From his keynote address at the George W. Bush Presidential Center's Tax Policies for 4% Growth conference at the New-York Historical Society.

This guy is one of the Best and Brightest in the Republican Party.

I do like the fact that the only thing the left really can attack Ryan on.....is being a Christian. Anything else they got to say will be basically bullshit and the usual lies where they say they aren't lieing but in all actuality they are lieing. U know......What they Call PC. Thats the Media and the Demos and their Phuncky-Chicken. :grin:

Here Ryan takes down Debbie-Wassermann Schultz while at the same timeproving that the numbers by Obama and the Left were a lie. He does this in less than 2 and half minutes on Fox news. Notice what he calls the Demos Tricks and Mirrors. Then note the Act passed by Pelosi at the end on the Doctors. :wink:

5 Things Mitt Doesn't Want You to Know About Paul Ryan

1. His budget plans include big cuts, and there's ample room for Democrats to continue with their "Romneyhood narrative." The nonpartisan Center on Budget and Policy Priorities estimates 62 percent of Ryan's cuts are to programs for the poor.

2. Ryan's budget proposals have included big changes to Medicare - including gradually replacing the program with a voucher program for private health care, and gradually raising the retirement age. That could scare older Americans, a crucial voting bloc.

3. He voted for the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP. While a lot of other Republicans did too, and it was proposed by the Bush administration, some have viewed it as a rejection of the conservative economic values Ryan and hard-line fiscal conservatives espouse.

4. He's easily pegged as Washington insider. He's been in Congress since 1999, and before that he worked as a congressional staffer. Congressional approval ratings are abysmally low- a recent CBS News/NY Times poll showed that only 12 percent of voters approve of the way Congress is doing its job.

5. This is both a pro and a con to Ryan, depending on who you ask, but he's notably further to the left on the issue of lesbian, bisexual, gay and transgender rights than the base of the party. He broke with a lot of his party to support the Employee Non-Discrimination Act in 2007. He explained his reasoning for the vote in this way: "They [his gay friends] didn't roll out of bed one morning and choose to be gay. That's who they are."

Uh Blad, the topic was Ryan's dismantling of ObamaCare. I don't suppose you would care to watch the video and listen to the ample factual numbers presented there and enlighten us as to how Ryan's analysis was correct.

I didn't think so. As usual, above your pay grade. Oh, and BTW genius, half the country pays no taxes at all. The particularly brackets your chart shows in red actually get checks (EITC) written to them using borrowed money. Keep that in mind.

See this Democrat here Blad. This is the Demo who his Co-sponsoring the Ryan Plan.

WASHINGTON – In an unlikely partnership, Sen. Ron Wyden (http://gov.oregonlive.com/Congress/Ron-Wyden/)joined Rep. Paul Ryan (http://paulryan.house.gov/) on Wednesday in a plan for remodeling Medicare to ensure its long-term future.

The plan that Wyden, a Democrat from Oregon and Ryan, a Republican from Wisconsin, rolled out is a hybrid of earlier ideas, modified and repackaged in a way they hope will soften the partisan political turmoil.

He and Ryan propose maintaining Medicare in its traditional form until 2022, when seniors eligible for Medicare (those now under 55) would be able to choose Medicare or a private health care plan.

In a 13-page blueprint, Ryan and Wyden laid out the principles for an overhaul. There should be "no disruptions for those in or near retirement," the plan says. "Seniors should not be forced to reorganize their lives because of government's mistakes."

There are still many gaps and unanswered questions. Wyden and Ryan believe their plan would be cheaper, but they cannot say how much. They do promise that seniors would not be forced to make up the difference with higher premiums if costs continue to soar. Their plan requires Congress to find a solution.....snip~

This time I will be taking an active Role in going after any of the Main-stream media that wants to put out that false perception. Not to mention any of the same type slanted politicans that think they will get to open their mouth in public and not take any heat.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/08/12/1119290/-Slaying-the-700-Billion-Medicare-Cut-zombie-lie

On 'Obama cuts $700 billion from Medicare'

· Prebuttal: The claim that OBAMACARE cuts $700 BILLION from Medicare is TRUE and the GOOD NEWS is that in doing so, it INCREASES HEALTHCARE FOR SENIORS and AT THE SAME TIME cuts fraud, WASTE and abuse. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office determined that the Medicare provisions in President Obama's health care law would save $700 BILLION over a decade and EXTENDS THE LIFE OF MEDICARE. Extends it EIGHT YEARS.

GOP TP (talking point): Mitt Romney also laid out commonsense reforms that will make good on our promises to today’s seniors and save Social Security and Medicare for future generations.
Rebuttal: The ROMNEY-RYAN plan takes $700 BILLION AWAY FROM SENIORS but does NOT use it to fund HEALTH SERVICES for ANYBODY. Yet Republicans in the House voted to strip that $700 Billion FROM SENIORS ENTIRELY. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates under the ROMNEY-RYAN plan new Medicare beneficiaries will pay more than $1,200 OUT OF POCKET by 2030 and more than $5,900 more by 2050 and SHIFT ADDITIONAL COSTS to seniors by RAISING the eligibility age to 67. This NEGATIVELY impacts today's middle-aged, middle class HARD WORKING Americans while giving the wealthiest 1-percent HUGE TAX BREAKS.

So you're just another govt parasite that costs working people money.Well, i guess if you want to call a recently disabled man who built (with his own money... no gifts, no inheritance, etc.), owned and ran his own printing business for 25 years, employing a small number of people (a job creator, if you will), paying into social security since 1974 a government parasite, that's your right. And that's what i'd expect from you.

Let's assume this defines the legitimate purpose of government. Then taxing the rich and redistributing to the poor is special interested and therefore violates that purpose.If you want to talk about redistribution, you'll have to acknowledge that redistribution goes both ways. If not... explain how the wealthy became wealthy to begin with.

The one is social welfare, the other corporate welfare. These political means of accumulating wealth are both special interested and therefore unconstitutional.

The wealthy generally become wealthy through work and exchange of goods and services. These economic means of generating wealth benefit all.

Yeah. Ya got me, Goose. You girls are making me feel more and more special all the time. Thank you for that, btw. A graph is a graph is a graph. Color is usually added, and i like colors. I'm a graphic artist and color has been a part of my life and my career. But behind the color are the facts. How many times do you have to be told that the Ryan plan sways heavily in favor of the rich (which is never successfully refuted) before you will admit that the plan is an
American FAIL.



Blad. I took a look at the CBPP site that produced the chart, and it appears as one giant partisan coloring book for Democrats. That is how I remembered it, and it has not changed.

Regardless, the Democrats have no plan to fix things. Nada. Nothing. What they have done is accelerated us towards the cliff.

Meanwhile, both Romney and Ryan have embraced plans similar to the only true non-partisan thing out there, the Simpson-Bowles Commission.

We either fix it Blad, or we self-destruct. The Democrats have no solution. I am exceedingly confident that the GOP will push a plan that not only cuts the heck out of spending, but which has everyone paying more.

But as the Democrats have no plan, a pox on them until they put something serious on the table. Ryan has.

"I'm right, you're wrong. End of story."

The only story is that you believe whatever is fed to you. Sound bites aren't going to win this election. Your party is being held accountable for theft.

Explain how stealing 700 billion that seniors paid into their system helps them right when baby boomers are retiring. Go.

Your President said you didn't build that business. Your anger is misdirected.

They worked for it, genius.

You, having said this;



owned and ran his own printing business for 25 years, employing a small number of people (a job creator, if you will), paying into social security since 1974


And then saying this;



If you want to talk about redistribution, you'll have to acknowledge that redistribution goes both ways. If not... explain how the wealthy became wealthy to begin with.


Throws into doubt the validity of you saying this;



owned and ran his own printing business for 25 years, employing a small number of people (a job creator, if you will), paying into social security since 1974


Just sayin'

Alan West was correct, Obama and the Democrats want us to be slaves of the government. A slave is someone who must work for the benefit of another without choosing to do so. By taking money from those who earned it in order to give it to those who did not earn it but simply want it the Obama government is reducing people to slavery.

Paul Ryan is an emancipationist. He wants the people to decide how their money is spent, not some ultra-liberal quasi-socialists sitting in Washington.

Mr. Obama has no problem taking money from the poor. His chief adviser and the defacto POTUS is Valerie Jarret, and she had NO problem taking govt funds from the poor Black people of Grove Parc Plaza to enhance her personal bank account. Get a clue. Do some research.

They know they're lying and don't care. All that matters is keeping power. Don't you dare question their patriotism, however. They will back a failure because they can't admit his policies aren't working. That's how un-American and partisan they really are.

Many in the government are greedy and will prey on it's own people. They don't care and they know the banks have been stealing for years now.

To be honest I am with what Mr. Herman Cain said, just like the Constitution everyone can understand it. Why write laws over 500 pages long that most can't understand? It should be simple enough for an 11th grader to understand and know how it stands. That way people will know what they are voting for.
