“Everyone knew he was a delusional dictator puppet before the election. We got exactly what we voted for. So if you’ll excuse us, we have to get back to fleecing the poor.”
“I haven’t had a chance to read it. I’ve been briefed on it,” Ryan told Greta Van Susteren on MSNBC. “It’s been a little busy here.”
Maybe it’s just me, but I can read 7 pages much quicker than asking someone to read the statement, calling a meeting, waiting for the meeting and then listening to a presentation, taking time to ask questions to make sure I heard it correctly.
“It sounds like it’s much of what’s already been reported…”
“…by Woodward and Bernstein.”
What do you expect him to say? Ryan is a traitorous Kochsucker.
Paul,
You are a lightweight. You make it sound like it will take all evening to read through all seven pages. Whew.
Why don’t you start preparing now to brace for the Trump tweets that happen during the testimony. Do you keep wanting to look all lightweighty as Speaker by not being able to respond at all to when the President acts like a 12 year old and implicates himself in wrong-doing? Oh - that’s right you didn’t need to respond to the president alienating NATO or the G7, or “That Justin from Canada”, or the Prime Minister of Australia… I won’t go on - you get the picture. Sooner or later you have to take your place at the table as a leader of one of the three branches of government. Then again, maybe you like being the Barney Fife of the historical line of Speakers of the House.
Gosh, he’s an asshole.
Donald Trump’s election has resulted in so many negative consequences for decent, reasonable Americans and the stress level seems to continually escalate. However, one positive outcome for me is imagining how Ryan must feel right now. You wanted this Paul, so enjoy it (and I’m wishing you sweet dreams about 2018)
That was weak.
Meh. They won’t act until Trump is halfway through the woodchipper and they realize they’re handcuffed to him. It is known.
But you can’t read it faster than not reading and saying you were debriefed.
It’s back.
Paul Ryan? Is that the guy who dismissed all of this same stuff previously…because at that time it was just hearsay and rumor with no basis?
I hope he goes through feet first. Saddam’s boys would put you through a metal shredder head-first only if they didn’t hate you. Enemies went through with their best foot forward.
Should we draw straws?
We could hire Wasilla Kardashian for color commentary
I got this one. I was out of town for a week, remember? I’ve missed out.
ETA: Call Beej-o-rooter, that’s the name and away go beej posts down the drain. BEEJ-O-ROOTER!

Boom! You’re good.
Where does a sock puppet go when he dies, Mom?
School is out, he no doubt has a bevvy of unpaid interns swirling around him, making him feel beloved and important, so of course he’d rather “hold court” with his new, very young staffers who can adore him in person while he dreams of his days in the Oval and his very own hummer under the desk.
But maybe that’s all in my imagination.
