and you know they have promoted him and admire him as weekly standard and other elements of our party. that is important. he s one of the big thinkers of our party. what he did when laying out the budget the obama budget has been dead on arrival budget has been passed by the congress and will be a great enthusiasm. that is the base if romney gets elected it s going to have to be with republican support in the house and no one better than ryan to do that element. and there is a campaign trail will be interesting trail. we ve got just a little bit of time before next break. i want to bring in our digital politics editor hope you re able to join us, are you there? i m here.
the president s budget does none of that. he puts a new board of 15 unelected bureaucrats in charge of rationing me medicare. the president has done nothing to prevent the debt crisis from happening only to put more uncertainty on businesses. uncertainty on taxes. uncertainty on regulations, interest rate and inflation and a debt crisis putting a huge chilling effect on economic growth and it it is because of a fundamental lack of leadership. mitt romney has proven he knows to provide the kind of leadership to prevent these things from happening. chris: the fact is that the democratic senate has not passed a budget in three years. the obama budget was up for a vote in the senate this week and voted down 99-0. and quite frankly as congressman ryan points out the obama budget does nothing about medicare and medicaid and all of the burgeoning economic

here s the math, the buffett rule that billionaires should pay a minimum of 30% would bring in $47 billion. 47 billion dollars over the next decade. the president s budget adds $6.4 trillion to the deficit. according to one estimate, the money you would get from the buffett rule would cover just 17 days of the increased deficit under the obama budget. first of all the president s proposal in total would cut the deficits by $4 trillion over the next decade and put us on a path to where the debt is stabilized and we re able to manage with, just 3% of the total in economy, which is where everyone agrees we need to be. in terms of the buffett rule, i remember when $47 billion seemed like a lot of money. it is a lot of money.
