House Republican Budget Plan Adds $6 Trillion To Debt

Posted by | April 21, 2011 11:39 | Filed under: Top Stories


Matt Miller correctly believes this fact should be shoved in the face of every Republican who doesn’t want to raise the debt limit: Paul Ryan’s plan adds $6 trillion in debt.

The supposedly “courageous,” “visionary” Paul Ryan plan — which already contains everything Republicans can think of in terms of these spending cuts — would add more debt than we’ve ever seen over a 10-year period in American history. Yet Ryan and other House GOP leaders continue to make outrageous statements to the contrary.

Without blushing. And without anyone calling them on it.

Miller has some good advice for the president:

If I were Barack Obama, my mantra on this week’s debt tour and in the months ahead would be that we should lift the debt limit only by as much debt as is needed to accommodate Paul Ryan’s budget.
