Paul Ryan: “I don’t want to be speaker”

Ryan & ObamaAnd then he became Speaker of the House.

Paul Ryan says he doesn’t want to be a presidential candidate.

But for a guy who says he doesn’t want to be a presidential candidate, he’s making a lot of speeches about not wanting to be a presidential candidate.  A certain Bill Shakespeare line comes to mind about now.

The GOP is pretty much already convinced that it’s going to lose the presidency.

If it’s Trump or Hillary, the GOP wants Hillary.

If it’s Cruz or Hillary, the GOP wants Hillary.

They just don’t have the testicles to come out openly and say it.

GOP InvertebrateThe GOP believes Trump or Cruz lose to Hillary.  They’re planning on it.

The GOP is thinking, hell, we may as well lose with “our guy,” whomever “our guy” might turn out to be.

This is American Politics, ladies and gentlemen, politics writ large, and politics writ Establishment.  This is the Old Guard Establishment GOP doing everything it can to ensure one of the Usual Suspects gets into the race.  The GOP mostly consists of an assload of Surrender Monkeys.

GOP RINO FactsFirst the GOP was shocked that Jeb Bush didn’t resonate.  They were sure he was going to walk right into the presidency. Maybe even Mittens.  VP?

Meb Bushney 2016Then each one of their other mealy-mouthed do-nothing empty suits fell by the wayside, including Rick Santorum, Mike Huckabee, Lindsay Graham, George Pataki and Jim Gilmore.  Hell, my dead cat Mose would have had a better chance at president than Jim Gilmore.

Chris Christie, Marco Rubio, Ben Carson, Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, John Kasich, Carly Fiorina, Bobby Jindal, George Pataki, Scott Walker, Rick Perry — they persevered a while longer until it shook out to the final three.

Read carefully what Paul Ryan said on Tuesday:

Count me out: I simply believe that if you want to be the nominee for our party to be the president, you should actually run for it.  I chose not to do this, therefore I should not be considered. Period. End of story.

So what is Paul Ryan really saying?

He’s saying there needs to be a back up plan, and that back up plan should include someone from the Old Staid Establishment GOP.

Who ran for president.

Hey.

Wait.

Wouldn’t that be a Jeb Bush or a Mitt Romney or a Lindsay Graham or a Mike Huckabee or a Jeb Bush or a Jeb Bush?

Hey, what about Jeb Bush?

GOP Fat Cat Old Guard Establishment

You know, I think Jeb Bush might be available.  At a moment’s notice.  He speaks Spanish.  He loves him some illegal immigrants.  Syrians too, I’m sure.  Come one, come all, no background checks, it’s an “act of love.”

But wait.  Paul Ryan said we need a rule.  A new rule.  Delegates, we need a new rule.  A rule that says to be the nominee, you need to have run in the primary.  You need to have been an actual candidate.

Speaking of Paul Ryan, there is the Super Chapter 9.  Ryan wants to go along to get along.  And bail out PUERTO RICO with American tax dollars.

Look, I don’t trust ANY politician any more.  Trusting a politician is a fool’s game and this country is already rife with a sufficient number of Free Cheese Fools.

Charles Krauthammer thinks that Ryan is just trying to rebuild the party early, seeing its destruction in progress.

But the bottom line?  If Paul Ryan pulls the Lucy Football on his own denial, I won’t be gobsmacked.  He’s done it before, he can do it again.  Think: speaker.

P.S.

53% of those polled think Paul Ryan is lying when he says he won’t accept the presidential nomination according to a Fox poll displayed on the Greta Susteren show, Tuesday.

You brought this on yourselves, GOP.

 

Hillary LIED and the mother who said so

First, let’s start with the continuing public lies from Hillary Rodham Clinton.

From BizPacReview.com:

Total blackout on ABC, other networks avoid Benghazi victim’s mom who says Hillary lied to her face

by Tom Tillison

In the March 9 Democratic presidential debate, Univision anchor Jorge Ramos played a clip of Patricia Smith, the mother of Bengazhi victim Sean Smith, saying then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told her the attack that killed her son was the result of an anti-Islam video.

What makes this a “stunning” moment, as described by Newsbusters, is that there has been an almost total blackout on the national networks ABC, CBS and NBC of this charge — particularly at ABC.

Even more stunning, Clinton responded to Ramos by saying the grieving mother was “absolutely wrong.”

Really?  Let’s look.

Who do you think lied?

Hillary Clinton or the mother of a Benghazi victim?

Hispandering: el Debate Democrata

UNIVISION MEXICAN RACISTSIn case you didn’t watch — and I’m guessing you didn’t — you missed out on the Wednesday night Univision/Washington Post Demorat debate, the 8th in the series of Demorat debates.

Held in Miami, Univision took over and broadcast most everything in Spanish on CNN, under “el Debate Democrata, conversacion politica.”

Right.  Because Mexican women are talking about economia numero uno, religion numero dos, and aborto numero tres.

Mexican men are concerned about etica gubernamental numero uno, problemas raciales numero dos, and economia numero tres.

Good of CNN to turn themselves completely over to Univision so that actual Americans who speak English were at a complete disadvantage.

The moderators were the racists Jorge Ramos, Maria Elena Salinas and token female Caucasoid journalista Karen Tumulty of the Washington Post, who mostly remained silent.

Jorge Ramos hammered Hillary Clinton on Obama’s having deported more than 2.5 million ILLEGAL immigrants (most Mexicans) during his tenure.  He called her potentially the next Deporter In Chief.  “Can you promise you won’t deport children and you won’t deport immigrants with no criminal record?  Can I get a yes or no answer?”

Clinton said, “yes, you can.”  Hillary wants to change the laws and “stop the raids, stop the roundups, stop the deporting of people who are living here, doing their lives, doing their jobs and that’s my priority.”

The racist Jorge Ramos had kittens in response and asked the question again and again.  Sanders promised too, of course.

There you go.  Once again Leftists and Demorats deciding just which laws they will or will not enforce, which laws illegals must or must not obey.

If only that mindset translated over to actual living, breathing, lawful American Taxpayers — you know, that 55% of persons in the US who are still stupid enough and cowed enough to pay taxes — as opposed to the 45% who do not.

That was enough for me.  The entire purpose of the Univision debate was to ensure that there was a Demorat confirmation to fellate the Hispanic willy.

I have to hand it to Bernie Sanders.  He is a known quantity and hasn’t much changed his tune for decades.  He is truly a Democratic Socialist.  I can respect Sanders for that.  He’ll tell you what he is and you know what his stances are and will be.  Props to Sanders for having the stones to be honest.

Hillary Clinton was braced with being an lying untrustworthy bitch to the tune of a 37% believability rate.  In response Clinton proffered verbal effluvium, as per normal.

Let me be clear: these two Mexican racists — with their little biclavial token journalista GOWP female sitting next to them — existed in space on Wednesday night only to make sure their Mexican “needs” were met.  In a word: Hispandering.

Why are they racist?  Supremely easy to answer: either everyone is equal or no one is equal.

Aztlan-La-RazaWhen these two racists sit at a moderator’s panel and push agendas specific to only one race — Hispanics (God I hate that word) — and the name of La Raza (translated: The Race, which advocates “reconquista“) even escapes their lips, I know they are racists.

Reverse it: imagine there was a Caucasoid Channel sponsoring the GOP debates and moderators were asking what the candidates could do for whites?

Bernie Sanders is at least honest.  He is what he is.

Hillary Clinton is a lying, plotting, calculating snake of a politician who exists only to line her own pockets and those of her family.  Everyone else — and I mean everyone else — can go to hell.

She will say and do whatever it takes to feather her personal bed.  If that happens to benefit the Demorats, so be it.  But her allegiance lies much more inwards, much more centrally-focused.

I can understand why Hillary is seen as the Establishment candidate and Bernie as the outsider, despite a lengthy career in politics.

For those whose comments will include “I wouldn’t have wasted my time,” I say: never ignore your enemy.

Know your enemy.

Besides: I watched so you wouldn’t have to.

P.S.
Not one mention of the national debt.  Not one mention of how the policies will be paid for other than to “tax the one per-cent.”

As if money simply gets created if one but simply wills it into existence.

Oh, wait; government simply makes the money.
