Joseph Farah on presumptive speaker: 'Who needs this guy?'
By all accounts, Paul Ryan is a very nice fellow. He’s a good family
man. He’s an impressive orator. He’s smart. He’s good-looking. But he would be
one of the very worst choices Republicans could make for speaker of the House. Why
do I say that? The way I explain it to people outside the
beltway is this: He’s a more attractive version of John Boehner. He’s a more
articulate version of John Boehner. He’s a smarter version of John Boehner. But make no mistake about it; he’s every bit
as much an establishment Republican as John Boehner.….
Curtis Ellis spotlights GE's moving of 350 positions to Canada
Paul Ryan’s free-trade
policies have just cost the people of his district their jobs. General Electric announced it will close the plant
in Ryan’s district that manufactures gas engines and move the operation to
Canada. This is fine with Mr. Ryan. He
has taken the European Union principle of the free flow of people, goods and
capital across borders and adopted it as his own worldview and philosophy. President Obama praised Ryan for his stand
on immigration and trade, policies that would make it easier for global
corporations to import people or products from overseas without worrying about
pesky things called national borders. As chairman of the House Ways
and Means Committee, Ryan led the charge to give Obama extra-constitutional
powers to enact the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a sweeping international
regulatory body, and strip Congress of its ability to amend whatever pact Obama
proposes.
We have learned that the pact
– what Obama calls “the rules for the world economy” – will make it easier for
companies to bring foreign guest workers into this country, as well as ship
jobs out of this country. Should he
become speaker of the House, Ryan will be in charge of shepherding Obamatrade
through the House. The 350 GE workers
making engines in southeastern Wisconsin are the latest but by no means the
only victims of Ryan’s open-borders philosophy………..
Carl Jackson advocates for 'principle-based' approach to leading House
Paul Ryan’s
ability to communicate legislation is masterful. It’s his depth of conservative
conviction that has left many wondering if he’s the right man for the job as
speaker of the House at this moment in history.Many Republicans were upset when
the Freedom Caucus initially withheld its support from Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis.,
in his bid for speaker. I suspect they caved due to the time limitation Ryan
placed on them, in addition to insurmountable outside pressure. Nonetheless,
the office of speaker is so consequential it’s worth fighting over, and those
that stood for Rep. Daniel Webster, R-Fla., should be applauded not despised. Under Article I, Section 2, of our
Constitution, the founders gave the House of Representatives the power to
choose its speaker and other officers. Since “the People’s House” has a direct
impact upon local municipalities and their citizens, it is our last line of
defense from a power-hungry federal government that will take the shirts off of
our backs if we allow it. In the book “The Making of America,” the duties of
the speaker are outlined:…..
Sessions: 'Great danger' of amnesty in 2017
by
More than 9 in 10 Republican voters oppose Ryan-Rubio
immigration agenda. Sen.
Jeff Sessions is echoing the concerns of other prominent conservatives that the
events unfolding now in Washington could lead to mass amnesty in 2017. “The word is… that 2017 is the year to watch
for immigration,” radio host Laura Ingraham asked Sessions. “What are the
chances… that if Rep. Paul Ryan is Speaker and Hillary Clinton is President of
the United States, or Sen. Marco Rubio is President of the United States
that they would move in the first 100 days to push a massive, similar [to the
‘Gang of Eight’] immigration reform bill?”
Sessions replied, “I think there’s a great danger that that would
happen.”….. Sessions explained in the interview, “There’s a great danger to
elect a Speaker of the House who is a leading advocate for two major issues
today — trade and immigration — and advocating against the wishes of the
Republican voter.”…… Since Wisconsin voters sent Paul Ryan to Washington, the United States
has brought in a population that is nearly triple the size of the population of
their state. Yet under the Ryan-Rubio
vision for a New American Century, those numbers would be even larger......
