Open Thread: Ryan to Release GOP Budget

April 5th, 2011 9:16 AM

Rep. Paul Ryan, chairman of the House Budget Committee, is slated to release the Republican budget for FY2012 today. He took to the Wall Street Journal to offer some details and tout the need for budget reform. Ryan also created the very slick video you'll see below the break to outline the nation's fiscal situation. Check it out and let us know what you think.

Thoughts? What do you think the media reaction will be to the budget? David Brooks calls it the "most courageous budget reform proposal any of us have seen in our lifetimes." Do you agree?
