    I think you did it just about right.
    .
    Ryan’s ridiculousness would be funny if it weren’t…
    .
    It’s like everything else from right wing bizzaro land.
    .
    Here on Earth the saying is “It’s funny, cause it’s true!”
    .
    But Ryan’s speil “Is NOT funny because he thinks it’s true!”

    Ever notice that Ryan keeps looking more and more like Weiner? The gym shots, the “they photoshopped me” excuses, is he the “conservative internet guy”

    Biden always means what he says though.

    “Folks, I can tell you I’ve known eight presidents, three of them intimately.” -Joe Biden, Aug. 22, 2012
    -
    —————————————

    -
    ————————————————————————
    “I promise you, the president has a big stick. I promise you.” -Joe Biden, April 26, 2012
    -
    ————————————————————
    “Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me.” -Joe Biden, speaking at a town hall meeting in Nashua, New Hampshire, Sept. 10, 2008
    -
    ——————————————————
    I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man." –Joe Biden, referring to Barack Obama at the beginning of the 2008 Democratic primary campaign, Jan. 31, 2007

    So what’s your point?
    .
    He said what he meant and he meant what he said. It might not have been eloquent, but he meant it.

    High end tax cuts are for ‘small’ businesses — if you define small according to the tax code, meaning small number of owners.
    -
    Small businesses that Ryan is referring to includes Bain Capital, Koch Industries, hedge funds, doctors’ partnerships, and other small high end earners.
    -
    Also, when Boehner refers to protecting small businesses, these are who he is talking about NOT your neighborhood deli.
    -
    I’m sure there are some of our trolls who will argue how trickle down economics are just swell.
    -
    Any Republicans who honestly believe that Ryan is a fiscal conservative?

    Ryan is correct. What is the problem – except that O is in power now?

    Interesting. Given that he is obsessed with his body there could be some “special” photo on some smartphone somewhere… And I still don’t understand why they put out the gym-shots. This is how “presidential” looks these days? And then the right complains about the President going on “The View”…

    Something went wrong with your copy&paste from Rush’s site…

    “my point is: he is an idiot
    I thought it was obvious”
    .
    It wasn’t, and it still isn’t. Perhaps you’ll understand that there is a difference between a “Point” and a “vague” opinion?
    .
    Perhaps you can tell me what is so idiotic about a boy whose parents tell him to aim high? Were his parents wrong? Did the man not achieve greatness in his lifetime? The Senate is one exclusive club! Not just anybody gets to get there. It is an achievement all by itself. Vice President is an exclusive club although not as tough as the Senate (evidence Dan Quayle, Spiro Agnew, Nelson Rockefeller, and many others)
    .
    “Intimately”? is that your problem with his knowing 3 presidents? Because you are too juvenile to separate intimate from intimacy? That makes Biden an idiot? or somebody else?
    .
    “Big Stick”? Op cit. Grow up!
    .
    What is so idiotic to recognize the talent of Hillary Clinton? She would have made a great president, and a great vice president. Instead she is a great Sec of State. (Don’t bother with the Benghazi routine! her tenure at state is universally recognized as exemplary) Joe meant what he said and he said what he meant.
    .
    How is what he said about Obama wrong exactly? (I know, but I wonder if you do. i tend to doubt it.)
    .
    Balls in your court Ansonia. You made the claim, I challenged it, now, if you are a grown up, you will need to defend it
