Mitt Romney's VP pick . . . PAUL RYAN!!

xmacro

Just heard him give a speech - I love this guy. He's a policy wonk and can go toe to toe with anyone over the numbers, but more importantly - the guy has passion. He not only makes the economic case, he does something that Mitt Romney doesn't - he makes the moral case - for American Exceptionalism, for fiscal sanity, for asserting American values without shame. You can hear in his voice that he actually believes what he says when he talks about what he wants to do. It's gonna be a good election with him in the mix.

I do not pay so much attention on who picks who or who's policy is what. As we all know that both Democrate and Repulican voted to bail out mismanaged corporations and now blaming at each other. What I care about is not in broken promises and more robust policies. The policies have been there because our founding fathers did that job very well. We need implementation with little modification and sound judgement. things are not that bad except the behavior of our politicians and the policy makers. They need to understand that we do have two major political parties with different believe but at the end we have only one nation. We vote for them and pay their salaries to run this country with sound judgement. We do not believe in the way they are operating the country and both side need to listen to the people and restore the confidence and trust ASAP.

No offense, but if he needs to expand on that for you, the debate is worthless.

I see....so youd rather hold you opinion in the sight of PROOF to show you otherwise? You're right, you should exit this conversation.

Dude...suggesting federal employment numbers are the end all be all of the grasp of big government over their citizens is ignorant. So yes...I will exit this conversation, as arguing with brick is not something I find appealing. Have fun looking at numbers, freedom isn't a statistic. And to suggest that during the current administration is honestly... Yeah...I'll exit.

The free exchange of ideas is a good thing. I would not enjoy seeing someone who can offer a civil, valuable contribution to this, or any other discussion, withdraw simply because someone else suggested it. I may not agree with some of the opinions offered on this forum, but so what? That doesn't make those opinions any less valuiable to the conversation. Just my 2 cents.

So many of us blame the size of the government without questioning - who bankrupted the Nation? The private corporations then took bailout money from the government(tax payers funds) and now will not hire citizen back. However, our policy makers(both Democrate and the Republican) can not ignore the accountability the tax payers vested on them. This is not the time to blame at each other rather than accept the mistake and move on with sound policy.

As to Ryan, I listened to the morning talking heads and have read much of what has been written since yesterday and the worst thing I've read is that he is a right-wing ideologue. He is on the right, and he does stick to his ideals. What's wrong with that? Actually, the relative silence from the left would indicate that Romney make a wise choice.
