Oblamer is on TV with his bully pulpit blasting the Ryan budget with all sorts of scare tactics like it will cut government programs taht made this country great (that statement says a lot if he believe it is government programs that made this country great).

But what I don't get, is the budget he proposed got zero votes in favor. 414 members of congress, dems and republicans, all voted against it.

This guy is so out of touch that he will blast a plan that has a high level of bipartisian support, and growing ... they hold up his budget as the direction we need to go ... yet it got ZERO votes.

It appears even the dems are getting fed up with him and his agenda and may be getting scared of the wake of his destruction.

I don't think it is the Obama budget or the Ryan Budget--- the beauty of politics used to be the art of compromise. Both sides digging in is not the answer. And from what I read, the Ryan budget does cut a lot of programs. I'm not making a value judgement as to the rightness or wrongness of this, but it is a fact.

I am sure ... we need tough decisions and stop kicking the can down the road.

But the facts is that Ryan's budget has some bipartisian support ... the Obama budget got zero votes from his own party. Good for them. They do not want to associate themselves with a disaster ... yet while Obama is being critical of Ryans budget as the wrong direction, he fails to mention his vision got ZERO support.
