|| Pennsylvania Senator Pat Toomey will release the Senate GOP's budget proposal on Tuesday. ||

Path To Prosperity Part II.

If there is one lesson to be learned from the Democrats ObamaCare debacle,

It is that Americans prefer to take their change one small step at a time.

Although Paul Ryan’s “Path to Prosperity” might be exactly what the nation needs,

The Senate has decided to push a slower, more incremental deficit reduction plan.

Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) is expected to unveil a budget blueprint Tuesday that leaves Medicare alone, the strongest signal yet that Senate Republicans have no intention of duplicating an ambitious — and controversial — overhaul put forward by the House GOP.

There is no doubt that the incessant demagoguery from President Obama and his party,

Along with some of the backlash from seniors,

Scared Senate Republicans enough to make them slow down their pace of change.

Especially when it comes to entitlements like medicare.

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. - Ephesians 6: 12-13
