As soon as Paul Ryan, R-Wis., becomes Speaker of the House, the race will be on for his current post, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee.
At present, it looks like Rep. Kevin Brady, R-Texas, will square off with Rep. Pat Tiberi, R-Ohio, to replace Ryan at Ways and Means, the House’s tax-writing committee.

Brady, now co-chairman of the Joint Committee on Taxation, has the reputation of a hard-liner. Tiberi, an ally of his fellow Ohioan, John Boehner, is viewed as more of a moderate. In our current scorched-earth landscape, the calculus may seem simple – dump everything and everyone remotely associated with Boehner and go with Brady.
But a closer look reveals Tiberi may be a better fit.
Tiberi is a pro-business Republican. Elsewhere in Congress, this might disqualify him, but at Ways and Means, it could prove instrumental in a number of ways.
A lot of tax law concerns business and trade, where his background could help.
Also, Tiberi’s business connections have helped make him a formidable fundraiser, both for himself and others. This year alone, he has hauled in $1.3 million and has $3.4 million on hand. Brady has collected about $844,000 and has less than $1 million on hand.

Brady is a turd. And that’s on a good day.
In it for the money.
FLAT TAX
Now it’s getting into how the sausage is made,
and frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.
“Now it’s getting into how the sausage is made,
and frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.”
You must not realize that, next to Speaker, the Chairman of the House Ways and Means is the single most important position in the House, unquestionably.
On his very very best day brady, I call him kevin barely because he barely counts for a person, is a mental midget.
Check out his website. He claims his greatest accomplishment in life is being a member of lumba lumba upchuck fraternity in frog spit, south dakota.
I haven’t a single good thing to say for kevin barely.
Sure isn’t anything to pick from is it?
Drooling idiot 1 or drooling idiot 2. I think kev barely is a drunk to boot.
He was my congressman before redistricting. I went to him 8 years ago, with proof of white-collar crimes perpetrated by illegal immigrants, doing destructive things in our area. He promised, at a town hall meeting, that his staff would look into it and get back with me. I gave them a lot of documentation. To this day I’ve never heard a word from him or his office. He is a low life S. O. B.
Never heard of this Brady fellow. I used to live in Tea Berry’s district. Totally worthless.
