Daily Caller – Jamie Weinstein – 8/16/2012

Ryan took on America’s entitlement problems anyway, particularly Medicare, because he knew if the programs weren’t addressed they would crush America’s finances and bankrupt the country. He didn’t say his plan was perfect. He was willing to work with other serious colleagues on both sides of the aisle to make it better. In fact, he reworked his Medicare reform with liberal Oregon Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden to improve on an earlier version.

But in the end, so few on the Democratic side came to the table.

When Obama’s Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner appeared before Ryan’s budget committee this year to discuss Team Obama’s preposterous budget proposal — so unworkable and unpopular that it attracted precisely zero votes in the House and Senate — Geithner admitted the president had no plan to deal with America’s tens of trillions of unfunded liabilities embedded in Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.

“We’re not coming before you today to say we have a definitive solution to that long term problem,” Geithner stammered when pressed by Ryan and confronted with a chart that showed America’s finances hurtling off a cliff, based on Obama’s a budget.

"WHAT WE DO KNOW IS WE DON'T LIKE YOURS."

And that, ladies and gentleman, sums up President Obama’s idea of leadership. The word “pathetic” comes to mind, especially after more than three years in office.
