[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]I dont think we are comparing apples to apples here.

If we want to talk about what to do about Medicare, then both sides do the same "cutting" but there are differences in assumptions and actual revisions that both sides differ on.

In regards to a budget, Ryan is the only one with a budget plan. It just so happens that part of that plan involves the meedicare changes along with a host of other things.

Obama doesnt really have a budget plan to speak of and this is what republicans are arguing and attacking him on. Were so focused on medicare right now that we dont see through all his back and forth junk.

Im a dem so I have no real business defending ryan but I think when you are talking budgets, the romney team has a plan (agree or not) while obama just has general themes and ideas.

I am still waiting on the debate on getting the economy in order to happen. [/quote]

I'm sorry, but you are terribly uniformed. The President submits a budget annually to Congress.This is normally a big event with plenty of media coverage. People line up to get one of the printed copies. The budget for Fiscal Year 2013 which begins Oct. 1 is right here:

This is far more detailed than anything Romney/Ryan have produced.

I understand that all of us are inundated with talking points. But, once in a while it is worth stopping and thinking about things. Would Obama really be able to serve almost a full term as President without having a budget?
