Republican Budget Fail?

A satirical clip from "The Late Show with David Letterman" titled "Republican Budget Cut Ideas" illustrates that the budget proposed by Republican Congressman Paul Ryan that recently passed the GOP controlled House of Representatives not only ends Medicare as we know it and gives big tax breaks to the rich, but also engages in the kind of mindless draconian cuts that makes it more extremist than serious.

The clip of David Letterman comes from a longer segment of CBS' April 12, 2011, broadcast of "The Late Show with David Letterman" available online at http://bit.ly/gPxHFY

The images of the Congressional Budget Office's analysis of Paul Ryan's proposed budget comes from the document available online at http://1.usa.gov/eFSH1D

1. this is mistitled to some extent, as the video points out something important missed by commentary

that I've seen-- the HUGE INSANE CUTS in domestic discretionary spending in the Ryan budget proposal.

2. Laugh Out Loud!
