Free advice to Republicans: Don't Make Dumb Proposals

by: Zappatero

Republicans, and Republicans like Jeff Crank - who call themselves "Tea Party"-ers, are all choked up that Barack Obama had the nerve to question Paul Ryan's budgetary dagger to the heart of the Middle Class. The criticism is well-deserved and based on facts, those pesky things Republicans want us all to ignore. "Absurd and highly misleading", "flawed and contrived", "a 100% tea party wet dream" and even worse criticisms were left out by the newly uncivil Obama. But Republican Ryan - Chairman of the House Budget Committee - amazingly forgot about something economists call "inflation" and the all-too-recent history of the housing market in his budgetary assumptions.

Republican fee-fees may have been hurt, but I guarantee you that Pythagoras spun in his grave when Ryan's budget was released.

Through all the noise Congressman Anthony Weiner had the best response and most cogent advice for Republicans:

Don't make dumb proposals.

Though that's the last piece of advice Republicans will ever take Obama's criticisms were exact and moral. He was cheered on the left, scorned on the right (what's new?) and left only one thing to be answered: will he follow his tough words with the deeds to salvage something of this economy and will he instill a bit of confidence in others with (D)'s behind their names I'm looking at you, Senators) who congenitally cave in to Washington, DC's conventional wisdom on taxes and the budget?
