Paul Ryan is focused on the task before him. No frivolities will distract him.

Would a truly doggedly on-task type guy make a good President? Maybe not!
September 5, 2011
If he won't run for President, will Paul Ryan at least consider Vice President?
"I'm not going to focus on that only because it's someone else's decision, so what's the point of answering that question? I'm focused on doing my job right and that's so far away and it's out of my control, so I just don't spend my time worrying about it. I spend my time worrying about my job, which is balancing the budget, getting this debt under control and creating the conditions that will get jobs created in this country."
Paul Ryan is focused on the task before him. No frivolities will distract him.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 216 of 216" Except for putting the draft back in, the government doesn't create jobs."
Perry has an application, many gov applications for that:
Over the last few years, government jobs have been awfully consequential in Texas: 47% of all government jobs added in the US between 2007 and 2010 were added in Texas.
So according to the con nuts here Perry must be a gov take over lib who is about to murder a bunch of folks.
And, how do the folks who are so worried about mean BHO prosecuting (Gibson) the cons explain this:
"Turns out Texas was the state that depended the most on those very stimulus funds to plug nearly 97% of its shortfall for fiscal 2010, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.”
From the same link as 8:54
Is Texas a crony of BHO?
Trooper. Point taken. But,as you know, in short order the white girl from Kansas will be bitch slapped if she doesnt stop. Or the owner will have a quiet word.
We had pickled eggs and pigsfeet in the jazz and blues bars of my youth. And knives but that was something else.
And, how do the folks who are so worried about mean BHO prosecuting (Gibson) the cons explain this:
Nazi commie garble garble Marxist progressive garble garble Bill Ayers garble garble .
.....Alinsky.....Jeremiah Wright....The Tides Foundation....The UN.....
And what does Texas spending stimulus money have to do with prosecuting Gibson?
If Texas spent stimulus money on public payroll, then the Gibson prosecution is just, this is your argument?
What do these two issues have to do with each other?
Perry was actually once a democrat.
And, I'll bet that his book gets thrown at him.
I don't see Perry as the contendah.
And, IF it's Mitt? I see a strong 3rd Party. This always upsets applecarts.
I also don't think Obama has coattails. So I expect that tickets will be "split" ... which means when election night is over ... we'll see who owns Cogress. Or if it, too, remains with a split senate. Or not?
What will Obama be willing to part with ... in the nature of appealing for votes?
And, yes. What happens if the Supremes knock Obamacare out of the box in June 2012?
The media wants a horse race; so they'll be reporting a horse race.
I also don't think the focus groups that Bill Clinton used got fired.
Maguro,
So, you do defend the idiots who are opposed to law enforcement acting against Gibson for breaking the law.
1) In favor of law breaking: _________ (for Maguro)
Are you also concerned that the BHO administration is enforcing the law because Gibson gave dough to Rs, even though the same administration is responsible for giving tons of dough to fund the Texas job miracle, thereby greatly aiding the leading R opposition candidate to the BHO administration?.
2) In favor of idiotic conspiracy theories: __________(for Maguro)
Do you believe that libs/progs are leading us toward mass murder?
3) in favor of lunacy:_________(for Maguro)
It's fill in the blank. What fun!

You know what would be funny?
Fr argument's sake, I'll stipulate the guess that obama wins. And, he gets to select other surpreme court justices. AND, he picks as one replacement: Anita Hill.
Yes, I can remember when the elder Bush selected Thomas. And, brought him to Maine, (I think). To make the announcement that he had searched the earth ... to find Thomas.
Then, of course, there was the Thomas confirmation hearing, that was nearly derailed.
Yet since 1992 I have never heard Blacks honoring Thomas. (Yes, I did hear Blacks honoring Thurgood Marshall!) But that's been absent. For decades, now.
Where's Anita Hill? I think she chairs a department. And, I think she still has people who still support her version of events.
I also know the elder Bush lost rather unceremoniously ...
While the GOP runs and insider's tent. (And, one that particularly disliked Ronald Reagan.)
While it's possible there are insiders within the GOP who don't think any of the current crop of candidates get elected. Will the excitement become 2016?
Will new stars be born?
Pb&j - No need to be a condescending little twat. I was just trying to understand your 9:00 PM post, which makes no sense because it references Texas stimulus spending and the Gibson prosecution and assumes a connection between the two where none exists.
Apparently you can't even explain it yourself, so I'll stop trying to understand now.
"No need to be a condescending little twat."
True.
But, I don't know much else.
And anyway, even when I'm dialed to elevnty on the obnoxious scale I still have a little tongue/cheek action, though (w/o a webcam) that's hard to convey through the tubes.

" ...acting against Gibson for breaking the law."
And you know this how, exactly?
There's been a trial? Gibson CEO has admitted this?
How?
The speculation on VPs seems to be ignoring the most obvious candidates.
It seems to me that, whoever wins, Condi Rice would be the obvious VP pick. Most of the GOP nominees lack foreign policy experience, and there is simply nobody within light years of Condi for that sort of experience and expertise. It helps also that as an African American, she could take the edge off any race-baiting on Obama's part.
Choice two would be Petraeus. I don't know much about his political views, but it seems to me that he is a conservative on the face of it. He would be popular with whomever chose him.
Jindal is now an experienced Governor, and has performed solidly, and handled Katrina well.
Those seem no-brainers to me, but I'm surprised nobody is talking about them, and instead going for congressmen and first term senators with no real record or experience.
Just preserving this comment by Trooper York, who has criticized this blog for tolerating "J":

Actually J is an acquried taste with a strong opinion and a unique way of presenting it. He has a point of view and is trying to find a way to express in his jazzy improv style. I know that the personal attacks can be annoying but who am I to critize that since I love personal attacks my ownself.
I like to hear someone who thinks so much differently than me. You need both sugar and mustard. You shouldn't get caught up in his name calling. It's just a motif like garage's idoicy and Cedarffords anti-semitism.
He brings a lot to the blog in my humble opinion. Another voice that we should here. Just sayn'

Back in the day we used to go to this bar on Court St called Cousins. What wsa different about it was it wasn't the usual neighborhood gin mill with a bunch of guineas and micks farting and earting hard boiled eggs. There were hot latin chicks and nurses from Long Island College Hospital and black chicks with Angela Davis afros and an attitude.
They had a stand up piano and had jazz every night. Often they hired young girls just starting out in the music business. There is nothing like listening to a skinny young white girl fresh from Kansas singing Billie Holiday. She wanted to have soul but didn't have the esperiance. So she warbled in the background while you tried to pick up chicks at the bar.
You see it's all jazz. It might be bad jazz. Sad jazz. Not to your taste. But she might have got better. You have to give people a chance. Just my opinion.
