A video of former Clinton White House chief of staff Erskine Bowles began circulating in conservative news outlets today. In the clip, the Democratic co-chair of President Obama's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform gives high praises to Paul Ryan's budget plan.
"I'm telling you, this guy is amazing. I always thought I was OK with arithmetic. This guy can run circles around me," Bowles tells a class of students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
"He is honest, he is straightforward, he is sincere. And the budget he came forward with is just like Paul Ryan. It is a sensible, straightforward, honest, serious budget and it cut the budget deficit.
And a swell video it is, but Ryan could do nothing to turn Obama from his course. Nor could he do anything to turn a President Romney from his. He’d go in a closet for 4-8 years, coming out as often as one takes out funeral attire.
That’s all Ryan is to Romney — attire.
Unless it’s Romney’s funeral, Ryan will be sidelined, neutralized, laid off, kicked upstairs, pastured, on ice.
Or am I missing some portion of the US Constitution?
What I like about Paul Ryan is that he does not have to be schooled on our economy and financial systems; he is the teacher.
Unlike Obama who has to have someone feed him his talking points via teleprompter, and who does not have the capacity to understand; he just memorizes without that deep, down understanding.
awesome.
forwarding that to my leftist friends.
