Democrats Threaten Retribution for SS Traitors
Rep. Paul Ryan (R.-Wis.) reports that there are several Democrats who believe in Social Security reform and want to work on a bipartisan measure. But the extremists in party leadership are saying don’t do it, or else:
“We were in planning stages [with friendly Democrats],” said Ryan. But each essentially told him: “I like what you’re doing. I like this bill. I think it’s the right way to go. But my party leadership will break my back. The retribution that they are promising us is as great as I have ever seen. We can’t do it.”
Ryan said he believed the only thing that can assure passage is an outpouring from America’s grassroots.
