Every time he adjusts the hoozits, the whachamacallit falls out of alignment.

Tuning up the dissenters. Finely.

We have a ‘CONsensus’ on what this bill is – Wealth-care.

“It’s not coming up this afternoon, it’s going through the legislative process,” he said. “That legislative process has not been finalized. So that’s kind of a – no offense, kind of a goofy question or faulty premise because this goes through four committees.”

Free clue, Speaker Ryan, just because you don’t like the answer to the question doesn’t make it “goofy.” It cuts right to the heart of the matter. If the bill is so good, which you’ve repeatedly asserted, why can’t you equally confidently assert that it will pass the House, a body you lead?

I think Trump is going to throw him under the bus again.

That’s all my 66 Fairlane on block with a thrown rod needs, a little tweak and fine tuning.

Ryan: we have a consensus

Q: Do you have the votes?

Ryan: There’s a process…

Ryan hedged that Republican members of Congress were “fine-tuning our consensus" on the bill.

“A little adjustment to the rabbit ears, and the picture on the ol’ Magnavox will look just swell!”

Have you ever seen a meth addict strip wire for copper for the recycling money to get more meth? They have this chemical Zen going on–a mindful OCD uni-tasking. Until the psychosis rocks in.

Ryan is just ripping away at this thing, isn’t he? Tireless in his pursuit of clean, untraceable copper strands.

The turtle is munching away on popcorn just like the rest of us.

@austin_dave As others have pointed out, Democrats have learned to accept half a loaf. These Freedom Caucus/alt-right/weirdo freaks won’t settle for anything short of a ten-tier wedding cake, and that gives me some comfort.

@sophie_brown Not to worry! Dr. Carson will fix him up good as new. Well, there might be a few extra holes, but he’ll be just as dumb as he is now.

Does anyone else have that itchy feeling about the certain failure of this bill that they had watching the returns on election night? Like, of course it can’t pass…uh-oh…

Paul Ryan couldn’t wipe his own ass if you spotted him an overhead mirror and a case of Charmin.

Fine tuning means they have found more ways to screw the needy,

Fine tuning…right…they’re trying to find the frequency at which democracy shatters.

I think Paul Ryan is hated by republicans as much as by democrats. Paul Ryan is a loser, and a heartless monster.
