That's liberalism in a nutshell.

There are 2 facts here, and only 2, that matter.

(1) when you consider Social Security and Medicare, we are in teh red to the tune of at least $50 trillion.

(2) No matter how you do the math, we can never generate anywhere near that much additional tax revenue in the timeframe needed. Taxes won't put a dent in that.

When you consider those 2 facts, you do one of 2 things. You either...

(1) start making deep, menaingful, necessary cuts to right the ship, or

(2) you do nothing, and leave a huge mess in the laps of your children.

Liberals not only choose path (2) here, they attack the character of those who support path (1).

I don't want to hear Obama tell me why Paul Ryan is mean. I want to hear Obama (or any liberal here tell me why Paul Ryan is wrong.

Zimmy, Spence, Pauls, Likwid, please...tell me how we raise $50 trillion in the next 75 years, without deep spending cuts.

Obama has been in office 3 years, and has done exactly nothing to curtail entitlement spending.

Sandman is, of course, correct.
