Parties Begin Staking Out Ground For a Deficit Deal

It's too bad that the plans from both sides of the aisle are so lame! Paul Ryan doesn't seem to realize that his plan is only tinkering on the edges at best. Balancing the budget 20 years from now does not impress me, nor should it impress anyone. The plan coming from the democrats is really no better than the Republican plan; it's only a difference in which undeserving beneficiary receives our tax dollars, and how they squander that money. There is no difference between the two parties, so all that we get from this latest babble is the equivalent of trying to cut down a redwood tree using a butter knife. Neither side understands that the only way we will get our fiscal house in order is to take drastic measures. We have become a house of cards, and it is just a matter of time before it collapses on itself.

Only Ron Paul has a plan to cut $1 trillion in his first year as President. Only Ron Paul will balance the budget in 3 years, as apposed to 20 years with either of the other plans. If Obama is re-elected, things will continue to get worse until we have another depression. Mitt Romney will not win the Republican nomination, so I won't even waste my time talking about him.

In the end, it will be Ron Paul vs. Obama. The choice is clear.....solve our economic woes and get our fiscal house in order with Ron Paul's plan, or stand in a bread line next year and ask yourself, "What happened to our nation Mr. Obama?"

Ron Paul 2012!! See you at the convention!

If you US didn't spend all their money on the war, they wouldn't have to raise the debt ceiling. They either have to raise the debt ceiling or cut spending costs or China might take over. If you don't know what the US debt ceiling is, this article gives an awesome explanation on it.
