9 ways new House Speaker Paul Ryan was a total dick as a lawmaker

Republican white boy cool

Now let’s take a walk down memory lane and look at just a few of the many ways in which Paul Ryan has been a total dick throughout his political career.
There is a reason why Paul Ryan has been called a “Zombie-eyed Granny Starver.” Ryan has dedicated his political life to starving the poor and making their lives as miserable as possible because they lack the gumption to become rich. One of his favorite targets is Social Security because everyone knows that particular social safety set is for losers. On more than one occasion Ryan has proposed deep cuts in Social Security benefits for widows, the elderly, and others in need due to disabilities. 
That is bad enough and, taken alone, should earn him a prime seat next to Satan in Hell. But wait — there’s more. Because the congressman’s father tragically passed away when Ryan was only 16, he was able to avail himself to survivor benefits paid through Social Security in order to pay for his college education at Miami of Ohio. That means that the same people whose benefits he wants to slash paid for his education through their contributions to the system so he could graduate and become a congressman and try and shorten their lives. Other than that he seems like such a nice young man. So polite.
Paul Ryan made a great show during his response to the State of The Union of praying for fellow lawmaker Gabby Giffords after she was shot in the head in 2011. In 2012 when he was running for vice president he came out against any new laws that would restrict gun purchases. Sorry, Gabby — that was then, and this is now.
A budget submitted by Ryan would have allowed student loan interest rates to double and slashed Pell grants, while at the same time he was calling for fewer regulations on the predatory student loan industry. Did I mention he also voted to make student loans non-dischargable in bankruptcies? Asked why he was trying to make life more difficult for college goers, Ryan told a student that he worked three jobs to pay off his student loans. Get a job(s), hippie!
Speaking of which, while the economy was still recovering, Ryan voted nine times  against extending unemployment benefits between 2003 and 2012. Get a job, hippies. Again.
plenty more in article.  boy when you listen to these guys they paint a picture of a beautiful landscape but when you look back at them you see a picture of Dorian Gray and all the rot that brings.  they don't care about us it's about power and money we can only vote for them once through the door it's all for themselves

and we are the chumps they used to realize their goals non of which include fixing Washington or the gov't, spending they take it from you than campaign for 7 years against the administration that is doing our work with that money boasting of holding the purse strings they money well can you eat drink or keep warm with all the witch hunts it was spent on????????????????

and now he gets the reinforce the obstruction for another year and when they lose 2016 8 more we can stop them there are pit stops along the way called senate and congressional elections use them to your advantage not theirs.
