QUOTE OF THE DAY
“The Republican Party never has been good at the soft sell, but you can’t say they don’t try. A long string of pitch men, alternating between phony populists (Bush, Reagan, etc.) and pseudo-intellectuals (Phil Gramm, Newt, Ryan, etc.), has tried its damndest to convince you, the Little Guy, that the GOP is really on your side. That Ryan is the latest choice to deliver its message – Serve the Plutocracy and it will reward you! – is puzzling. Here is a guy who can’t even pull off enough of a smile to qualify as a smiling killer, an elected official with so few of the skills native to politicians that the media must pretend he is brilliant in order to give him a redeeming quality. And that will be his ultimate downfall. No matter how often we are told that he is an Intellectual, he lacks the guile to hide what he really is: a Randian hatchet man who learned everything from his privileged upbringing except how to act like he cares about other people.”

Dont usually agree with Gin and Tacos that you post here, on other subjects. He is completely and fabulously saying what I have been trying to say for years. Basically why
do these poor little wannabees think trickle down scraps are acceptable. Great post by the author. Ryan has beautiful eyes , but the Eagles already have that covered. “aint no way to hide those lying ….”. Perfect insight and all his predictions cant come true soon enough for me! Thank You, Ed.

Is it just me or does Paul Ryan look like Eddie Munster to anyone else?

Well, somebody WARM would have made SHMITT look even more dead.
……..oh, wait! The only warm one they have is Crispy Creme Christie, the canned ham of New Jersey.
