Obama camp should challenge Ryan to post an Power Point explaining the Romney budget

WTF you "don't have time" there are only a few major deductions that could possibly pay for the "cuts" they promise. Do a PP of some possible scenarios of what goes and what stays, to make that math happen.

Like, $77,000 deduction for ballet horsie: STAYS!

Home mortgage deduction: GOES!

It's like Bill Clinton said, ARITHMETIC. Do us a chart. We will make time to watch it.

There is no way he can do any excel sheet that would balance out their promises of this fraudulent "plan." LIARS! But, go ahead, try it, post it online, we've got all day suckers.

Maybe, if you really bend over backwards to help Ryan out with his dilemma, he can get away with saying there was insufficient time during a short TV interview to cover all the details, but what, hasn't he ever heard of the internet?!?

Put it on the web Ryan, let all the insomniacs read it while trying to fall asleep. Let the experts pour over it and boil it down and write heavily researched Sunday columns for the rest of us to ponder. There is room on the web to post all of those pesky details, and you can explain them there to your heart's content. Or are you just calling Americans too stupid to understand the pivotal issues of this election campaign?

It couldn't be that there are no details, could it?
