Well, it seems like my post of just a couple days ago was prescient. Romney's announcement today of Paul Ryan is further proof of his willingness to grovel at the feet of the Tea Party. Even right wing extremist Newt Gingrich described Ryan's Medicare proposal as “right-wing social engineering.” Gingrich's full quote from May 2011 “I don’t think right-wing social engineering is any more desirable than left-wing social engineering,” he said. “I don’t think imposing radical change from the right or the left is a very good way for a free society to operate.”  

This is the same Ryan who would end Medicare, privatize Social Security and eviscerate Federal spending while allowing the tax inequity to grow. 

Only once question (for the moment). How has the right conned it base into believing that repeating the failures of the past will have a different outcome this time? Okay, one more question (for the moment). How has the right conned it base into believing that taxing the rich less and the Middle Class more is in the best interests of the country or in the best interests of the very middle class that is paying the most.
