Skelos: Ryan Pick ‘A Wise Choice’ (Updated)

Buster, you really like shoving things up people’s rear-ends, that’s how you like it now doesn’t it, you fruit cup.

Once again the Senate Democratic quote looks like it was written by a child. They do not even name a single Republican, including Skelos, just refer to this nameless, faceless boogie-man conference and think that resonates? Idiots. 

We now know why Ryan accepted the VP invitation!!
******************
It’s because Wisconsin electoral law allows him to continue running for Congress, which he apparently is going to do.
If a Wisconsin House rep. runs for VP or POTUS, s(he) can also run for Congress.

So Mr. Paul has the safety of knowing he likely can keep his House seat, if the R-R national ticket loses.

This is similar to LBJ’s manipulation of the Texas law, that allowed him to run for the Senate while running as VP in 1960.

I just got the e-mail below from Ryan’s Dem. Congressional opponent, and only when I read this did I know that Ryan can run for both offices.

Has the msm mentioned this at all?

Hi, I’m Rob Zerban. Along with President Obama and Vice President Biden, I have the unique privilege of being the other candidate who gets to defeat Paul Ryan this year.
That’s because despite running for Vice President, Paul Ryan is still running for Congress in Wisconsin. And I’m his progressive opponent.
I’ve been preparing for over a year now. I have a great team and raised over a million dollars in grassroots donations — more than all of Ryan’s opponents in the last 10 years combined. But to finish the job, I need your help.

Paul Ryan supports ending Medicare. I support Medicare for All.

Paul Ryan supports lowering taxes on the rich. I want the rich to finally pay their fair share.

Paul Ryan thinks the way to create jobs is tax giveaways for Big Oil, Wall Street, and other big corporations. I’m a small businessman who fights for the little guy.

Paul Ryan is pro-life. I am pro-choice. Tell me when to stop…

The point is — Wisconsin voters finally have a competitive Democrat running against Paul Ryan. A bold progressive. And with Ryan now ignoring local voters, 2012 is the perfect moment to defeat him for good.

It’s been exciting to work with Progressive Change Campaign Committee members over the past year — standing up for the 99% and fighting back for Medicare. In Congress, I look forward to being your partner as we fight for progressive change. 

Thanks for your support.
Rob Zerban

“…on abortion and women’s health care, there isn’t much daylight between Ryan and, say, Michele Bachmann. Any Republican vice presidential candidate is going to be broadly anti-abortion, but Ryan goes much further. He believes ending a pregnancy should be illegal even when it results from rape or incest, or endangers a woman’s health. He was a cosponsor of the Sanctity of Human Life Act, a federal bill defining fertilized eggs as human beings, which, if passed, would criminalize some forms of birth control and in vitro fertilization. The National Right to Life Committee has scored his voting record 100 percent every year since he entered the House in 1999. “I’m as pro-life as a person gets,” he told the Weekly Standard’s John McCormack in 2010. “You’re not going to have a truce.” …Jonathan Cohn, Six Things to Know About Ryan (and Romney) New Republic******************”NEW YORK (AP) — A vibrator giveaway that attracted long lines in New York City came to an abrupt end when the city told the promoters to pack it up. The Trojan condom company set up “Pleasure Carts” on Wednesday in two Manhattan neighborhoods, and were set to give away 10,000 vibrating sex toys. Nearly 300 people had lined up at each of the hot-dog-style carts.According to the New York Post  the giveaway was interrupted when a city representative told the promoters to shut down because of crowds.”*************************What does Mr. Paul’s extreme position on abortion rights and the Trojan free vibrator giveaway have to do with each other.Well, dear readers, I was just thinking that Paul should support the free giveaways as a safe method of birth control.This giveaway could, if it takes hold , reduce abortions and poverty.The latter because poverty and single mothers are directly linked.I’m going to send a twit to PR, seeking a response.Could Biden ask PR about this at their Oct. debate?

“Federal financial disclosure forms show that last year Ryan, 42, had assets of between $2.1 million and $7.8 million – figures that include a trust valued at between $1 million and $5 million inherited by his wife, Janna, after her mother died in 2010. A disclosure form said Ryan had assets of $479,000 to $1.6 million in 2001…”

So, don’t cry for me Argentina, the Ryans can pay their bills even if PR loses both the VP and the Congressional seat.

PR does have an attractive family, the wife and the children.
