Protesting Paul Ryan in style
March 23, 2017 6:16 AM   Subscribe

Paul Ryan will be headlining two fundraisers in the next two days: tomorrow evening in downtown Chicago and Saturday evening in Racine. Mr. DrGail and I will be demonstrating at both of these, but could use some help coming up with pithy signs we can carry. Topics could include the ACHA or really anything else. Ideas?

The AARP is sending people dressed in squirrel suits to lobby Congress to vote against the bill because, uh, it's "nuts."

How quickly can you find a couple of squirrel suits?

I think some costumes and/or signs based around this photoshoot would be hilarious.

But I am feeling especially petty this morning.

"Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose," a reference to the AHCA.

Give him hell. I can't make it Friday night.

I've been going with "Why do you want my parents to die?" but if you can be funnier about it, that would be great. Maybe "HEY RYAN-- You make me sick!"

Something more concise but along the lines of: Social Security survivor benefits paid for your education. Now let someone else have the chance.

How about the economic efficiency of converting Trump Tower into a for-profit prison for treasonist domestic terrorists? So much efficiency and effective government agency! Ryan should love it! Maybe call it the 11/9 Tower of Terror?

Via the Yell-O-Tron I've seen people chanting YOUR LAST TERM and that's pretty succinct.

#BetterWay ? No way!

Your cowardice will come right back AHCA

And consider using the falsum symbol.
