Cenk or Ed should give it try with the current disgust level so high with Pukes and Dems.

5. Isn't that what Paul Ryan and the Republicans
Edited on Sun Jul-24-11 09:45 PM by doc03
claim they are doing? I have received numerous e-mails and mailers from my Congressman Bill Johnson saying that is what the Ryan budget does. I sent him one e-mail calling him every name in the book and I received an e-mail thanking me for my support. So apparently any e-mails he receives no matter what is counted as someone supporting the Ryan plan. I also received a questionnaire about Medicare and it is worded in such a way that you have to answer supporting Ryan. That's the old NRA trick.
