Daniel Patrick Moynihan said that the big institutions of government (tax code and education system to some extent), (Medicare and Social Security especially) need reform because
1)they were designed for an earlier era, 2)they are becoming unfordable, 3) They are CROWDING out other good Liberal purposes: (education, transportation, safety net for poor). 
He thought the Democrat party should reform them because they had created them and they had an obligation to fix them.  He said that if the Democrats were unwilling to do it than the Republicans MUST lead.
Then Paul Ryan steps up to the challenge...
Paul Ryan has become "Mr.Big" in the GOP because he had the courage to touch the third rail.  Typically Mr.BIG's are on their party's ticket because the campaigns often end up being about them anyway.  Being brilliant helps as well.  A debate with Biden is not a fair fight.  Old Joe might have to forfeit.  Obama wouldn't be able to keep up with him during the campaign.  Ryan could re-tabulate half the federal budget in the time it takes Obama to string four words together.

Paul Ryan Challenges Critics

At some point you actually have to do something about problems.  If we aren't going to talk about solving critical problems, than how can we solve them?  We don't treat Americans like children, that's what we have democrats are for.   


Also, seniors being completely unaffected by ALL of Ryan's plans would flock to Obama why?

Ryan doesn't have any negatives because the democrats haven't passed (or seriously proposed) a budget in three years... They can't criticize a serious budget without drawing attention to the fact that they aren't serious.  That is a major bonus not a negative.  The democrats will not be able to resist creating their own death spiral.  If he isn't the VP Romney risks not being able to defend the slander on Ryan.

You want to stop the lying?

Typically when you accuse someone of lying you state something contrary to what they said...  I can't even respond because you have failed to do so.  I'm guessing that you think A budget passed in 2009 (3 years ago) is relevant to something, but I'm not sure what as that confirms what I said.

Here is an outline of everything:

It has been 1,085 days since the Senate passed a budget, which is 2.97 years.  Want to apologize?
