In our upside-down turned world of Orwellian politics, a presidential campaign ticket of John McCain and Paul Ryan could very well serve a good purpose.
But Ryan would be taking a step down because the last I heard, he wants to be president when he grows up. Other than having entertainment value high enough to be front-page news in his hometown Janesville Gazette newspaper, this is a none-story fabricated out from the hallucinations of the neo-con gasbag Robert Novak.
And to put it another way, the fast-talking un-inspiring Ryan is everything Barack Obama is not. To his credit though, he would accurately portray the audacity of the status quo and no one in the House of Representatives symbolizes the legacy of George W. Bush any better than Ryan. If you're happy with the direction the country has been headed in for the past 8 years, Ryan is definitely your guy.
Ryan would work well with a double-talking war-monger like McCain in a Jekyll and Hyde effort to continue the Bush Doctrine of defunding the Fed with tax cuts, while shifting the burden onto local jurisdictions. They could change McCain's “Straight-Talk Express” to “Class War Express,” sell out Social Security to private investment firms and turn all remaining public assets over to their corporate campaign cronies.
Regarding illegal immigrants, Ryan backs the corporate sponsored "you're good enough to work here, but not good enough for anything else" guest worker program. Let’s face it, millions of Americans want to break the country and these two would fire up that base. It's a movement that needs to be confronted once and for all, and the sooner the better. McCain should take Novak’s advice and go for it.
