We still need to help ya clear things up, Mr Speaker? This is another example of what a “publicity stunt” looks like.

And doing his damnedest to make Boehner look like a shining beacon of reason and tolerance.

And you thought they were adversarial to President Obama. Imagine how adversarial they are going to be against President Clinton.

Well, I for one, believe that since our “Speaker” doesn’t seem to understand how our Constitution and the chain of command works–and just who is at the top of that chain–would like to request the CIA, DOJ, FBI, State Department and all other intel-gathering organizations refrain from sharing any of that intelligence data with Paul Ryan for the duration of his stay in Congress. Who knows what he plans on doing with it – I mean, he “trusts” Donald J. Trump of all people, for dog’s sake!

And Ryan is supposed to be the “smart” one? He should probably stick to budgets since he seems to be the only one in his party who has any idea, however inadequate, about how numbers work.

You, sir, are a petty little whiner.

Reporters should ask Ryan every time he opens his mouth to tell us where his Congress is on getting a budget passed, reforming the immigration process, reforming the unbelievable tax system we have, reforming the ACA to fix its many flaws, protecting us from Zika, and getting a jobs bill passed. How this moron can recess Congress when it has done NOTHING for months on end is way beyond me.
gop can’t govern

Trump’s admiration for North Korea’s Kim Jong Un is a greater security risk than the Bush family’s relationship with the bin Laden family. Oh wait. Ryan doesn’t give a fly’s fart about either of those.

That’s simple…because the nation isn’t under one-party rule. It is as simple as that. Rather than allowing the Democrats to share power or to allow the American People to have any say in governance, the GOP would rather destroy this country.

…and where is The Speakers famous concern for due process? He is reluctant to propose legislation preventing people on the No Fly list from purchasing guns because they haven’t had their day in court but has convicted Hillary after the FBI determined there were no grounds for prosecution.
Oh I remember now. He is a slimy partisan Republican but I am becoming redundant.

OK, Paulie, I’m OK with Hitlary not getting “classified” briefings before her Inauguration – IF, and only IF, you submit yourself to the authorities for prosecution for “giving aid and comfort to the enemy.” Because, after all, your persistent attempts to destroy the effective functioning of government is pretty damn close to what Osama wanted. And his spirit lives on in ISIS.
And take Mitch McConnell with you. The both of you should be rendered to some place where the interrogators have less … scruples regarding their interrogation techniques.

Hey, Paulie! Why don’t you send a letter to Glinda, the Good Witch of the North while you are at it, since it will do about as much good.
Only the President gets to decide this, asshole, but you wouldn’t DARE send a request like this to him, after the way you and your party have totally disrespected the man over the past 8 years, and he would surely tell you to shove your written request right up you and your treasonous party’s ass - of course, being Obama he would state it in the nicest, most erudite way possible.
If you are so fucking ignorant to not even know the workings of the government of this country, you shouldn’t be allowed to be Speaker of the House. You shouldn’t be allowed to be the Congressional washroom attendant, although I am sure the current Congressional washroom attendant is more worthy of receiving classified info than that Presidential candidate of yours whose Name You Dare Not Speak!
I cannot wait for the epic smackdown from the White House. I can almost see Josh Earnest polishing some great one-liners to stick up Ryan’s anal-retentive Teabagger ass. You bit off a lot more than you can chew this time, motherfucker, and Obama has been waiting to fuck you over for years, and now, he has no more fucks to give, which puts you in a very precarious position, you supreme dickhead.

I understand about making hay while the sun shines…but I’m less clear on making hay while a giant Trump cloud is hanging over your head.
You must be one of those persons who believes in “Peak Wingnut.”
There is NOTHING beneath any of those treasonous mofos, as long as it (in their “minds”) helps them win elections, or increases their power, or allows them to hate on Obama/Hillary even more.

I didn’t think Ryan had that authority.
He doesn’t have that authority. He can ask all day, but there’s nothing he can legally do.

Well, that was because they knew the material would get burned in yet another “unknown origin” fire that seems to follow the car thief around.

The Speaker of the House was only added to the Presidential Succession in 1947, and for a good reason. Truman had no Vice President. Once the 25th Amendment was adopted (allowing for replacement of a vacant vice presidency), the need for the Speaker to be in the line of Succession was rendered moot. Time to amend the Presidential Succession Act of 1947 and remove the Speaker from the line of succession. Might restore some of the balance of power.
