(662 posts)He is the poster child for all the extremism promoted by the TPARTY and a cold, inhumane legislator who stood by while 300 mn ppl suffered to assist the KOCHS in killing Obama's presidency. He is a snake in sheeps clothing, although he has revealed how low he can sink. I just hope the AARP and seniors are paying attention. the FEDERAL INSURANCE CONTRIBUTION program known as SS has been under siege by the GOP/WALL STREET THUGS for 10 years or more. And with Romney and Ryan in the WH, we all lose.

(28 posts)Isn't this just the voting profile of every House Republican. It's really awful, but its standard fare these days.
Ryan is much worse because of his plans for our future. Much worse.
