Rupert Murdoch's WSJ Says President Obama's Speech to Nation "Most Dishonest in Decades"

More "fair and balanced" news reporting from a News Corporation company, namely the Wall Street Journal: President Barack Obama's speech in response to Paul Ryan's proposal "most dishonest in decades." Most dishonest in decades? Wow, what about the lines of bullsh*t former President George W. Bush  fed us to invade Iraq? Doesn't that rise to a bold level of dishonesty too?  Here's an excerpt from the WSJ:

Did someone move the 2012 election to June 1? We ask because President Obama's extraordinary response to Paul Ryan's budget yesterday—with its blistering partisanship and multiple distortions—was the kind Presidents usually outsource to some junior lieutenant. Mr. Obama's fundamentally political document would have been unusual even for a Vice President in the fervor of a campaign.

The immediate political goal was to inoculate the White House from criticism that it is not serious about the fiscal crisis, after ignoring its own deficit commission last year and tossing off a $3.73 trillion budget in February that increased spending amid a record deficit of $1.65 trillion. Mr. Obama was chased to George Washington University yesterday because Mr. Ryan and the Republicans outflanked him on fiscal discipline and are now setting the national political agenda.

Mr. Obama did not deign to propose an alternative to rival Mr. Ryan's plan, even as he categorically rejected all its reform ideas, repeatedly vilifying them as essentially un-American. "Their vision is less about reducing the deficit than it is about changing the basic social compact in America," he said, supposedly pitting "children with autism or Down's syndrome" against "every millionaire and billionaire in our society." The President was not attempting to join the debate Mr. Ryan has started, but to close it off just as it begins and banish House GOP ideas to political Siberia.

When the middle class, poor & elderly in this country get the same perks as the rich folks, then we will truly be equal and have every right to beg to differ with President Obama's position on taxes. Until then, it is obvious that the Republicans want to get rid of Social Security. If that's the case, please, send me a check for ALL money I have paid into the system thus far and let me worry about my nest egg in my golden years. Tell a poor 80 year old man or woman to invest their own money at the risk of being swindled by the less scrupulous on Wall Street.
