Paul Ryan Plan
08/24/12 - GodVoter.org rates Paul Ryan
D, suspects his budget plan
Did Mitt Romney pick Paul Ryan as his running mate because he believes in Paul Ryan
's
economic plan, which is the centerpiece of Paul Ryan
's political identity?
If so, why did Mitt Romney only endorse
Paul Ryan
budget plan ("plan") in December of 2011 after resisting and evading all prior calls to endorse the plan?
And if not for Paul Ryan's plan, why did Mitt Romney
pick Paul Ryan as his running mate in August of 2012?
Having failed to leverage the weak economy to gains at the polls, having failed
to gain traction with the Republican base, and after a gaffes-filled trip abroad
during July, Mitt Romney had nothing more to offer and no momentum heading into
the Republican National Convention.
Mitt Romney chose Paul Ryan, a fiscal conservative*, to try to win
over the Republican base and energize his lackluster campaign, not unlike why
John McCain chose
Sarah Palin,
a social conservative, in 2008.
Discussing the implementation of Paul Ryan's economic plan
naively assumes that
the unconscionably flip-flopped
Mitt Romney platform
will suddenly become reliably conservative or that a President Mitt Romney will fade into
the background and let his Vice President preside over the nation.
Paul Ryan is the bait of yet another Mitt Romney
bait and switch and a new veneer of
conservatism under which to hide his
flip-flops, tax returns and the
truth about his
Mormonism long enough to win the election.
Paul Ryan has been consistently anti-
abortion but weak on homosexual issues. In
2007, he supported the Employee Non-Discrimination Act, which sought to strengthen
homosexual employees' legal rights, and said that his
attitude towards homosexuals is a
“generational thing” that is less important to him
than to older people. He also does not defend the military's
'Don't Ask, Don't Tell'
policy and has said that he will go along with whatever the generals want.
Paul Ryan is a young career politician with no military, executive or foreign policy
experience but with a record of not being honest (
evidences). That he would join and strive to elect as
president a Presiding High
Priest of the
Mormon cult, whose
Jesus is the brother of Satan
also speaks for his judgment and beliefs.
Paul Ryan's candidacy rating of
D
may have been
higher if he had run for the presidency on his own and against
Mitt Romney.
* It should be noted that Paul Ryan has not sought to reduce the federal deficit
and debt as consistently as someone like
Ron
Paul. In 2008, for example, Paul Ryan voted for both the auto industry bailout and
the $700 billion banking industry bailout.
