This plan, that came from the House, has quickly become the defining principal of the Republican
party.
Just yesterday one of their leaders called on all Republican presidential candidate supporters
saying, and I quote "I'm looking for them to embrace our formula in the Ryan Budget," end
quote.
Some of my Republican colleagues seem to have spun themselves into confusion trying to explain where they
stand.
One Republican even went so far as saying,
"Thank God for the Ryan Budget"
That was before trying to explain away through an op ed piece written fairly poorly.
As saying that he changed his mind and now he would vote against it.
After this week, they
won't have to worry about changing their positions 'cause it will be happening when we get this
vote out.
We're going to stand, we Democrats will stand,
what we believe in
cutting the deficit by making very smart wise choices,
by repealing lots of
subsidies to the oil companies...
that are making record profits, and standing up
to our seniors by keeping the promise to protect and strengthen Medicare. As we did
with our health care bill; which; we saved waste fraud abuse five hundred billion dollars extended
the life of Medicare for more than twelve years.
