Instead Ryan portrayed more of a long waiting game: If they wont help fix our entitlements, then we have to buy time, he said. We have to keep the bond markets at bay for the sake of our people.
Later he returned to the same point. The horizon before us might seem narrow. But believe me: Its going to grow, he promised his conservative audience. As the president implements his agenda, the results will fall far short of the rhetoric. And they wont be pretty. We will have tepid growth and deficits health-care price controls and rationing.
Ryan was most scathing toward Obama. But as a major player in the budget debate taking shape in the new Congress, the chairman also took a more pessimistic view than Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) had this week.
