Last night Tweety covered the flack the repub congresspeople are taking
on the abolition of Medicare in the Ryan budget. Hooray!
I'm glad he's doing this. Last week Rachel commented on the disparity of coverage beteen the Tea Party eruptions at Town Hall meetings of a year or so ago compared to what these republicans are now facing at home in their meetings. Tweety was laughing at the republican on the videotape trying desperately to "explain" his vote for the Ryan budget to ticked off constituents. It was good coverage. He had David Corn on who made an excellent point: that people in their 20s and 30s whose 50ish parents would not see Medicare under the Ryan plan realize that the financial burden of caring for their aging parents would fall on THEM, so they're not real happy either!
Heh, this is turning out to be SUCH a lose-lose proposition for the pukes!
