April Fool's--It Is Another Paul Ryan Budget

++After last night's Thrilla in Manila,the House GOP had an April Fool's treat for us--Paul Ryan's new budget. This one further cuts the social welfare net for the poor and the middle class, raises taxes on the middle class by $2,000, and ends Medicare after ten years with a voucher plan.

++The White House tally for Obamacare is now at 7.04 million. But John Boehner and Mitch McConnell both said today that they are going to repeal it again.
Charles Krauthammer told Fox News that 7 million wasn't enough and it wasn't worth it.

++Little Ricky Cantor said that the House GOP would issue their own healthcare plan that would address abuses by the IRS and "Benghazi"--yes,the number one killer of Americans.

++John Barrasso doubled down on his belief that the numbers don't mean anything. 

++Carnival Cruz put a poll up on his Facebook page asking whether you were better now or before Obamacare? The answer was a resounding yes at 75%.

++In Kentucky Obamacare has cut the uninsured rate by 40%. 

++Avil Roy, the conservative healthcare wonk warned the GOP about continuing their efforts to repeal Obamacare and said that no there was no "death spirals."
