1. There is plenty to criticize Ryan about, but spending time with his family is not one of them.
|
I remember when President Obama was first elected, and the First Lady commented in an interview that it was the first time that he got to spend more time with their family. Before that, he was in Springfield as a state senator and then in DC as a senator. He was finally going to be home at night!

61. I am disappointed that you'd think anyone here would be critical of him for spending time with
|
his family. I think people here are throwing the BS flag on his hypocrisy. He was quick to use the "I want to spend more time with my family" card on one hand, then has a completely different story when asked if he would be willing to sacrifice that time with family, if he is president. And his comeback that he drug his family along on the campaign trail for "family time" is absurd.

64. My point was that maybe he thinks he can do both.
|
In my reply, under the heading, I recounted how the Obamas were pleased that the President would be home more than when he held other offices.
I have no way of knowing how much time any of them actually spend with their families. Maybe Mr. Ryan did take his children on the campaign trail. He has young kids... and he probably wants to be with them, just as any other young family would. I am no Paul Ryan fan to be sure, but I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt on this one before assuming that he was a liar and a hypocrite. That's all.

67. I understand and am not accusing you. But my point is that when asked if he could do both
|
be Speaker (which takes up a lot of personal time) and spend quality time with his family, he said no he would not be Speaker because he knew he couldn't do both. So he can't do both as the Speaker but could do both as the President. Smells like hypocrisy to me.

I don't want to be Speaker because the crazy Tbaggers won't follow a leader, and it's embarrassing to even be associated with them because they're a) stupid, b) hate-mongers, and c) throw temper tantrums worse than a 2-yr old.
