Funny what happens when the poll results come in. Once three polls emerged last week showing that most Americans are against ending medicare — a central part of the Ryan Budget Plan — whoops, the bold brave era came to a screeching halt. And now this:
WSJ/ABC NEWS: “House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio) said he is “not wedded” to Mr. Ryan’s plan to redo Medicare. “Paul Ryan has an idea that’s certainly worth consideration,” Mr. Boehner said in an interview with ABC News. “I’m for it. It’s our idea. It’s Paul [Ryan]’s idea. Now other people have other ideas. I’m not wedded to one single idea.”
Extend the tax cuts for the Rich? No problem. Cut Services To The Poor, The Sick, The Young and The Disabled? Check…Can we get you anything else Gentlemen?….American’s are in the Mind-Bogglingly Self-Destructive Process of letting A Real Democracy Slip Away.” If there is going to be change,It will be from the people themselves.”
