Comments on: The Paul Ryan Record – Not as Fiscally Conservative as You Think http://www.rlc.org/the-paul-ryan-record/ The Conscience of the Republican Party Fri, 26 Apr 2013 21:19:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Dave Nalle http://www.rlc.org/the-paul-ryan-record/comment-page-1/#comment-33134 Dave Nalle Mon, 13 Aug 2012 21:07:27 +0000 http://www.rlc.org/?p=7335#comment-33134 Edward, I think the reason for the article is to point out to people like you who think that Ryan "is as conservative as can be" that this is not, in fact, true and that his real record is one of a fiscal moderate who goes along with almost all the big spending opportunities which come his way from the GOP leaders or from Obama. Dave Edward, I think the reason for the article is to point out to people like you who think that Ryan “is as conservative as can be” that this is not, in fact, true and that his real record is one of a fiscal moderate who goes along with almost all the big spending opportunities which come his way from the GOP leaders or from Obama.

Unfortunatley we get a lot of comment spam, so we have to make sure that a human goes over the comments to keep it on topic. Nothing which is even vaguely relevant and not written by a bot gets censored, not even your intemperate ranting about how you're being censored, based on nothing at all. Dave James.

Why? Simple, if we don't change the fiscal direction away from the current track, we wont have ANY personal freedoms, except those that China lets us keep. Once we fix the financial explosion coming down the road, and quickly, THEN we can go after the idiocy that is the Patriot Act, No Child Left Behind, et al. If you fight for the latter first, then you might get rid of a few of them, but the entitlement programs will crush the economy in such a way that having gruel for dinner will look good.

Ryan is as conservitive as can be and as we go through this election you will be educated. The fact that he voted 90% with George Bush proves to me and I'm sure Romney, that he will be a fine vice president and 8 years later a great president!

Paul Ryan and Mr. Romney are not my favorite candidates at all, however they are the candidates and whatever their problems, they are far better than the opposition. The real key is that the republicans need the Presidency, the House, and 61 Senators so the Demacruds can't filibuster the Republican agenda. My recommendation is to accentuate the positive and minimize the negative. Elect Republicans at all levels. Then continue to pick off the RHINO's as opportunity allows. Join Ranks, or die!

Ryan and Romney are not those candidates. Their spending plans still show increased spending each and every year. That is the wrong direction. If their plan called for even a modest $1 cut in spending next year it would be less than ideal in my eyes but it would be a step in the right direction. But then I also am looking for a candidate I can trust to mean it. Ryans record shows he can not be trusted to decrease spending. Christian B:
