryan falls in with those in DC who work only to please their masters. Most unfortunate though, that’s always proved to be at the expense of the American people.

Paul Ryan must really want people like me to hate his guts.
