Well, as much as I hate to admit it, the rumor appears to be true: there is a limit to Lyin’ Paulie’s douchebagginess. According to this report from Politico by Rachel Bade and Kyle Cheney, that limit is being reached by Paulie in response to efforts by unlimited congressional mouth-frothers Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) and Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), who want to lynch impeach Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein for, basically, not being their bitch and turning over the files of the FBI to them so they can damn well decide for themselves who the FBI will and will not investigate.
Ryan has done absolutely nothing to rein in the “crazies” (aka “Republicans”) in the House, who scream and screech like banshees at anyone who dares deny their will, but apparently Paulie will draw the line, although with great reluctance, at the impeachment of a government official for, you know, doing his job.
Back in the Obama Administration, hyperventilating Republicans sought to impeach IRS Commissioner John Koskinen over the fake scandal they ginned up regarding IRS approval of the tax exempt status of “Tea Party” organizations. Paulie managed to slow walk his way out of that one, and he’s surely planning to play the same game this time around, since he’s retiring at the end of the year. Good bye, Paulie. No one will miss you.
Afterwords
Ryan always reminds me of high-class hustler who schemes to take over the classiest casino in Vegas, only discover that his “henchmen” are a bunch of 18-year-olds who just want to get high. Well, get high and scream and throw rocks at people and piss in the street.
