I'm not genius but it's pretty easy to figure out; our wonkish Representative and former VP candidate Paul Ryan is continuing his campaign of deception. Hey Paul, the elections over.
Here are a number of easy to understand explanations directed at teatards who are mesmerized by the unassuming authoritarian zealot.
Forget deficits: Here Ryan starts with a false premise; new tax revenues are meant for more reckless spending, not deficit reduction. Wrong. Ryan will repeat this a number of times. Ironically, Ryan wants to use our new tax revenues for tax reform, not deficit reduction. NOT DEFICIT REDUCTION. He even inadvertently admits the tax increase increased government revenues, an impossible task when you consider how raising taxes is a job killer...or is it. Ryan's plan wipes out the new tax revenues for tax reform. Nothing has changed! Meaning Ryan keeps his plan for draconian cuts to retirees. From Upfront with Mike Gousha:
Campaigning is Over: It's almost funny to see Ryan "campaigning" against the supposed endless "campaign" of the president, who's simply pushing his plan for deficit reduction. This is all Republicans like Ryan have in their quiver. I've inserted a video clip of Michael Smerconish, who simply points how Republicans don't want the president to use his office, the bully pulpit, to promote his agenda. Obama is vilified for going to the American public; he's accused of "campaigning" even though he's not running for anything; when do old talking points die? One more thing, how many times will Ryan remind us he was the VP candidate?:
Ryan forgot to Google Obama's sequester plan: Ryan gave up substance for silly talking points this time around. If he can't make the numbers work, he'll fall back on a dumb comment like "the president didn't put out his own plan." I've inserted Ezra Klein who makes the Republicans, and Ryan, pay for their pure outright lie:
