She is not ugly but she is damn stupid… The guy is not ugly either, not sure where he stands though, he actually let the guy talk and he wasn’t necessarily asking stupid questions for what I heard.

What a horrid phrase: bitch slaps, so full of awful connotations.
Language. When will they get it that it reinforces concepts?
I can’t even read this article because of that headline.

what i cannot believe ran right under everyone’s radar is that his plan to make a government healthcare plan = to what lawmakers have, or better yet, what they create was shot down….and even here no one is talking about it.

you want to see a good health care plan that cost effective AND provides at least adequate care – make the lawmakers participants in the plan and carry a representational cost.

Whether you’re at either end of the extreme on this issue – i think free healthcare that is equal to the high quality and outstanding customer service of the DMV is as bad as no health care at all.

The federal government subsidizes Ryan’s family health care with about $9,200. He co-pays about $4,300 a year for a grand total of $13,500. Ryan clearly states that his plan (Patients Choice) will give everyone the same coverage as he gets, but for less. Ryan’s PC plan expects families to pay for $13,500 worth of insurance with a $5,700 TAX CREDIT subsidy. At the same time, Ryan’s PC plan relieves employers from the duty of sponsoring a health care plan. How? Because that is how the tax credit is paid for – his plan shifts the tax incentive from the employer to the employee. No more group leverage, you’re on your own. For everyone except himself – the government employee.

Next time you talk with Ryan, ask him if his employer (us!) will be relived of subsidizing his personal family health care plan like his plan does for everyone else.

Ryan forgets that the government plays a role in the free markets whether he likes it or not. He works for the people – not private health care insurers.

Where is the public outcry when MSNBC “lefties” hit the airwaves? Congressman Paul Ryan’s articulate argument against the “Obama Health Care Plan” is clear and on target….so called Republicans like Grassley, and Olympia Snow, should get out of the way and let guys like Ryan lead the charge!

Katrina is sadly miseducated, if she equates government controlled and paid *anything* with capitalism or free market.

My ex used to call me ‘communist’ whenever I criticized taxpayer-funded entitlement programs. He must have gone to the same school Katrina did.

Paul Ryan nailed it with this brilliant point:

What’s concerning about this debate with me is that you’re using capitalist rhetoric to try and move a plan that is inherently anti-market.

Send Ryan a tweet showing your appreciation at http://twitter.com/reppaulryan, or to show him how much we here are watching him, just just the green button to ReTweet the article and add @reppaulryan in the tweet anywhere.

Katrina Vanden Hotair’s arrogance is superseded by her ignorance.
I wish Cong.Ryan was the GOP Chairman – Articulate, intelligent & good looking – he knows how to get facts and the message across effectively.
