Paul Ryan is Needed as Speaker

Paul Ryan is a senior Congressman who is Republican and Speaker of the House of Representatives. This is very important for the success of the Trump revolution. Speaker Ryan is experienced in creating legislation, in putting forward cohesive budgets, and in helping the people of his Janesville, Wisconsin, district play a very big role in guiding the nation. He is being threatened by outsiders like former Governor Sarah Palin and a host of other enemies who want to use the primary process to deny him a spot on the Republican ballot in November. The loss of Speaker Ryan to the nation, the Congress and the people of Janesville district would be a very big mistake.

If Mr. Ryan is denied the Republican spot in the primary, his challenger will have unseated a Speaker of the House of Representatives without even having to win the general election. That means that Nehlen and his small group of discontented people will have, with a mere fraction of eligible voters, denied the talents of Congressman Ryan to all of us. A vote against Ryan is a vote against the New American Political Revolution and its Voice, Mr. Donald J. Trump. A vote against Ryan is also a suicide vote by the people of Janesville because it will be a wholesale give away of their power to help guide the nation during either a Trump or Hilary Presidency.

Remember, that if Congressman Paul Ryan is defeated in the primary by this obscure newcomer, then all is lost. Mr. Nehlen will not be the Speaker. He will merely be a new freshman congressman without seniority, chairmanships, committee position or the clout that goes with being a senior among your peers. The cost for the ideological defeat of Paul Ryan is far too great. Please remember, also, that his challenger must go on to win the election which is not a sure thing, so the net result could be a loss of the Speakership, the loss of senior committee chairmanships, and the loss of the seat itself to a Democrat. And for all of the people of Janesville district, Republican and Democrat, the loss of Paul Ryan would relegate them to obscurity as just another small town in the vast Wisconsin landscape.

Much is being made of Mr. Ryan and Mr Trump not agreeing. Good! Disagreement is good! We definitely do not want the Obama/Clinton robots who don’t even dare to disagree with them. We want a strong Speaker Ryan standing tall alongside a strong President Trump confident in their strengths and equally confident that they can agree to disagree without fear of reprisal. Such a relationship of strength is good for our Republic and good for the future of our freedom. In fact, such strength and respect is a key ingredient of the New American Political Revolution being spearheaded by Republican Donald Trump.

Paul Ryan gets things done. During his many years in Congress he has gained the respect of everyone who meets him. They do not all agree, but to have the respect of those with whom you openly disagree is a testament to Paul’s integrity , and the honesty of his commitment to serve as a doer and not just a talker. Paul Ryan knows what he is doing. He is a Congressman of principle. The key principle is Paul’s dedication to the Constitution and its provision for the separation of powers between the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government. He is also a proponent of limiting the power of the Federal government because the Constitution provides for fifty state governments which are sovereign in their locality. Because Paul Ryan has a comprehensive and inclusive philosophy of government, many who claim pure Conservative or pure liberal credentials see him as unworthy of their support. Frankly, many of these people actually hate him and call him names like RINO and traitor and Judas and the like. Sad for them and sad that they hate. (RINO means Republican In Name Only.) But America does not need a Speaker who is so purely ideological that he cannot work with others, cannot respect differences of opinion and cannot make a deal and get the job done.

If anyone should know about the art of the deal, it is candidate Donald J. Trump. He based his successful business career upon it. It is the title of one of his books. He does it better than anyone else. That is why the endorsement of Mr. Ryan by Mike Pence is a very big deal. It says that the non endorsement of Mr. Trump should not be considered a signal to defeat Speaker Ryan. Rather, the wholehearted endorsement of Mr. Ryan by Mike Pence is a signal to all who care about the New American Revolution that they should vote for Ryan and not against him. Remember Pence will be chairman of the Senate and will be working very closely with Speaker Ryan for the implementation of the programs that will make America great again.

Paul Ryan in his Own Words

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=fvwp&NR=1&v=8Bib7kKBhqs

This is a really great video and I do mean great.  Why?  Because it gives us Paul Ryan in his own words.  A lot of people are saying what they think Paul Ryan is saying.  Many others are giving us their opinions of what they think he is saying.  Today, even some of the panelists on Bret Braier (Fox) seemed not to actually know the facts about what Congressman Ryan believes regarding the fiscal crisis in USA.  Well, there is no excuse for not knowing exactly what Representative Ryan is saying because of You Tube.  There are hundreds of video’s of Mr. Ryan speaking at a host of venues and clearly articulating exactly what he says and definitively what he means.  Besides, Mr. Ryan is nice to look at, he has a pleasant voice and a dynamic style as he makes his case for fiscal responsibility.  Be informed and do not let others do your thinking for you.

Snotty Washington Post Writer

http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/mitt-romneys-faith-is-his-business/2012/06/04/gJQAdpGMEV_story.html?wpisrc=nl_opinions_Tue  Although I agree relative to Mitt Romney’s religion being his own business and it was written by me on this blog months ago, I really dislike snots.  This writer revels in his odious arrogance and is proud to stereotype, name call, and with a real intolerant attitude, to denigrate Mr. Romney.  However, I believe that it is just this kind of elitist attitude that makes writers like him and papers like the Washington Post representatives not of journalism but of intolerance and priggishness.

BlogTalkRadio Program

This writer also broadcasts a half hour radio broadcast on Blogtalkradio.  Granted it is not regularly but I, like you, have to make a living.  I like the comment on my blog today that said, “writing is the only work that is not criticized for not making money”  Anyway, if you care to tune into the program, it is on Blogtalkradio.com and the title is Considerations.  I also broadcast a rock and roll radio program using radionomy.  It is a non DJ program so all you hear is music, not even adverts yet because the listenership is low but it is a great station and works real good as background music while you are on the computer.  It’s at Radionomy.com and the title is “Uplifting”  If you like either program please let me know via the “like” botton.  Thanks

Romney being helped by the Voters

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/mitt-romney-gets-personal-campaign-trail-hopes-connecting-113125981.html  I really like this story and I appreciate the reporting skills of the reporter.  I also appreciate the editors who allowed this wonderful story to be published.  The key ingredient for me was that the voters are helping Romney.  I served in the US Army for thirty years and we had a slogan which I think was the best.  It said, “Be All that You Can Be!”  The essence of the slogan was that a person had personal traits that distinguished them from others.  These were the traits of the individual’s personal success.  The Army was not going to give these traits to the soldier.  He or she already had the traits.  The Army would release them, nurture them, and focus them so that the individual could “Be All that They Could Be.”  In this article about Governor Romney, we see that the voters see within the man unique character traits that they want him to release.  Therefore, the people in the audiences are happy when he allows himself to be himself.   Reading the article, I too, found this side of Governor Romney delightful.  However, I am in favor of Romney not because of his likeability, we had that with candidate Obama and we elected a likeable ideologue who seeks to fundamentally change the USA.  I am sure the supporters of Franco, Salazar, Mussolini, Hitler and Stalin all convinced themselves that their leaders were  likeable.  But we know them as tyrants.  I am in favor of Romney because of his experience as a Governor, entrepreneur, and very successful businessman.  The USA is a nation in need of a lover of the USA who wants to restore our great business system instead bashing it and the captains of its industry.  For myself, I intuited that the man Romney was a man of faith, a husband to a sick wife, and a father to well-adjusted children.  I thought it to be obvious and I was not surprised that candidate Romney was all business during business hours.  Frankly, that is what I want in my President, a leader who knows how to work.  I could care less about his basketball picks or his golfing skills.  And to the latest jab that Romney built an elevator in his mansion.  Good for him.  He spent his own money, thereby helping the manufacturer, wholesaler, and installers plus all the ancillary producers of the expensive product.  And Obama?  He spends 179 thousand dollars of taxpayer money every time he takes the nation’s jet, US One,  to his personal campaign fund-raising events.  It is time for a change in Washington and it is this writers hope that Romney will choose Rep. Paul Ryan as his Vice President.  Why?  Because although the Presidency of the Senate is largely ceremonial, there is nonetheless, enough power in that position to allow Ryan’s economic genius to flourish as he gets significant financial and economic programs through a “dead on arrival” Harry Reid slaughterhouse.

Does the Court In Wisconsin Believe It is Superior to the Legislature?

Yesterday a Court Judge ruled that the Wisconsin Labor law cannot be enforced.  Amazing how a single Judge sets herself up against the Governor and the legislature of a sovereign State.  It is disheartening for average citizens to watch such judicial legislation.  The Judges are supposed to rule on the legality of the law under the constitution.  So what is the Judge doing here?  Is it judicial politics or does she have legitimate reason to tell the legislature, in due order assembled, that it is not allowed to pass laws?  I understand this may seem simplistic but the people do elect legislators and Governors and they expect their decision to be respected unless the legislature does something egregiously harmful to the citizens of the State.  Do we really think that limiting government employees collective bargaining rights, and telling them to pay 8% of their pension of 12 5 of their health insurance is harmful to the State.  I am sure that the majority citizens of that State pay as much or more into their plans.  So what’s the problem?

Wisconsin Union Law is Fair

The passage of the collective bargaining law in Wisconsin is a vote for fairness.  This new law will level the playiing field- something that is a hallmark of President Obama’s liberal agenda.  It is noteworthy that this Wisconsin law will still allow the public employees to bargain collectively.  However, it will limit the extravagant demands of unions so that the public sector employees will no longer be paid extra high wages in comparison to their non union counterparts.  The new law will also limit the unions, thereby leveling the playing field in the area of benefits.  Right now public service union members contribute zero to both their pension and the excellent health care packages.  Who else gets those sweet deals?  So now in an effort to share the wealth, the union members will pay about 5 % into their pension and 12 % into their medical insurance.  I call that very fair and equitable.   So the unions have not been stripped of their rights.  Rather, in keeping with the Obama agenda they are required to play on a level playing field and to share their wealth with the people who actually pay their bills.  That is the taxpayer and we are cheering the Wisconsin Governor for his vision, his integrity and for doing after he was elected what he promised to do before he was elected.  He is a good and honest man and deserves to be honored.  By the way, what has Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, or Michael Moore done for us.  They get rich on our problems and then ask us to thank them for it.  Not Me!

Ohio Law Second in a Popular Revolt Against Tyranical Unions

The Ohio statue for limiting the negotiation privileges of Public Employee Unions is the second in a popular and publicly supported wave for Responsible Government.  The problem with having Unions for government employees is that the Unions apply their money to the support of candidates that favor them.  This results in a closed and circular system.  The Unions automatically support Democrat candidates who in turn are obligated to support Unions.  This means that an agency of government is obligated to support a fraction of the population ad versus the rest of the non unionized population.  The result is a prejudice against the non unionized in favor of the unionized.  This prejudice uses favorable actions of the Executive and legislative branch to singularly favor unions and thereby exclude the majority population which is non union.  This prejudice of the government in favor of the unionized means that the majority population, which is non union, is required by the law to pay for the wages, benefits and pensions of the minority.  As President Obama is fond of saying, he wants to spread the wealth around.  However, he is reaching into the pockets of lower paid non union workers in order to pay the higher wages, pensions and benefits that the unionized workers receive.  This is unfair, since the non unionized have not voluntarily agreed to do this but are forced to pay for the unionized by legislation and the tax code.  The preferential treatment of one category of people against the interests of another category of persons is coercive and it seems to this writer to be a civil rights issue.  How does this play as a civil rights issue.  Simply!  A citizens should not be required to pay for the higher wages, higher benefits and higher pensions of another group of citizens.

Wisconsin Governor Doing a Courageous Job.

 

Governing is not a popularity contest.  The Governor and the Government of a State should not be treated like an American Idol Game show.  The Governor is doing his job as best he sees it.  He wants to end the brutal downward spiral of the State’s economy, to stop the interest payments bleed which will eventually kill Wisconsin, and to bring honest accountability to government.   It is amazing that there is no outcry from the media concerning the democrat representatives who have run away from their jobs.  At the federal level, the last Congress of the USA faced an unprecedented show of force by President Obama.  He offered legislators money, kickbacks, perks and political promises including campaign money, resources and his appearance at their rallies.  Obama delivered on his promises for pork barrel spending to the Senators he purchased and he used Air Force One, the nation’s Jet to fly to dozens of rallies, (five alone in NJ) to support those he owned.  The cost of the jet for one use is minimally $180,000 per one way flight.  So to support NJ democrat candidates cost the US Treasury $1,800,000 taxpayer dollars! You do the math for all the Obama Campaign trips.  I think he could give Wisconsin that money and solve their money problem.  Oh, I forgot, we are talking about “do as I say and not as I do” Obama!  Is this man ever going to stop scolding the citizens of USA?  I think not until 2012 when he’s let go. By the way, during the onslaught of Obama/Reid/Pelosi, the Republicans did not run away from their jobs.  Although they were totally ignored by the majority democrats, the republicans stayed, spoke out, proposed viable alternatives and valiantly tried to use the art of persuasion and sound reasoning to win the fight.  Obama, Reid, Pelosi, the Unions and the bribes were too much and the democrats won the battle but as evidenced by the 2010 election, they may have lost the war.
