Paul Ryan, aka 'Boehner's Mini-Me', Makes Conditional Demands

[easyt65]

You have to love some of those good old time conservative values that Ryan will bring to America.

Yeah, open borders, abortion at any stage of pregnancy, protection of Sanctuary cities, amnesty...

I don't see why freakin' politicians like Boehner, McConnell, and Ryan just don't go ahead and switch party NAMES so they will match their current allegiance.

Let the teatards nominate their guy

Well, turn him down and put a Freedom Caucus guy in there.
The last thing the American people want is a Congress that works together.
.

- 'F' Conservative Rating
- A Gutierez / Obama / liberal Favorite...
- FOR Open Borders, FOR Amnesty
- FOR Sanctuary Cities
- FOR abortions at any stage of pregnancy
- Wants to scrap the Jefferson Rule
- Demands allegiance without promising he will listen to and represent Conservatives / Conservative values
- Has made it clear he is only taking the position if it does not hurt his own personal future political goals

...and you think making Ryan the new Speaker will unite the party and create a Congress that works together?

Well no, I doubt that he can unite the GOP, which is essentially two parties at this point.

And since that can't happen, trying to return to a functional Congress is probably a pipe dream.
.

Ryan is stepping into a gop hornets nest

He is crazy to even try without assurances from the teatards

I suspect he won't be speaker. it's unfortunate... he might have been a good one. at least, while I agree with none of his economic policies, he doesn't seem to be a typical vile rightwinger. he seems decent....... which is exactly why the wingers won't support him.

to join behind ryan would mean the teatards want to govern. they don't and they never will.

I think Ryan is going to demand a level of cooperation before he accept

I doubt if he will get it

theres a thread on that. Its quite funny.

I'd like to see links that Ryan supports all of these things.

Thanks.

Yet Ryan's policies work against others getting family time

- Paul Ryan tells House Republicans he’s willing to run, if conditions are met

“I hope it doesn’t sound conditional — but it is,” he said, according to members inside the room. He paused after saying the word “conditional,” they said, for effect. Rep. Paul Ryan (Wis.) moved closer to the House speakership Tuesday, telling fellow Republicans that he would consider taking the job if he could be assured that the caucus would unite behind him.

Ryan DEMANDS that the entire GOP pledge allegiance to him and completely support him and his actions as Speaker.
- Boehner did not have this because Boehner never represented his constituents, the GOP base, or his fellow Republican House members...which is why he is being forced out. Ryan is demanding that type of un-wavering support for whatever he does right off the bat.


2. "Paul Ryan Will Run for Speaker–if Conservative Colleagues Stop Being a ‘Problem’"
- Paul Ryan Will Run for Speaker-if Conservative Colleagues Stop Being a 'Problem' - Breitbart

"Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) admitted during a press conference that he was willing to run for Speaker of the House–but only if they met a list of demands of what it would take to get him to run."

By 'STOP BEING A PROBLEM' Ryan means:
- STOP demanding the ACA be repealed.
- STOP demanding Planned Parenthood be defunded
- STOP demanding the Borders be secured
- STOP demanding 'No Amnesty'
- STOP demanding an end to abortions at ANY stage of pregnancy
- STOP demanding the President and Congress adhere to the Constitution
- STOP demanding the Speaker of the House actually FIGHT the party's core values and beliefs, for issues the American people / Conservatives care about, and that the GOP leadership actually do what is best for the nation and people NOT what is best for themselves or the party.

Ryan has already made it clear that he has aspirations of running for President one day, so he is about to take a position that is known for being the END of 'your' political career, and he is trying to 'hedge his bet' - protect HIS OWN future by trying to force the entire GOP to 'shut up and color' and 'faithfully, and unconditionally back him'.

....Oh, and Obama and the Democrats love the idea of Paul being the new Speaker...

Nothing else more needs to be said or known. Ryan should NOT be the new Speaker of the House!

This is a very clever move on his part.....besides...this is what his demands REALLY are:

• He wants broad support across the Republican conference, specifically the endorsement of all the major caucuses.
• He wants House rules changed to overhaul what is known as the "motion to vacate the chair" -- a parliamentary weapon members can use to try and oust a speaker.
• He wants to be able to spend time with his family, and not be on the road as much as previous speakers.

In other words he doesn't want to be speaker and making these demands is an easy out for him. I guess he doesn't have the stones to come right out and just say no thank you.

And he comes out smelling like a rose.
