Republicans, Or The Better Alternative

Why Does Anyone Still Take Paul Ryan Seriously?
Paul Ryan's House Budget Echoes Republican Vision From 2012

In A Stinging Post-Mortem, GOP Promises To Change

What they've really promised is to be more elusive and vague in their messaging, and more active in their marketing.
"The way we communicate our principles isn't resonating enough," said GOP Chairman Reince Priebus. 
See, Republicans don't want to change their racist, homophobic, business-pandering, class warfare, corrupt, regressive ways. They just want to reword their message so voters will think their sow's ear is a silk purse. Republicans have learned nothing.

House Progressive Have The Best Answer To Paul Ryan
The correct counterpart to the unbridled ambition of the Ryan budget isn’t the cautious plan released by the Senate Democrats. It’s the “Back to Work” budget released by the House Progressives.

The Cutting Medicare Meme

Obama is cutting Medicare.

This is a talking-point the Republicans are trying to create. Aimed specifically at the elderly voting block, this campaign strategy - the bad black man is gutting/stealing your medical care - is shamelessly and sadly being pushed by the Republicans. What a great example the Republican party is setting for our country - lie, cheat, or steal your way to the top.

Reince Priebus: Obama's Medicare cuts leave "blood" on his hands

"Republicans frequently use this Medicare talking point, even though it's false. While the Affordable Care Act does reduce Medicare spending, as Politifact has explained, 'Those dollars aren’t taken out of the current budget, they are not actual cuts, and nowhere does the bill actually eliminate any current benefits.'"

As usual, this terrible thing Barack Obama is supposedly doing, is just a figment of the Republicans' imagination.
