Paul Ryan’s America is the Republican Party Ideal: White White White (and he’s proud of it)

Share

Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-Wisc) posted this photo to his Instagram page. This is the Republican party. Look at this hard, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida. Can you find a non white person in this picture? Not even a waiter walking through the room. This is America circa 1947. And this is in the 8th year of a black president. Shameful.

This week, and for the next couple, politics and showbiz are interchangeable. Just wait til D list celebrities Scott Baio, Antonio Sabato Jr and Kimberlin Brown speak at the RNC. They’re not even the D list. They’re the duh list.
