Everything You Need To Know About The GOP/Ryan 2.0 Budget
My friend Dave Johnson over at Campaign For America’s Future has done us all the great service of translating this year’s version of the House Republican Budget plan into plain English. With his permission, an excerpt:
The new Republican budget plan:
Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke. Tax cuts for the 1%, cuts in the things We, the People do for each other. Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke.
Fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog. Tax cuts for the 1%, cuts in the things We, the People do for each other. Fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog, fog.
Words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words. Tax cuts for the 1%, cuts in the things We, the People do for each other. Words, words, words, words,words, words, words,words, words, words,words, words, words,words, words, words, words, words, words,words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words, words…
There’s more! But you probably get the idea. Check out Dave’s original post at OurFuture.org, “Rec up” the cross-post at DailyKos, Tweet it, Facebook it, G+ it, too!
This piece deserves to go viral, because when more Americans understand the GOP plan, we’ll finally be able to have an honest debate. Right?
Can the American people really be gullible enough to fall for this??? Sadly they can, I will be blogging and FB/Tweeting Mr. Johnson’s article and hopefully it WILL go viral as you suggested. Thank you so much for your blog, I am still kinda new to this and I look to you as a mentor of sorts. Have a great night!!!
He, this one is right on the money.
