Speaker Ryan AWOL as Dems Take over House Floor in Anti-Gun Rights Media Stunt
Breitbart ^ | 22 Jun 2016 | Neil W. McCabe

Posted on 06/22/2016 1:53:01 PM PDT by detective

House Democrats seized the House Floor as Speaker Paul D. Ryan addressed the American Enterprise Institute about his plans to amend President Barack Obama’s healthcare reform in 2017. As the Speaker discussed his plans for the next session of Congress to the private gathering, he ordered the cameras on the House floor turned off.

Six dozen of the Democratic legislators gathered in the well of the chamber in front of the rostrum and announced they would not leave until Ryan promised to bring bills restricting gun rights to the House floor.

"The college-style sit-in was organized with the approval of Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calif.) and her leadership team."

Ryan is too weak to do anything about the sit in by Democrats.

Pelosi would never had organized it if she thought Ryan could do anything about it.

A Speaker should have control of the House of Representatives. He should exercise leadership and authority. Ryan is incapable of this. All Ryan is able to do is whine about Trump and try to sabotage the Republican Party.

Could Ryan be any weaker and less respected?

He has no idea what to do.

Next will be Democrat activists filling the galleries, throwing feces and tampons, like they did in Texas and Wisconsin.

Just as Harry Reid never really lost control of the Senate, Pelosi never really lost control of the House.

The liberal agenda was never in any real danger. What has it been denied?

This was Ryan deliberately making the floor available to Pelosi. What happened was what Ryan wanted to happen.

Ditch the GOPe's pathetic princeling, Paul Ryan.



There is an alternative.

democrats are scum. They used the murder of 49 people to try to take guns from non-violent people.

I just naturally assumed that Ryan was out rounding up some milk and cookies for the little ‘RAT punks.

Ryan needs to be taught a lesson along with all the RINOS and the DINOS. Ryan is nothing less then a small twerp who wants to be re-elected so he can, as he publically stated, render Trump guidance. Hey Ryan, do you seriously think Trump needs guidance from YOU???? Your a looser that I do hope looses in your quest to be re-elected. The lesson being:
The DEMe have stated that the right wing, gun owners are more of a threat to our beloved USA. That is a massive lie. Liberalism is the greater threat ten fold.

The GOPe has recently stated that THEY want to teach us, meaning "We The People" a lesson.
Time to teach THEM, those who work for "We The People" a lesson....

TIME TO VOTE THEM OUT AND ENACT TERM LIMITS


A term limit website

IN LIBERTY

My Congressrat is one of them. He tweeted out how he was joining house democrats in protest.

I tweeted back “Grow UP, you’re a United States Congressman, not some radical trying to relive the ‘60’s.”

our right as Americans to keep and bear arms without infringement... is constitutionally recognized right

the D’s right to abortion on demand is NOT a constitutionally recognized right (SCt notwithstanding, the constitution does not even mention any right to abortions)

if the D’s are going to screw up Congress with their childish ‘sit ins’ to try to deprive Americans of our constitiutioal rights,
maybe the R’s might start holding their own “sit ins” to try to shut down the mass-scale taxpayer-supported baby murder factories????

just wondering...
