Ryan, IMO, is a low IQ sociopath with some very dangerous and sadistic ideas. nt ladjf Nov 2012 #6
Eric Cantor won't be happy with Ryan muscling him out of line... brooklynite Nov 2012 #8

He'd be a total and complete disaster, a true believer in Ayn Randism who would destroy the whole thing if he couldn't control it.

Let the Republican Party expose itself and it will be destroyed.

Because after all, the reason the rethugs lost big in the election is they were not radical right enough!

This is the wisdom of freepers, Rush and all those freakin idiots signing secession petitions on the internets.

Let Ryan get elected, and we'll just watch the tea party implode from within when the "Speaker" signs on a tax increase.

Do they really need a backward hat-wearing dumbbell to lift some barbells?

the Speaker of the House is second in line to the presidency. If, Gods and Goddesses forbid, anything should happen to President Obama AND Vice President Biden, the SptH would be our next president.

Boehner would be bad enough, in fact he would be a catastrophe. But Ryan? Unthinkable.

Even in jest, the idea is too frightening to contemplate.

How could Paul Ryan ever be considered as a possible presidential candidate or speaker of the house when he is completely ignorant about the make up of this country. Paul, 79% of the population
of this country lives in urban areas. You have to try remember this fact. Yes! 79% Does that come as a surprise?
Paul, it's arithmetic. You know the stuff you learned in public school. By the way, urban areas are inhabited not only by black people but whites, Asians, Latinos,Jews, Christians,agnostics, atheists, straights and gays and every other type of citizens. Now you know!
