CONSERVATIVES RALLY AGAINST ‘MAFIOSO-STYLE’ PAUL RYAN SPEAKERSHIP DEMANDS

[WestVirginiaRebel]

:

Conservatives are coalescing movement-wide against an effort by House Ways and Means Committee chairman Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) to ascend to the Speakership in the wake of outgoing Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-OH)’s forthcoming resignation.

 

“Paul Ryan is Boehner 2.0, except worse. Boehner didn’t keep his promises, but at least he made them,” ForAmerica chairman Brent Bozell said in a statement.

 

Ryan is making no promises to do anything to advance a conservative agenda. He is demanding a Mafioso-style loyalty oath to his moderate agenda. He has promised nothing, nothing at all to advance the conservative cause. No wonder he has an “F” conservative rating. He’s demanding conservatives support him. No wonder Obama and Reid and Pelosi like him.

 

George Rasley of ConservativeHQ, legendary conservative Richard Viguerie’s shop, says Ryan’s demands amount to the end of democracy in America.

 

“In a bizarre act of arrogance unprecedented in American political history, establishment Republican Paul Ryan has spelled out the terms under which he will accept the third highest office in our constitutional republic and they amount to nothing less than the destruction of democratic government in America,” Rasley wrote on Wednesday. “What Ryan announced to the House Republican Conference last night was a set of conditions under which he would accept the Speaker’s gavel that amount to discarding any pretense that the House of Representatives is ‘the Peoples’ House,’ as in We the People, to make it simply ‘Paul’s House.’”

 

 

What each of them is referring to is an effort by Ryan to eliminate the procedure known as a “motion to vacate the chair”—the mechanism by which Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) pressured Boehner to resign, a process that has been in place since the early 1800s—something that is infuriating Republicans conference-wide, especially conservatives.
