What Is Obama's Long-Term Plan to Rival the Romney/Ryan Plan?

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Democratic Rhetoric

Your point is duly noted. Does Obama have a plan for the long-term or does he just plan on kicking the can down the road?

If Romney loses, at least we can remind everybody in four years that we had a plan for America's long-term while Democrats wallow in their support of the presidential version of Gray Davis.

Two Words: SIMPSON-BOWLES

Two words describe the Simpson-Bowles plan: MORE TAXES

Is Obama ready to double-down on this?

Why the hell shouldn't he be? It's a bipartisan plan with significant cuts including raising the retirement age, it just doesn't subscribe to Ryan's brand of troglodytic lunacy that it's possible or even desirable to cut the deficit without extensive use of revenue.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

So are we getting a commitment from Democrats on here to PRESSURE the Obama/Biden campaign to fully endorse and commit to Simpson/Bowles? Or are Democrats satisfied with kicking the can down the road, which is the current plan of Obama/Biden?

I prefer Romney/Ryan, but Simpson/Bowles is infinitely preferable to the current trajectory of Obama/Biden.

We'll commit to that if you commit to coming up with some new disgraced politician to unfairly compare the President to.
