Republicans’ fiscal 2012 budget blueprint, released by House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, would also scrap President Barack Obama’s health-care law, remake federal welfare programs and allow oil and gas companies to drill more freely.
It cuts $6.2 trillion over the next decade compared to Obama’s 2012 budget proposal. Compared to current policy levels, it slashes $5.8 trillion in spending. See text of plan from House Budget Committee web site.
The GOP budget lands in the middle of an intense debate about government spending and debt, and comes a day after Obama announced his 2012 re-election bid. By presenting a plan to lock in spending cuts, replace Obama’s health-care law and allow new Medicare beneficiaries to choose private plans, Republicans say they’re leading where the president has failed.

I hope it passes
Finally, a step forward
Paul Ryan was very impressive this morning. I flipped from Fox to CNN and was surprised that CNN covered what Ryan had to say.
The message to Republican politicians is ‘Get serious or get lost!!’
Decades of ‘compromise’ have produced the COMPLETELY AVOIDABLE situation we have NOW.
We cannot continue to support leaders who show up in DC lost, lame and winded..... NO MORE business as usual.
The more critical the economic situation, the more clear the road ahead appears. You would have to be plumb dumb to miss all the cues, no matter what your ‘politics’!!!
We KNOW how all this happened, so we know how to undo the thing.
The problem that Liberals are faced with is that they DO NOT want to admit their programs have failed AND have broken the bank in the process. Consequently they don’t want to alter or omit any of these ‘programs’. Liberals are terminally blind to the basic facts of how individuals become wealthy and independent … so how THIS NATION became wealthy and independent is a mystery to them, as well!!!

As usual.
The problem lies in the fact that a critically large segment of the American voting population is too stupid, lazy, self-interested and/or ill-informed to recognize just how impressive and important what Ryan has to say actually is.
Yeah...they PROPOSE it. But the RINOs and limp-wrists will run like the sheep they are when it comes time to actually DOING it.
Read the comments section! OMG these trolls are investing money?
Good Lord, no wonder we are in so much trouble ! So many deranged Liberals, so few brains, indoctrination on parade.
I need a shower.
I DONT WANT NO GODDAM 10 YEAR SPENDING CUT- I WANT 1.5 TRILLION SPENDING CUT NEXT YEAR AND KEEP IT THAT WAY~!!
A 6 TRILLION SPENDING CUT IS GOODFOR$HIT IF THEY SPEND 15TRILLION MORE INTO DEBT
GODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITGODDAMITTHESEFARGINBATIGESAREPISSING ME OFF~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That RESONATES!!!
“by $6.2 trillion over 10 years”
This “Over XX Years” is BS. It is hype, it is propaganda. No Congress is required to continue with the cuts, and the years picked is simply retarded. “10 YEARS” might as well be “100 BAJILLION YEARS!!!”
Simply put, the VAST majority of these claims have little to no cuts now and claim later congresses will continue with even larger cuts later, of which they never do.
OH THE HUGE MANATEE!!!!!!!
Women and Children hit the hardest. This will disenfranchise minorities. Millions of jobs will be lost. Halliburton Halliburton!!!! Worst economy since Hoover. It is the extremists who are doing this.
Liberalism is in fact a mental disorder.
Any cuts outside our borders or are cuts only on Americans?
No, they're not blind. They want you poor and dependent. It keeps them in power and their wealthy sponsors in control.
$6.2 trillion of future growth.
Remember this Congress does not bind future Congresses.
Is it really necessary to use such language, and take the Lord’s name in vain on a conservative website?
I am convinced that Liberals do not comprehend wealth. For them... everyone who has a job is wealthy and has no right to more than the guy who can’t seem to get out of bed before 10:00 a.m.
For them, there is no stigma associated with an aversion to W O R K!!!!!
