Those were the days of their lives

[RandiFan1290]

[Tennessee Gal]

[CTyankee]

hint: I am not holding my breath...

[malaise]

49. Neither will I

Hahahahah

[CTyankee]

53. Um, I see this story is in the Huff Post so maybe he'll be forced to cover it...

I wonder what rationalization he'll give, tho...

[PearliePoo2]

51. Scar has been singing Ryan's praises...

while Mika frowns and shakes her head.

[Atman]

8. Obama should just run that tape as is.

Just "I'm president Onama and I approve this message" and roll that tape of Ryan. The man is absolutely shameless.

[malaise]

10. Agreed - this is too good

[Graybeard]

29. This should go viral.

Send it to all of your friends.

Call the MSM to put it on their news.

Reporters must question him and make
him answer for this gross hypocisy.

[Tennessee Gal]

11. Yes, use that tape!

Such hypocrisy!

[Enrique]

9. a match made in heaven

perfectly said.

[malaise]

12. A match brewed by the Kochcaine posse

is more accurate.

[Sedona]

13. Can someone please enlighten those of us

who didn't quite wake up in time

(or were watching Stephanie Cutter kicking ass on CNN)

what we missed?

[Enrique]

15. you will be seeing the tapes Chris played

incredible video of Paul Ryan arguing for stimulus in 2002. Several minutes of him making arguments that are 100% incompatible with his hard line opposition to stimulus under Obama.

[malaise]

18. Remember Ryan was at that gathering of ReTHUGS on Inauguration Night

where the plotted to sabotage the Obama administration.

[Graybeard]

23. And sabotage the country as well.

As this tape proves they will defeat measures that have helped the economy in the past only because it is Obama's plan. They voted against the country's interests.

[PearliePoo2]

25. Didn't know that!

Who else was there on Obama's inauguration night?

It's always party before country for these slimy traitors.
Treasonous fuckers.

[malaise]

27. Here

<snip>
A detailed account of who was present at the dinner on that January 20 night and the plan they worked out to bring down Obama is provided by Robert Draper in 'Do Not Ask What Good We Do: Inside the US House of Representatives', published this week.

In his book, Draper opens with the heady atmosphere in Washington on the days running up to the inauguration and the day itself, which attracted 1.8 million to the mall to witness Obama being sworn in as America's first black president.

Those numbers contributed to a growing sense of unease among Republicans as much the defeat in the White House race the previous November. The 15 Republicans were in a sombre mood as they gathered at the Caucus Room in Washington, an upscale restaurant where a New York strip steak costs $51.

Attending the dinner were House members Eric Cantor, Jeb Hensarling, Pete Hoekstra, Dan Lungren, Kevin McCarthy, Paul Ryan and Pete Sessions. From the Senate were Tom Coburn, Bob Corker, Jim DeMint, John Ensign and Jon Kyl. Others present were former House Speaker and future – and failed – presidential candidate Newt Gingrich and the Republican strategist Frank Luntz, who organised the dinner and sent out the invitations.

[PearliePoo2]

39. Thanks!

aaahhh....the usual suspects (most of whom should be behind bars).

[Berlum]

33. Ahhh, at last. Took 15 replies before someone explained what this thread is about

Thank you, Enrique. It's always nice to have some kind of frikkin clue of what people are so merrily & blankly splooging about...

[avebury]

35. Here is a link to the clip

VIDEO: Paul Ryan defended stimulus in 2002, when George W. Bush wanted it

http://upwithchrishayes.msnbc.com/_news/2012/08/19/13361928-video-paul-ryan-defended-stimulus-in-2002-when-george-w-bush-wanted-it

[Yooperman]

48. Wow.... thanks for posting the link for those of us without cable.

I agree with previous posters... Obama just has to use this to show how republicans will only support republicans period and here he not only supports the stimulus but also tells of those in the opposition party braking ranks to support "bush's" stimulus plan.

Romney condemns Obama for reaching across party lines to use his (Romney's) plan for Healthcare reform and now we have Ryan condemning Obama for using the same strategies he (Ryan) supported when Bush was pResident. For the life of me I can't understand how people can consider voting republican anymore. What a pair of Hypocrites the have standing up for the self proclaimed "Family Values" party.

YM

[CTyankee]

36. absolutely full-throated, over the top argument FOR stimulus, how a stimulus works, why it is

important, how it is generally agreed that government stiimulus in a time of recession is NECESSARY to get the economy rolling again...a Democrat couldn't make a stronger case than he did in that tape! WOW...

[PearliePoo2]

16. Haye's panel when asked to respond to Ryan's House speech from 2002....

said, "WHO WAS THAT GUY"? and "SHOCKING!"

Ryan = Hypocrisy on steroids

[Graybeard]

17. Hypocritical son of a bitch...caught!!

Speech on the House floor fervently for the Bush stimulus plan.

How can he possibly Etch-A -Sketch this away?

Good when Bush proposes it but awful when Obama does?

This must go viral.

[spanone]

20. i suspect the rest of the media will stubbornly ignore it

[malaise]

24. You can't ignore that tape

They can't

When Congressman Paul Ryan has been asked the past few years about the value of stimulus to the sagging economy and the nation's jobless, the Wisconsin Republican has dismissed it as meaningless, and dubbed it "sugar-high economics."

But that's when President Obama is pushing for the spending. When it was President George W. Bush arguing for more stimulus to boost a slow economy in the early 2000s, Ryan's economic analysis was entirely different.

"What we're trying to accomplish today with the passage of this third stimulus package is to create jobs and help the unemployed," Ryan said, in comments unearthed by MSNBC's "Up with Chris Hayes" and provided to HuffPost. "What we're trying to accomplish is to pass the kinds of legislation that when they've passed in the past have grown the economy and gotten people back to work."

Video of the comments will be aired at 8:00 a.m. Sunday on MSNBC.

[Berlum]

42. The FORKED TONGUE is by now a Republican trademark

[PearliePoo2]

21. Hypocritical fucker

also exposed begging for stimulus money.
what an asshole.

[CTyankee]

37. Michael Grunwald calls Ryan "cash and trash."

I wrote that down. I am SO going to use it, perhaps in a LTTE...

[avebury]

28. Great show today as always. nt

[Logical]

30. I hate posts like these. Post some damn information.

[malaise]

32. See post 24 n/t

[CTyankee]

38. You can watch the segment on the Up with Chris Hayes page of msnbc.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/46979738/ns/msnbc-up_with_chris_hayes/

Best thing I've seen on the teevee machine in a while!

[malaise]

40. Thanks

[Lochloosa]

41. Here is the link to the segment...

[malaise]

43. Excellent

Thanks

[BumRushDaShow]

44. Ryan is

[lonestarnot]

45. I'm still half asleep, but I think I just saw it on M.H.P. program.

[democrat_patriot]

46. Soooo, Ryan's a Democrat?

Good for him. Welcome back. You asshat.

[lightcameron]

47. Fucking incredible. THAT is the video that will sink this charlatan.

If this doesn't come up in the VP debate, something is really wrong with our system.

[renate]

50. somebody should start a thread with the link to the video

One of the people who found the video, or malaise, should do it. I would but I don't want to seem to take credit for doing the finding.

I don't think any DUer would want to miss seeing that.

Thanks, all of you who found this for us!

[Graybeard]

54. Thanks to the staff of UP.

These hosts on MSNBC all have behind-the-scenes staffs that do the research and pore over the obscure but relevant stuff like voting records and speeches on the floor.

Maddow, O'Donnell, Chris Hayes et al get to present it on the air. I just want to give some credit to those who do the grunt work.

[malaise]

55. Do it

[Tennessee Gal]

58. Kicking because Chris Hayes exposing Ryan was great!
