Paul Ryan's Desperate Support of the Contraception Flap and challenger Rob Zerban calls him out!!!

Paul Ryan has been frustrated by the trouble he's had tearing Medicare apart. If you've seen any of the video clips here at Democurmudgeon, like the one below, you might have noticed Ryan's preoccupation with dismantling Medicare. It's Ryan's focal point for god knows what reason. Sure it's a costly program, but come on, we've known for years the baby boomers were going to strain the system. Heck, Reagan and Alan Greenspan put together the surplus fund for that purpose.

But last Sunday Ryan threw the Hail Mary, giving up on his failed plan and hitched his wagon to the "religious freedom" zealots. Check out Ryan's transparent attempt to sound sincere about the trumped up contraception controversy. Ryan knows that this issue alone has the ability to tear all health care coverage into shreds. While he struggles to take on a social issue, he also appears to drool over the possibility this might kill health care:



Ryan's challenger Rob Zerban (zer-BON) not only takes on the contraception issue, but sounds light years ahead of Ryan on the economy. Here's Zerban's interview with Sly in the Morning. Zerban is a small business man that knows economics better than any career politician like Ryan, and his take on the pathetic rantings of Ryan's multiple phony positions is easy to understand, and not the least bit wonkishly obscure:



This reminder: Women's health groups will be gathering outside Rep. Ryan's Janesville office tomorrow (Friday, 2/24) at noon to tell Ryan to Let Women Speak! Join them, click here.
