[Inuca]

Ryan has not been thrown off track. At. All.

Reince Priebus is watching from next to stage. Branstad has one foot on stage



15m Felicia Sonmez‏@feliciasonmez

"Stop the war on the poor!" Man yells. Guy in front of him picks it up too. Ryan supporters hold up signs in front of them to block him

1. Go IOWA.

[FarPoint]

2. Iowa takes charge!

Go Iowa! Set the example!

[progressivebydesign]

3. Love Iowa and my democratic family there!!

People make a mistake believing that Iowa is hard core right wing because it's rural.

My family there is very Democratic, and I find it's because Iowa tends to be a NO BULLSHIT State. They see through shit very fast there.

I only wish my Grandma was alive when President Obama was elected.. omg she would have adored him! She loved being a "little old lady in Iowa" when the campaigns came through, because the republican's would see her and assume she was conservative, she LOVED telling them how wrong they were.

ETA, Ryan is not thrown off because he's a fucking automatron... he has no soul.

4. YOur grandma sounds like my mom

She passed away last winter . Lived far away, but was extatic when Obama was elected.

25. Nice

Nice to read this post..gives me faith in Iowa.

5. Ryan staff memo: Effective immedialtely: those that enter must sign pledges to the GOP.

Place dissenters back in the 'free speech zones'.

That is all.

[Z_California]

6. Shout out for Iowa

My grandpa was the Iron Workers BA in Cedar Rapids for many years and there is a great blue collar Democratic tradition there. Do NOT try to bullshit an Iowan.

11. They Might Not Be From Iowa - But They Are American's........

do you remember what American's are Paul?

[Inuca]

8. Iowa State Fair is now trending on twitter

On the flip side, looks that inm addition to hecklers he also had what is labeled a "palin sized" crowd. Well... we know how that ended

[Vietnameravet]

28. Palin

You betcha!!

[unionthug]

9. Real people?!

It turns out that real people have real opinions and real experience. Mitt and Paul don't chat with them much.

12. Two Words...

Fuck and You.

We learned our lessons from Two Shoes McClown, Eddie Munster the Fucking Parasite^TM, you will fucking dogged everywhere you got, bag that douches.

I sincerely hope you are right..( dont mean "right' as in politics but right as in correct!!

[MoonRiver]

32. After watching the protesters in FL I'm starting to think that way.

Ryan is a lightning rod for senior rage.

[madokie]

15. Get 'm Ohioans

We're not in play so I won't get a chance to see what happens to him here in OK as he more than likely won't be coming here.

[dsteve01]

16. Obama Dialogue starts at 3:00

[handmade34]

19. thanks...

[Lucy Goosey]

17. Go, Iowa!

So much awesome!

If he's going to stand up there and lie about how the only way to make things better is to cut taxes for the rich and cut benefits for the poor, he deserves to be reminded that some of us still live in the reality based community.

[ibegurpard]

18. He was thrown off all right

he was very awkward after that

[flamingdem]

20. git 'em good! n/t

[AlbertCat]

21. Ryan has not been thrown off track. At. All.

Of course not. What does he care what this poster or anyone else in the Iowa crowd has to say? He doesn't CARE about "you people".

[LynnTTT]

22. I generally don't believe in interrupting speeches, but here in SC

I have discovered that the local "Town Hall"
meetings held by the rabid right wingers here will never answer a polite question from anyone who disagrees with them. My Congressman , oh lucky me, is Rep. Joe Wilson of "you lie" fame. Guess how far I get with any questions.

[Vietnameravet]

23. Good

Good news to hear that some are getting the message. I bet those dumb asses that defend Ryan would crap their pants if he did away with a dollar in their Medicare funding.

I was at a meeting for senator Sheldon Whitehouse and some woman stood up and attacked him saying she wanted the government to have no part in her health insurance!!!! ( you can guess what happened next because it has happened so many times) He asked her what health plan she had and she said Medicare! She was stunned when he said that is a government program...she sat down but honest to god,. no more than five minutes later some old fart got up and made the same statement and he too was surprised to learn his heath plan government run!!

[Scuba]

24. Attaway Iowa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Uncle Joe]

27. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread, Inuca.

[Skidmore]

29. Iowans are good people.

Was born here and I will die here.

[Frustratedlady]

31. Amen! Same here!

We may be welcoming to politicians, but don't screw around with us. We've listened to many, many politicians for years and years. We can spot a phony when they walk in the room, so save your breath if you're going to stand there and lie: banghead: .

Now, the Tea Party has problems I won't even get into...
