Vice President candidate Paul Ryan bitterly attacked for betraying Irish Catholic principles

Forgotten your roots EdMahoney you seem to have an "I'm all right Jack" approach to socio-economic circumstances.

Paul Ryan is about as Irish as Eisenhower was German.

Regarding the Catholic Bishop's letter regarding the Budget - What is the Budget? It is the money tax payers (individuals & corporations), but not the Church, pay to the U.S. government to support our country. Therefore, when the Catholic Bishops refer to the budget they are referring to us tax payers!!! Note: the Bishop's letter is actually saying tax payers "HELP" the least of these, the poor, the hungry... It does not say to "PAY FOR" them. And it certainly doesn't say don't work, just sit on your butt & still get "HELP". AMEN

This is B/S - The Irish came to this country without a pot to pee in or a window to throw it out! With hard work, educating their children they made super inroads as Irish-Americans. That's what al 4 of my grandparents did & I'm proud of it. My wife & I along with our children were brought up that way and are very happy, successful & fulfilled people. Now, we here these whiners, who expect everything handed to them without working & paying for the privalege of being Americans. As far as I'm concerned they can leave this country and go suck off some socialistic society.

I appreciate a good sense of humor, take care.

Those pesky pigeons just keep following me. I feed them titbit's as I feed you commonsense.

Pittsburghkid Why do Ryan's proposed tax code reforms favor the wealthy and the corporations? When he was pushing privatizing Social Security he marketed his pitch as pro "the people" when in truth it was pro Wall St.

There is no dignity in living off the government. Programs such as Social Security, and Medicare are program, in which the receiver paid into, and not charity. Ryan wants to reform these programs. It was the Government, which diverted money from the S.S. Trust fund into the general fund.

Paul Ryan..A pure political operative from the first day his feet hit the pavement in Washington. Ryan supported the Bush initiative to privatize all Social Security funds ( how would that have worked in the 2008 financial collapse) and would like to end Medicare (as we know it) and replace it with a $6000. voucher program that the sick and elderly would have to run around to buy their "yearly" insurance coverage.He's ready and waiting to throw the American middle class under the bus in their old age. There's nothing Irish about this guy or his vision for the future.

Seano time to change your schtick, you are starting to sound like a frustrated old man throwing rocks at pidgeons.

Fox news the fear and smear channel for the American non-thinkers who would believe any bull story

Obviously O'Shea is a New York liberal and believes what the Obama people say. Thank God for the Fox News Network who documents every news story !

he sounds a blue meanie.

Paul Ryan is Palin in pants loves hunting deer!! better watch out he's now hunting the poor and seniors

The religious right believe Paul Ryan's their man - he wants to charge anyone who has an abortion with murder. The billionaires want him to give them tax breaks as he dismantles the New Deal and ends every social welfare program. He is an admirer of Ayn Rand who thought that charity and altruism are evil. Selfishness is his creed, not Jesus'. But seniors have the most to fear of all. He wants to gut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
