AP Bias on Obama’s Wasteful Budget, Rep.Paul Ryan Responds

From the AP

“AP WASHINGTON: President Barack Obama vowed to fight America’s powerful interest groups as he seeks to push through Congress a budget plan so breathtaking in its scope and ambition that it could help reshape American society.”

Translation: The biggest spending plan. Ever.

But this is Obama we’re talking about, so it’s not spending or wasteful, it’s “breathtaking”.

The bias is deafening. (Did we really expect anything else from the mainstream media though?).

Update: Paul Ryan’s response to the “Breathtaking Budget”, as the AP calls it, is spot on:

The concern that I have with this budget in the macro sense is it’s almost as if we’re relocating the headquarters of the American economy from Main Street, from New York, from Chicago, from Silicon Valley, to Washington, D.C. and putting Washington, D.C. in the driver’s seat of the American economy. That is not what we’ve done in this country. That’s what they do in Europe, and it doesn’t work very well.

Don’t miss Paul Ryan’s latest piece in the Wall Street Journal, another example of why the Republican Party is the Party of Ideas.
