Conditionally Yours...Or Not


Following last night's announcement by failed 2012 VP candidate Rep. Paul "Lyin'" Ryan that he would accept the Speaker of the House position only if certain conditions were met, those conditions aren't selling to the radical nihilist "Freedom Caucus" in the House. Right-wing radical Representatives like bigot Steve "Cantaloupe Calves" King, and delusional hayseed Tim Huelskamp rejected Ryan's conditions because it would cede power to him that's held by their 40-some tea bagging Rethuglican colleagues. And to think that just three years ago, Lyin' was put on the Rethuglican ticket as the "real conservative" balance to corporate shape-changer Willard "Mittens" Romney.

Wingnut media figures are also piling on Lyin', from the likes of hate radio's Laura Ingraham and Mark Levin, to the far right internet world's panjandrum Erick Erickson and the Drudge Report, calling him everything from "Emperor Ryan" and "moronic" to "spoiled," and threatening a far-right grass roots revolt if the "Freedom Caucus" goes along with the conditions.

Nothing is more satisfying than to watch this cage fight of radical nihilists and their would-be right wing overlords. Chickens coming home…..
