Chad Lee’s Objectivity

Proud Progressive — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 17:10:38 +0000

Chad Lee recently put out a TV commercial(how in the world did he raise enough for TV is another blog), but he rightly criticizes Incumbent Tammy Baldwin:

“Congress gave $700 billion of our tax dollars to Wall Street while they allowed 90,000 small businesses to go bankrupt. Tammy Baldwin’s vote for the Wall Street [...]

Yeah, looks like Rep. Paul Ryan had a lot of fans of his “Roadmap for America’s Future” at a recent town hall meeting:

thank you Mr. President

As the Economist(hardly the liberal media) recently pointed out, an apology is due to President Obama on his bailout of GM. They even point out that there is a chance that, when we spin the stock that we own, we might even make a profit.

The lesson for American voters is that their [...]

Paul Ryan: progressivism is a cancer

Zach — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 10:37:36 +0000

Found in my email inbox: Progressivism is a “cancer” in America: so says Glenn Beck, and so agrees Rep. Paul Ryan, a Republican from Wisconsin. Ryan says his goal is to “indict the entire vision of progressivism” which he says is “a complete affront of the whole idea of this country.”

He says he [...]

I Rest My Case!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For months now I have been having fun pointing out the ridiculousness of the “tea” parties. From the fact that the original tea party was to protest a corporate tax cut, to the fact that Big Government millionaires Paul Ryan and Tommy Thompson have been headline speakers, to their beginning of funding and organizing [...]

Waste my hate

Proud Progressive — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 15:05:02 +0000

Since it appears that Republican Congressman Peter King cant fit two hate filled thoughts in his head at once, he is urging his fellow republicans to ignore the overturning of prop 8 in CA during this election cycle.

In this politico piece (http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0810/40776_Page2.html#ixzz0vvztZaqg), was this rather telling quote by the congressman (http://www.balloon-juice.com/2010/08/07/a-blunt-admission/)

While being exposed as the economic fraud that he is, by Nobel Prize winning economist Paul Krugman (as pointed out early by Madcityman) ryan through his standard hissy [...]

The Scam of the Flim Flam Man – Paul Ryan

MadCityMan — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 22:26:13 +0000

Paul Krugman takes on the Golden Boy of the GOP - Paul Ryan - in today's New York Times. You can read his column "The Flim Flam Man" here. I thought there were several points worth extracting from the editorial. "But no: as long as someone on the right claims to have bold new proposals, he’s hailed as an innovative thinker. And nobody checks his arithmetic. "Which brings me to the innovative thinker du jour: Representative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin." "But it’s the audacity of dopes. Mr. Ryan isn’t offering fresh food for thought; he’s serving up leftovers from the 1990s, drenched in flimflam sauce." [...]

Call and Response – Paul Ryan Speaks, MCM responds

MadCityMan — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 20:11:57 +0000

Republican Golden Boy, Paul Ryan, received a great deal of coverage in today's New York Times article "A Young Republican with a Sweeping Agenda" including being asked questions that for some reason are not showing up in the online edition, but are probably the most insightful on his positions. Given that they aren't readily apparent in the online article, I'm re-publishing some of them here to show yet again how out of touch Mr. Ryan is from his constituents views and from the majority of Wisconsinites.

I LIKE IKE!

Proud Progressive — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 02:50:16 +0000

On November 8, 1954 President Dwight Eisenhower (Ike) wrote a letter to his brother Edgar. The two, while very close, had been battling since they were kids. Things did not change while Ike was president, as they continued their debate in a series of letters (a bit before e-mail). Edgar had always complained that [...]
