I suspect the same people who dissent from the Church on many issues. Paul Ryan is a voice of sanity in a city that has gone berserk. We cannot continue on the path we are on. WE DON’T HAVE ANY MONEY!! We are borrowing from China forty cents on every dollar we spend. I know the religious are not expected to be financial wizards but for God’s sake (literally) please have some common sense, Paul Ryan is a man of courage and faith. He is trying to save our country from going over the cliff, Pray for him that he will get some cooperation from Congress instead of questioning his sincerity. In a welfare state we all go down the tubes. (Awaiting moderation? What does that mean??) I’d love to see the names of the Bishops, nuns, and “Social Justice” leaders who signed the letter..

He has elevated the rich to the status of the Elect, and he has disdained all social gospel tenets to keep this alliance with rich fundamentalists over loyalty to his own faith. He has put money and power before any other principle then justifies it with a phony theology made up precisely to give cover to predatory capitalists. And he does not care unless constituents and the general public MAKE him care. He cannot be shamed by the Bishops because he is Catholic in name only and has been assured if he is born again, he never needs to repent of anything because he IS part of the Elect. He's not Catholic anymore. He thinks he's God's chosen. He is one who has thrown his lot in with Dominionists.

He is an acknowledged follower of atheist Ayn Rand 's philosophy and he souind more like her all the time. Rand felt the upper classes had to keep the working stiffs under ther control and bondage. Sounds like Ryan How Ryan has the gall to call himself a Catholic is the height of hypocracy.
