Is there a way Wisconsin voters can recall this idiot after they kick Scott Walker to the curb? 

Ah, yes. Isn’t this the same guy who wants to deny contraceptive coverage to women, while reducing aid to children of needy families? 

Spats here. Gloves’ idot liberal cousin.
I say, who needs poles? Obmamba don’t take orders from nobody, and he is going to send them Congressguys packing and do what he wants, cause he’s the head gangster and who’s gonna stop him? That’s the Chicago Dem way, so lump it, you suckers.

 Again your racism is so apparent. “Gangster” you just had to use that term. You are a punk and an idiot.

‘Don’t blame us for sending bad legislation up there packed with poison pills like killing Medicare that we know there’s no chance of passing! It’s all the senate and those danged Democrats and their awareness that passing the things we approve of would be political suicide given how vastly unpopular they are with the general public.’

“…Ryan’s response to everyone who is dissatisfied with Washington is simple:
the Republican House has been working tirelessly to get legislation
passed, but the Senate keeps stonewalling everything…”

I love how the GOP wants to claim the mantle as the party of “responsibility” and yet when do they ever take responsibility for their own screw-ups? These are the same people who championed a failed war with Iraq, tax breaks that busted the budget and helped sink the economy. Where’s the mea culpa for any of that?

I am a Republican but Ryan or is blind or stupid, I blame him and the rest of the RINOs

Surprise, surprise, little Eddie Munster thinks they’d be much more popular if the senate voted to abolish Medicare too. This guy’s cluelessness is only matched by his heartlessness. True Randian bull_hitter.
  

I’m surprised he didn’t blame Bush.

who is this “Bush” you speak of?

It’s funny watching Pauly Ryan try to climb out of the mess he got himself and his party into last year!!!

I always thought Ryan was somewhat sane, but now I see he is delusional. I wonder what poll he saw to comment that the house is actually polling better than the Senate.

Blame the Senate? Blame the Democrats? WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PARTY OF PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY??

What if I blame BOTH Democrats and Republicans? What if I blame the Democratic Senate AND the Republican House?

Senator Hairy Reed (D-NV) needs to go.

He just explained why the congressional republicans have higher unfavorability ratings than democrats, its because they think they are perfect, take no responsibility, and always blame the other party.  And, he didn’t even realize it.

Lying comes so naturally for the Repugs.  Or maybe it’s just a good imagination.

He didn’t blame the other party he blamed the other chamber of congress. Maybe he was advocating a unicameral legislation. That whole Connecticutt compromise was a bit silly anyways. I would like to see big states call the shots from now on.

Taking personal responsibility in politics means that you personally blame others instead of letting your SuperPACs do it for you.

And you probably believe the moon is made of cheese.

Reminds me of a sitcom when two individuals who both participated in the scam get into trouble and one points to the other and says “its all his fault” 

The difference here is that its meant to be funny on the sitcom, in real life its just a pathetic political talking point 

Paul Ryan actually gave a good answer. I’m not saying I necessarily agree with it but considering how local a member of the HOR is compared to a senator and I would assume that senators generally have a lower approval rating than a member of the house. At the same time, I think both houses could take equal share in why congressional approval rating is so low. Deflecting from this by blaming someone else is a big reason for it as well.

How many Bills could the House pass if they had to get 261 votes every time?   (60% of 435)

More than hairless Reid can get passed in the senate

If it is it explains why Newt wants to go there so bad.

Paul Ryan should blame the Founding Fathers for devising such a system.

 Not sure, but I hear he hangs around with a guy named “DICK”.

Is Pelosi on record saying her #1 goal is for Boehner to fail?

I noticed you’ve ignored the fact that the Senate has a constitutional obligation to pass a budget. But hey, it’s a small thing right?

No, but neither is Cantor.

It’s simple. The bills get to the Senate where they STOP!

If the Democrats don’t get their way, they don’t negotiate, they hold up the vote (or statewide, they leave the state).

It’s damn well about time Republicans start broadcasting that fact, and not wait for the Obama Mainstream Media to do it – because they’re doing doing their best to cover that very fact up.

One ploy they use is conflating their identification of the problem as “Congress” rather than “the Senate”, where all the progress is actually stalled.

http://www.proactivepolitics.blogspot.com

And in addition, the same public has only a 10% approval rating of itself for electing these ineffectual bumbling corporate lackies in the first place.

There he goes again! ‘Ol Paul Ryan trying to deflect b lame to someone else. No! The current 112th Congress holds all the blame for the economy and poor jobs performance as the House controls taxes, the budget and legislation, not the Senate. Paul Ryan is the poster boy for what ails the House. 
Here’s the bottom line. The affluent not only should, but must pay more in taxes to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and Income taxes. It’s the Congress, who over the years have allowed the richest American’s numerous deductions, deferrals, depreciation’s and exceptions to what can be taxed at what rate. The average American working for wages will pay taxes on $106,800. The average wage earner will not make more than that. The richest Americans get to use sophisticated Accountants and lawyers to maneuver their income for lower taxation. The average Joe does not have that ability or capability. Romney paid and effective rate of 13.7% in taxes on 21.7 million dollars in 2010. Every source of income Romney earned from every source should have been taxed as ordinary income. Had that been done, Romney would have paid much more. This Congress and every previous Congress are at fault for allowing the richest of the rich to parlay their millions into even more millions on the backs of the average Joe. There should be no exceptions, deductions or exemptions to individuals,except to those on Social Security and it’s that Social Security amount received that should be exempted from taxes of any kind. Tax returns today have numerous adjustments, exemptions, qualifications, credits and exceptions to different sources of funds, it’s no wonder tax lawyers and accountants have job security. Every adjustments, exemptions, qualifications, credits and exceptions are on page one of the tax return. All sources of income no matter the source should be taxed at ordinary rates and Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid should receive taxes based on that same amount. American’s should hold their own Congress person and Senator to task to change the modus operandi in taxation.  

 That system was not designed to institutionalize duplicitous ineptitude, which is what we’ve gotten from the Marxist-Democrats.

 She just implemented policies to that end.

Of course, if the President’s policies take us to a central government-style Marxism, where he can play Junta Leader, then having him fail will be everyone not on the Democratic Welfare Plantation’s goal!

Democracy is dead…Americans are ignorant and apathetic…we are
completely screwed if you think that by being engaged in politics and
voting will actually help. Now here’s an idea-blog about it! That will
help get your policy choices through! Yeah-that’s it! I will choose a
side, blame my opponents for everything that is “wrong,” and let my
party leaders fill my head with more divisive crap bent on skewing my
perspective towards nominal values, rather than creating policy choices
that are produced through collaborative efforts… I will paint my face
BLUE or RED and run around in the streets chanting and rooting for my
team-like my part was an NFL Football Franchise!

The republic is dead just like my will to give a crap anymore. Now if
you’ll excuse me Spongebob is on and Patrick Star is about to do something
stupid-silly fool still believes his opinion matters to his leaders!

There are more candidates on the right that wish to simplify the tax code. I agree there are way too many loopholes. a simple easy to understand tax code is necessary. A simple tax code is not something many Democrats have a platform for. 

“This Congress and every previous Congress are at fault for allowing the richest of the rich to parlay their millions into even more millions on the backs of the average Joe.”

Just curious, how does letting people keep more of their own money allow the rich to make more millions off the backs of the average Joe. they are not taking the Average Joe’s money (unless the average Joe gives it to them for a product or service), the average Joe still gets any government programs they qualify for, even if the gov’t can’t afford it (they just print money). I am just not sure how the left comes up with this. Just curious is all. 

Ryan and the House GOPers keep repeating this, but the House doesn’t get to mandate what the rest of the government does. Just like they’ve had to do from the very inception of Congress, the House has to meet the Senate halfway. It’s called compromise. 

What Boehner and Ryan are doing is as obvious as it is cynical. They pass bill after bill that they know has zero chance of passing and then they blame the Senate for not taking up their crackpot ideas. If they were serious about jobs, for example, they would pass a bill that has only the provisions that the White House, Democrats and Republicans agree on without any extra filler. Instead, they want to play politics and either keep their vote as a bargaining chip or refuse to vote on any moderate measure to try to tank Obama. 

I’m starting to get a real sense that the entire Donahue clan had trouble passing 2nd grade. What was it, Spats/Gloves? Not enough time for the schoolings or crystal meth? 

Actually it was. Read about the Connecticut Compromise. That’s exactly why they came up with such a system.

Paul Ryan for president a real leader not a speech reader!

 All parts of Congress are not equal. I’d like to see approval ratings separately for the d-cRAT socialist-controlled Senate (which has violated the law by not passing a budget in well over 3 years) vs. the Repub-controlled House, which has passed dozens and dozens of bills to help create jobs, help (slightly) reign-in the d-cRAT spending, support the Keystone XL pipeline constriction, reform out-of-control entitlements, passed budgets as required by law, etc., ALL OF WHICH HAVE BEEN trash-canned by dingy-harry reid in the Senate.

Could be why every photo opt I see of this guy,he’s always got that “My dog did what to the neighbors leg?” facial expression.LMAO!!!!!!!

Hey,Great to see the unstable T-bagger made it back to posting,I was becoming bored!!!

Ryan and his ilk are such assclowns.Austerity and neoliberalism type legislation is not what america wants or needs.Feed the rich while decimating the poor and middle class.Destroy all socilal saftey nets,while making sure corporate america and wall st pay little or no taxes,have little or no regulation,be able to pollute our food ,water .and air with zero liability.Ryan’s idol is the narcissistic lowlife puke ayn rand,the true moocher class.Is there any wonder why anyone would support this legislation.Ir you need more proof look what austerity and neoliberalism is doing too Greece.

 The plan was never to abolish Medicare. It was designed to take an adult approach such as reigning in entitlements for those age 55 and under as well as upper income recipients. I dont think Americans such as the favorite of the 99%… Mr Buffett, should be receiving medicare or SS. I think that seems a pretty sane compromise. No one is calling for Granny to get pushed over the cliff.

Or in the case in Wisconsin the Democrats just leave the state like cowards !!!

Norbits is yor idle ayn rand also?Do you like the feudal system?Pukes like ryan couldn’t get elected without people like you.

I totally agree, he has made himself radioactive and the biggest fool on the House of Representatives!!

Can someone please explain to Mr. Ryan what a filibuster is?? His Republican buddies in the Senate are breaking records, stopping legislation and hurting the country by how many times they used it!!

Mr. Ryan, no one is buying your Sh*t!!

Real leaders accept responsibility, it’s that simple.  

I have hope there there might be a few in congress who are not OWNED by the Elite, but I don’t even trust that. Congress does essentially NOTHING that is important. They seem not to care that Mr. Obama is a FRAUD (even his posted birth certificate is a joke).
So it seems, they have been TOLD that the USA MUST be flushed down the toilet for the sake of the upcoming New World Order and that if they don’t want to “have an accident”, they need to comply.

 Yep and Obama has not owned anything ,  and the dnc ,  senate is still stuck in blame GWB mode

Liberals crack me up ,  they keep talking about filibustering house,  obstructionist republicans and GWB driving us into the ditch.   It has been over 1000 days since there was a passed budget…  The republicans didnt get a small majority till 2008…   They owned most of the 2nd term of Bush and did nothing to improve the economy or win the wars……but now they have the balls to blame the r’s.  If your “dear leader” BHO would stop campaigning ,  since he has been campaigning since elected, and actually own his job , take responsibility and accomplish all the BS he said he was going to do to get elected  (  remember all that Hope and CHANGE)  maybe we wouldnt be so bad off. But instead he has politicized everything ,  pandered and spent spent spent to buy votes. If he is re elected which i am sure with the medias bias it will happen,  cant wait to see him blame bush for 4 more years…..   face it he sucks

 What a bunch of idiots…they filibuster everything and then blame Obama when nothing gets passed..Of course their constituents arent the brightest bulbs on the tree so they can get away with this crap,,
There are two things rilghties cant understand or accept…they lost the Presidential election and a black man is in the white house..

You cant fight their hate and stupidity..

Yes it is Bush fault…that is a fact…

I have absolutely never seen a more fearful, hateful and destructive group than the right wing crackpots that currently rule the GOP..There is absolutely nothing they will not say or do..and they are totally resistant to logic and reason..

Boy, sure seems MediaMatters has been creating a lot of user accounts this week.  Too bad most readers of this site have a comprehension level above 2nd grade and can recognize BS when they read it.

Too bad your facts are twisted the dems were in control of the senate for 4 years of his presidency and the house 2 years…. they could of done something but they did not and now BHO has ran the show for 2 years owning everything and now he still has the senate and where is the budget?   His budget last year his own party didnt vote for so how do you blame the republicans?  as a vet you think you would expect more from  your president

 looks like you have a lot of hate and stupidity in your posts on here.  Blind allegiance to this president seems to be a disease to the Obamabots… and that is pretty stupid.

 another example

Tony you  are obviously a crackpot as your posts have shown..

 The absolute hate and sheer stupidity of the right wing crackpots is really amazing..they told us from day one their goal was to cause Obama to fail,.,they spent all their time spreading hateful nasty lies about him and now complain when he attacks them in return ..
Record number of fillibusters and open wishing for his failure and people like Tony comparing him to the leader of North Korea..sick and disgusting people that hate Obama more than they love their country and love a President who send thousands to die for lies in Iraq..
I just cant understand why they are so filled with hate..

Well if being a retired vet, and independent and not in love with BHO or any president is a crackpot…. I will be one would rather think for myself then let MSNBC/NBC/CNN  or FOX fill my gray matter for me…………. But it appears you and Chris Matthews are one in the same and get tingles in your legs over BHO so you are  pretty blind to reality already

I always wonder how many post on this site by righties who are just old geezers, filled with resentment, whose time has come and gone and who wish it were 1950 all over again..when women stayed at home and blacks “knew their role.”

 44 and white here… i am guessing since you are bringing race into it you are mid 60′s and a minority

 Oh and calling Bush, stupid a liar and a monkey was ok for 8 years…..  you are really a hypocrite……

As usual your facts are wrong..

Pretty nasty insult sir. You should be ashame of insulting people you don’t even know.

It’s not hate.  It’s reality.  We want him to fail because he is a Marxist Socialist.  No room in the land of the free for the free loaders.

He’s acting like a Soros Troll, paid to infuse hate and emotion into any and all discussions.  It’ from the handbook of the recently Marxist.

Leave the conservative alone.  He has a voice too and your insults continue to be disturbing.

You are more than likely spewing the nonsense you heard on MSNBC.  Liberals seem to not be able to think for themselves and just repeat the lie, repeat the lie, repeat the lie.

Man you are wasting everyone’s time with the continuous stream of insults.

Tony our illustrious potantate has never had a job in his life other than speaking,  He has no ability for critical thinking, decision making or strategic planning.  He’s flatly a socialist and wants America to be the new Europe.

It will never happen and he is failing fast which is why he is constantly campaigning.  The alternative for him if he doesnt win, which he wont, is going back to community organizing on the south side of Chicago.  Reminds me of a song.  Bad Bad Barack Brown.

Ryan is wrong.  The media is wrong.  Everyone is wrong.  

Congress’s low approval is a direct result of citizen disapproval of all the lame bills that have passed in the past several years that really created the mess that we are in.  It wasn’t Bush, Clinton or even Obama.  It was Congress who passed the Community Development Act, increased Fannie and Freddie and then the bailouts.

Everything that has happened was caused by bi-partisan Congress that created  the opportunity for massive system failures at all levels.

We the people would have never supported the Community Development Act, the growth of bad loans, the inept review and controls, all in the name of fairness.   It’s never fair when the 50% of us who actually pay taxes are forced to contiinue to pay for the sins of others.    

 Although I am sorry that the Eastern Coast suffered a bad hurricane last year. I found it very hypocritical that Paul went to his Governor and asked when was his district going to receive FEMA money. This is the same guy who said that any money’s such as disaster relief would need to be balanced out with money being taken from somewhere else in the budget.

I know who Obama is but have absolutely no idea who your Obmamba and Ommamba are?Dyslexia or are you simply addled?

filabuster, if that don’t work then filabuster, if that don’t work filabuster, and then sit back and be smug about how nothing ever gets done 

He fit the bill to a tee.

 Of course the House Republican’s plan abolished Medicare, replacing it with an inadequate voucher system that would impoverish seniors that Republicans called “Medicare”.

The quickest way to abolish both Medicare and Social Security is to means test it, where they can thereby be denigrated as “welfare programs” 24/7 on Fox and hate radio in preparation to abolishing them.

Rather than the image of granny being pushed off the cliff we’ll be subjected to images of granny pulling up for her liposuction treatments in a limo and grandpa getting his taxpayer-subsidized Viagra in order for Republicans to justify fulfilling their decades long dream of abolishing them both.
 

I’ll carry that statement a step further if you please…
We as citizens of this great Republic, abdicated our duty as the true governing body, and as stewards of it’s enduring legacy….by allowing this unConstitutional power struggle for supremacy,through apathy.

Since you are making stuff up, why didn’t you include Kenyan Muslin with no birth certificate?

Thanks for your unbiased viewpoint Ms Hannity.

You need a nap because the more that you comment the more foolish you become.

 First explain why dems lie about what can be fillerbusted. Just this morning White House chief of staff Jack Lew said “You can’t pass a budget in the Senate of the United States without 60 votes and you can’t get 60 votes without bipartisan support,”

Bullsh*t !

” That’s not accurate. Budgets only require 51 Senate votes for passage, as Lew — former director of the Office of Management and Budget — surely must know.”
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/02/wh-chief-of-staff-errs-on-senate-budget-rules/

The dems have not passed a budget in over 1000 days. They blame republicans for gridlock and claim the debt ceiling deal was their budget.
http://thehill.com/blogs/on-the-money/budget/206085-senate-democrats-claim-they-did-pass-a-budget

Even if you believe this nonsense why did they not pass a budget when they controlled everything ? Even the debt ceiling fiasco that is blamed on republicans could have been avoided if dems had passed it instead of waiting for the republican takeover of the house.
They did not for the same reason they did not pass a budget .They did not want to be held accountable.  The republicans have at least come up with plans. The dems just criticize and call them extreme. Liberals and the media then agree that republicans are not serious and THEY are the problem. What a joke. Obama had his budget plan voted down 97-0 . He should be taken seriously ?

   You can not come to a compromise if only one side is showing their hand. If it was the senate passing bills and the house laughing and not voting on them I am sure liberals would still blame republicans.

I am also amazed at libs blaming republicans for trying to obstruct government. They do not agree with the dems and only use tactics that both parties have used before.  Yet when dems in Wisconsin ran away because playing by the rules would still be a loser for them , libs loved it.

 it is the norm now if you don’t idolize the Obama you are an idiot or racist…. If you have any morals that don’t agree with popular culture ( contraception)  you are treating women poorly….    When a president can’t run on his record this is what you get …. 

Well, you may have a point on the budget, but I was referring to legislation in general!!

Also, there are a few proposals that Republicans are blocking that they have supported in the past, such as infrastructure!!

And speaking of Wisconsin, Gov. Walker wants to use the state’s share of the bank settlement regarding fraudulent mortgages to balance the budget instead of helping the state’s home owners!!

Or just an elitist wannabe snob, or unpaid intern for MediaMatters.

 What is unconstitutional about it?
It is easy to say that things are unconstitutional, just like it is easy to throw any other word around without concern for accuracy or reality.
I say this PUBLIC power struggle is exactly what the Constitution intended to create. Our political future is determined by the constant struggle between the left and the right, as it should be.

 Contraception is merely a matter of popular culture?
It would be just as valid to say Creationism is science.

 Marxist Socialist is a hate term, not the reality of the situation.

When Democrats controlled the House, the Senate Republicans used the filibuster to block everything. Blame yourselves for not getting anything done. Your party is broken between the Burkians(large government republicans) and the libertarians(small government Republicans). Your party is trying to institute an austerity program for the poor and working class, while you resist taxes on the wealthy and breaking up the banks who brought this economic downfall on us. It was easy to institute the austerity programs on south Americans, but when it hits closer to home it becomes more of a problem, just as it is in Europe. Austerity programs brought revolution to the South Americans when the authoritarian dictators popped up, supported by us. They now are recovering and we are beginning the fight against the capitalist who wish to turn us into third world full of share croppers.

That’s not entirely fair; a couple of them made it into the third grade, but it took them so long their driver’s licenses came thru so they dropped out in hopes of thrilling career in hauling toxic waste.

Not to mention that a voucher system — whether in health care, education, &c. — effectively steers tax dollars into the hands of private contractors or, in this case, the insurance industry.

Every time you hear a conned-servative sycophant talk about “choice” or “privatization” or a dozen other weasel-words, first thing you do is hide your wallet. They abhor “taxation” but praise redistribution of more wealth to the wealthy like it was tithing. 

 Republicans do not have a problem with an infrastructure plan. They just differ on how to pay for it.

” After Republicans blocked Obama’s infrastructure plan, the president’s Democratic allies immediately killed a competing GOP infrastructure plan that would have extended existing highway and transit spending programs and paid for the spending with a $40 billion cut in unspent funding for other domestic programs. The White House opposed the measure over its spending cuts and provisions that would block recent clean air rules and make it harder for the administration to issue new rules. ”

Where did I mention Walker ? The subject is stopping legislation and filerbusters. Republicans play by the rules and dems do not.

And if you want to talk about Walker ….. then compare how Wisconsin was doing financially when  he first got in and how it is doing now. What’s his favorable rating …..  then and now ?

Where do you get THAT supposed constitutional obligation? 

The Constitution requires this (in article I, s.9, c.7):

“No money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.” 

See the words? “appropriations” and “statement of account”.

The only BUDGET obligation is on the president, & it’s not from the Constitution, it’s from a 1921 act that requires it. An act is supposed to be in accord with the Constitution, but lots of legislation isn’t, & where the Supreme Court says legislation isn’t constitutional, that’s how legislation gets struck down. 

To quote you – “Buy hey”, I’m certainly willing to shown wrong; just show me. 

If the Constitution had been followed, there would be no debate, public or otherwise.
You believe mandates  are legal, no? There are constraints on all branches of government…of which all members have taken an oath to uphold.

They have exceeded their authority, abdicated their sworn duties, encroached
on our liberties, usurped powers not delegated to them, in the name of what?

Power over us, it’s citizens. If you can not concede this simple truth, I would say you are woefully misinformed.

 The Constitution is what requires that there be public debates on all matters of importance. Rejecting that simple concept shows that you do not respect the Constitution. You use it as a symbol of what YOU think is right without understanding its true purpose.

Just a guess … the “g” stands for geezer?

Your hasty indignation is not more appropriate, and likely less so, than RI’s speculation. Other than “righties who are just old geezers, filled with resentment …” who exactly is being either identified or insulted?

Surely, you must read many of teh same resentful and sarcastic posts that the rest of us do. 

This post and moment in time would be the first I’ve ever seen … and I’ve seen tens of thousands … where anybody suggested that Bush (I or II) was ever called “a monkey.”  So, where’s that come from?  Show us.

Pathetic.

” When one guest said that he had never heard George Bush called “an arrogant white boy” in public, Bartiromo immediately jumped in by bringing up Erin Burnett’s famous gaffe calling George Bush a monkey.

“Actually, didn’t Erin Burnett call George Bush, when he was a sitting president, a monkey? On this program,” Bartiromo said. ”

After Obamacare….I side with the GOP on being wary of allowing ANYTHING the Devilcrats like pass in  the House.

I blame republicans for all the problems and righteously so, they have played the do it our way and only our way for the entirety of this Presidents term, I consider them to be terrorists for the way they have held hostage anything that they perceive as being good for the nation.Well they made the deals and now they are going to be petulant children about being held to account and Ryan is setting the “blame anyone but the republicans” theme for this election.

 There is no honesty in your response, you hated Obama and the democrats before Health Care Reform and will hate them long after you have been saved from a harsh and painful death by Obamacare.

As to the Senate having to pass a budget by law, to quote Eliza Doolittle, “Show me!”

 Keep up the required by the party use of terms, your angry and instead of directing it where it belongs you do as your told by your conservative overlords and turn false scorn and hate on democrats and a President who are not at fault, go pay your Becktoad fees and prostrate yourself before the images of the Church of Conservatism on Faux. Grovel and beg at the alter of republican hate.

Thank you! It’s true.

 So are you,,,,and I share my portion of the guilt for this and I am glad that I do it from a choice, not as mandate of the religion that conservatism has become for people like…..YOU.

Yup! We’ll send some garbage to the senate knowing no one would ever pass them so we can say “see the Dem Senate is not doing anything its their fault vote for us in November”. Needless to say if they had the Senate they wouldn’t pass those toxic proposals either. They would be booted out of the Senate and House in a heartbeat if they did!

They sure have distanced themselves from him. Notice how not a single Republican Tea Partier Candidate has mention GWB as a role model or party success! Wonder why?

 Plenty of search engines will lead you to fact that the American people hold republicans more at fault (for the problems) than democrats, try to not be so stupid when the facts are readily available and very clear, even conservative polls show the people blame republicans first.

 There is “simplifying the code” and then there’s “conservatively rigging it”, AGAIN.

real people see the need to UN-DO the 13,000 page tax code conservatives have enacted, they got a code in 1995 of about 2200 pages and by 2009 had grown it to more than 15,000 pages.

We have a tax code that is screwed up and not working and that is what conservative republicans did with their control of Congress, they screwed everything up and twisted it to benifit the few over the many with not even a nod towards the constitutional mandates of meeting the common good and ensuring domestic tranquility.

 its revisionist history in the making, giving them credit for having “good” imaginations (vs creative imaginations) is just to much of a reach. Your right about the lying though, they practice it till it comes naturally. Healthcare for poor people, BAD and EVIL. Rich people and corporations paying their taxes, BAD and EVIL. Transferring Americas wealth off shore GOOD. Repealing and removing ethical compliance and anti-corruption measures, GOOD.

They espouse these and many other contradictions and complain when people do not take it as Gospel from GAWD.

 He went along with the UNITARY EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY from the Confederate Constitution garbage of the Bush administration.

No kidding… they compromise like my wife does.
I said we should get a dog; she said we should get a cat.
So we compromised and got a cat.

 Conservative rats do love the cheese.

Although you think you’re psychic with your  assumptions…you are psycho with your  conclusions.
I disliked him before I hated him.

Hate to break it to you, gsp, but I think that’s called “projection.”

If Herman Cain had actually won the nomination, their heads would’ve exploded, huh.

I find myself agreeing with a large percentage of your post, AliveStillKicking.
In this one as well.

It’s the straight talk that does it for me. :-)

 The Dems idea of compromise is the same as a pickpocket’s.   They reach into the taxpayer’s pocket, remove $100 that they have no right to do, and then offer to put $50 back, if we act the way they want.  How do you compromise with a thief?   Take a club and break it over his head so he won’t come back.

 While I detest Obama, I am thankful that finally we are able to get the truth about Dems  They lie when they are running for office, acting like taxcutters, and small but efficient govt politicians.  Once they get power, they spend and tax and regulate like never before seen.  And when the next election comes up, they will once again, run as tho they are conservatives and govern as tho they are Soviets.   Thank you Obama for removing the mask so that the people can see the depth of your depravity.

 The Constitution was designed to restrain govt, not to require public debates.   A free and unfettered PEOPLE are what articulates a robust public debate.  A powerful overweening govt is what destroys and stifles a public debate.

 Like Chris Matthews, you must have been in a coma for the entirety of the Bush administration.

There are certain steps to be adhered to, when matters of national import are to be discussed,and voted on, then ratified.
What we see today and for many years, is a blind eye to these simple steps.
Congress, and Presidents of all persuasions have removed or bypassed your input in this process, no?

Where is our voice? And when we make our wishes well known, do they listen?
I contend NO!
All Parties give lip service to your ideas, or in their elitist mentalities bypass you altogether. Where are the checks and balances required in the Constitution, as they in their elitist wisdom bypass YOU?

I have great respect for the Constitution, all this document does is provide necessary checks and balances of Government, to protect every individuals rights equally.

I see clearly the steps taken to remove those checks on our liberties….the question here is: “Do you see clearly.”

Paul Ryan is an Ayn Rand devotee.  That alone should scare the hell out of anybody making less than $50K a year in this country.

RepublicanTea Party amnesia and tyical deflection to the otherside for their failure. GWB is held in such high regard that they have distanced themselves from his legacy and not one candidate has refered to him as a success. What does that say about them?

Birther delusion and conspiracy thats gonna get the Republican Tea Party back to the Presidency in November! Yup that will do it!

When it comes to December you will hear nothing but crickets and there will be more obstruction which doesn’t exsist! They still won’t help fix things. Ryan will come up with another excuse to use.

 Do I see clearly?
Yes.
I am not blinded by paranoia.

The Senate won’t even vote a Yes or No on Bills sent to them by Congress?  THAT is only playing politics, and nothing more.  Also, the Senate has avoided for over 1,000 days to produce a budget as required by the Constitution.  Harry Reid said that it’s unnecessary to produce a budget?  Since when does Harry Reid get to decide on what Constitution rules he gets to follow?

Speaking of Delusions, I DARE you to go to this Official White House birth certificate site:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2011/04/27/president-obamas-long-form-birth-certificate
Zoom in and see the LAUGHING smiley face on the “A” of the “Alvin” signature and try to come up with a reasonable explanation how somebody puts such things on a REAL document.
Yeah, that Smiley Face is LAUGHING at YOU because you are deluded into thinking O’Bummer is NOT a FRAUD!

Your confused thats how Fox and gang operate! You’ve heard the lies so often you believe! See works both ways and to what point!

Yeah! No double standards for you!

Aah yeah you got me laughing! My side is hurting! That’s your justification. Ever heard of the statement “extrodinary claims require extrodinary evidence” thats not extrodinary by any means! How do you know how Alvin signs his name. Got any other examples of his writing? Was the pen used functioning properly? Did the ink smear? Your smiley face is a lame point which goes back to birther delusion and conspiracy insanity!

Paul Ryan doesn’t bother me. I’m sure he’s hypocritical at times but at least he doesn’t talk crazy like other Tea Partiers.

To be fair I love cheese too.

So it was only conservatives who have changed the tax code. So there was never a liberal involved. I guess the democrats did not have a tax cheat that was brought up on ethics charges in charge of the ways and means committee? Ever heard of Charlie Rangel? 

Lastly. You do know that the House Ways and Means Committee is the one that writes the tax code. And you do know that whichever party is in control of the House gets a majority in the committee. From 1995-2009 Democrats had control of the house and had control of the Ways and Means. That means, Democrats wrote the tax code.

In fact, Ol’ tax cheat Charlie Rangel himself was the ranking member from 96-07 and the chairman from 07-10 (until he was forced out due to ethics violations)

Nice try, but it was your party who was in charge of the tax code. Next time do some homework. 

Your inane questions PROVE that you ARE AFRAID to look. No surprise. Just put your head back in the sand (or up that dark location) and don’t worry about the GUY doing something to your rear end.

First you assume I didn’t look at it. I did and have seen it before. Clearly your hate fuels your delusion and need to be derogatory with your posting.

“…I would assume that senators generally have a lower approval rating….” Why? You know what they say about ASS-U-ME?

Your “hairless” application is not nearly funny. It’s more like pathetic as is your “…more than…” statement. Its akin to, maybe, a twelve-year-old’s reply.

Since you have no skill at discerning images such as cartoon faces, DO NOT go near any such IQ test. It will only humiliate you, if that’s possible, since your IQ is sub-sub-sub par, akin to a 3-year-old.

But don’t take it personal. You seem to have plenty of others of your same IQ equivalent in the Democrat Party (or ought I say, Communist Party)

Yawn! Oh, please, go look up MARXISM, would you? Then, look up Fascism and you might see a little touch of relevance to extreme conservatism there. Is it MARXIST for the Constitution to use the term “… for the COMMON GOOD”? Oh, my! “Duplicitous ineptitude” is this now an addition to the Republican mantra? Interesting term to be used by bad liers.

Of course, there are NO REPUBLICANS ON THAT WELFARE PLANTATION. Ha!!!
There is that Marxist term again, rearing its ugly head – “for the greater good”. Come on, it’s in there your can’t just ignore it!

Boy, oh Boy, am I glad you said all that. I hope it will penetrate their grey matter!!! You think? Oh, well. We must keep trying!

“Just curious, how does letting people keep more of their own money allow the rich to make more millions off the backs of the average Joe.”

Is this reasonable…by the wealthiest not paying a fair amount of taxes, a greater percentage of the taxes that the middle class pay must go to services, military and running the government etc.?

Have you scheduled your ink blot test yet? 

I’ve been a registered Republican for 40yrs. Your Republican Tea Party crazy train is about to stop at “Reality”. I recommend you get off. Don’t go for that ink blot test like the lady asked they are likely to put a straight jacket on you. Try posting more rationally it can be rewarding!

I’m not assuming anything. Wouldn’t be surprised if the lower house is hated by its constituents than the upper house, but this is not likely. At the same time, with a 9% approval rating, doubt if either house is popular.

Ah I belive the word your searching for Marge is appellation not application. Hows it feel to be one of those left behind?

Sunofagun.  One of the first times I didn’t do at least a Google search first. One more lesson in the bank. Credit where credit is due.
