But in pointing out that Nixon really doesn?t have a plan to end the Vietnam War?er, I mean, that Romney doesn?t really have a plan to balance the budget?they?ve been talking mostly about Romney?s refusal to identify the tax loopholes and deductions he?ll end. They haven?t mentioned much Romney?s other demonstration of, um, willingness to be specific about extremely important budget matters: His statement that he?ll end all programs that, in his opinion, aren?t worth borrowing money from China for.? Which include Medicaid and Sesame Street.? But what other programs? The effective end of federally supported Medicaid is obviously too serious a subject to joke about, and it needs much more attention from the news media than it?s getting?as well as from the Obama campaign, which should put up ads featuring nursing home residents and nursing home owners; i.e., small-business owners who are jobs creators, to explain the issue. But Obama also should say?yes, say?when he?s campaign in, maybe, Iowa, eastern Colorado, Wisconsin and North Carolina that Romney doesn?t think farm subsidies, flood insurance, hurricane and tornado disaster relief are worth borrowing money from China from.? And when campaigning in North Carolina, Virginia, Ohio and, well, everywhere else, he should say that Romney doesn?t think veterans? benefits are worth borrowing money for China for.? And that that might make it harder to recruit those additional 100,000 people into the armed services that he says he wants to add, although of course he might just have a military draft in mind.? You never know; he?s not all that keen on revealing specifics, after all.? (Does Romney ever think beyond the end of whatever sentence he?s mouthing at the? moment?) Seriously. The only way to start to nail down Romney?s plans is to start actually filling in his blanks.? Say, outright, that Romney plans to end farm price supports, drought relief, disaster relief and veteran?s benefits.? Romney then will have to say that he has no such plans.? Great! Then say that Romney plans to shut down the FDA and the National Transportation Safety Board; a few hundred deaths from dangerous medications and airplane crashes each year aren?t worth borrowing money from China to prevent.? Not when you have more important needs, such as incessantly spiraling tax cuts for the wealthy.? Which, despite his Wednesday protestations, he does think are worth borrowing money from China for. Or here?s another idea: Let?s develop a contest in which the winner accurately predicts Romney?s selections for Programs Worth Borrowing From China For.? And a bonus contest in which the winner correctly calls the tax loopholes and deductions eliminated in Romney?s tax-code revision plan. The winners will be announced on the same day as the announcement of the Publishers Clearinghouse winner for 2015. The prize?? We can have another contest to guess that.
