Oh I think Ryan did exactly what he said he was going to do.
He said he would "not shut the government down" and would try to "pass bills". He accepted the job on the premise that the tea-party faction would not carp over the giant stinking turd of a spending bill he would work out with Pelosi.
They told him he would have to adopt the orange suntan but he said no and insisted on a juvenile looking beard so he did show a little spine.
The symbolic removal of the energy export ban is fluff compared to the big money the democrats got for muslim immigration and just about every other absurd project they are working on.
The republicans won control of the House and Senate and then promptly fucked the goat, bought the farm, y'know... gave away the store. I doubt the republicans could competently run the country at this point even if they had the presidency and both houses of congress.
Incompetent is incompetent. You can't fix stupid or expect courage from cowards. I'm almost certain I won't do anymore voting at this point. Better to spend time preparing for the outcome.

yes, except, us "teabaggerds" are the party of "NO" and we like it when nothing gets done and the media hates our party.
Look at who the media is. If they like you, you must be doing something wrong.
It has nothing to do with Statesmanship, it is just a poularity contest, and the media is the judge who declares the winner. And like in Bill Clintons midterm when the congress went republican, Dan Rather still hated the majority and declared "They were acting like children."
If the media hates you, you are probably doing something right and I won't trust another republican until Fox News hates him.
And that is what I like about Trump. He is starting to turn people against the media like Rush Limbaugh did a decade ago.
otherwise, unlike the elite liberals, I just assume everybody is at least as intelligent as I am and can see through the media and their lies. Even the Russians could finally see through the lies of Pravda. And if a Russian can do it, an American can do it ten times better (due to our cultural superiority as a result of living 200 years in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.)

You know you have the right candidate when Karl Rove starts talking bad about him/her.
Well, they despise Trump, except maybe for Hannity.
Wisconsin Tea party , others, out to primary Paul Ryan. http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/201...ker-paul-ryan-out-of-congress-picks-up-steam/
Remember the shock and outrage among the republican establishment when Eric Cantor was primaried by unknown Dave Bratt? Taking out the Speaker would be tne times as big. Whoo-hoo.
As one of the commentators to the article noted, even if the effort to primary Ryan is unsuccessful, all it would take is for a meaningful number of republicans to vote for his democrat opponent and end of Ryan.

awesome... we should all help the democrats vote him out.. I hope they get a good candidate. We should then donate money to those opposing Ryan.

Non-discretionary spending is a matter of law.
Obama has been a low discretionary spender by historical standards.
