'Marvelous'

Paul Ryan's budget plan would cause the gradual demise of the Medicare system and cost 1 million students their Pell grants.

Mitt Romney thinks it's 'marvelous'?



from Carter Eskew at WaPo:

Obama gave a great speech at the Associated Press luncheon where he laid out his general-election message.

It is worth reading not because it will be read and remembered by even a fraction of the American people in its entirety, but rather, it contains many individual pieces of Obama's argument that he will recycle in interviews, rallies and ads for the rest of the campaign.The president was relaxed and funny, even delivering some good digs at Romney's elitism when he noted that the former governor had called Paul Ryan's budget "marvelous." The president noted, dryly, that "marvelous" isn't a word you hear very often describing a budget, or even a word you hear at all very often . . .

All those students will have jobs waiting for them in the funeral services industry.
