FUNNY, THEY WERE PRAISING HIM JUST A FEW MINUTES AGO: Democrats Gearing Up To Bash Paul Ryan Again.
As Democrats send wistful goodbyes to outgoing House Speaker John Boehner, they’re offering a less-warm welcome to the man slated to replace him. On immigration, the budget, and the federal workforce, GOP leader-to-be Paul Ryan is quickly becoming a chief Democratic villain in Washington.
Even before he takes the gavel—or gets elected by the House—Democrats’ messaging on Ryan has quickly shifted. Once the “adult in the room” who represented the House’s best chance at order, Ryan is now the budget-slashing fiend he was during his vice presidential campaign.
I dunno, a “budget-slashing fiend” sounds pretty good to me.
