  1. The GOP confronts its 'stuffy old men' problem

    Give some credit to the Republican National Committee for at least recognizing that the Grand Old Party has a bit too much "old" and not enough "grand." Its recently released 100-page, post-election analysis, put together by veteran party advisers, points...

  3. The unmasking of Paul Ryan and his budget

    Quick! Somebody tell President Obama. Alert the members of Congress. Shout it out to the media: I have balanced the budget!
    Quick! Somebody tell President Obama. Alert the members of Congress. Shout it out to the media: I have balanced the budget! That's right. Me. Bill Press, talk show host. I did it. I can't balance my own checkbook, but I balanced the federal budget. In...

  5. Invest wisely in early childhood

    As we struggle through the fifth year of recession, facing budget cuts, austerity and now the sequester, it may be a good time to re-evaluate our national priorities. Last year, the Reach Out and Read program that distributes books to low-income children from 6 months to 5 years lost its federal grant and this year the Head Start program is being cut back. These cuts will be borne by our most vulnerable citizens.

  7. GOP's effort to roll back healthcare reforms is bad policy

    Bernie Morse, 65, of Century City retired last year from the aerospace industry and joined the ranks of Medicare beneficiaries. The nearly $8,000 he used to spend annually on drugs for a liver condition now will be cut almost in half.

  9. The Medicare debate we need

    One criticism of the Medicare overhaul that House Budget Committee Chairman Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) has championed is that it would shift more and more of the program's costs onto seniors. In the <a href="http://lat.ms/12N5h23">latest version</a> of his plan, Ryan acknowledges that capping the growth of the program could, in fact, make health insurance more expensive for some retirees. But that's part of the point of the change, which would concentrate Medicare spending on the poorest and sickest seniors.

  11. Unbalanced budgeting

    In case anyone has missed the dueling budget proposals out this week from Rep. Paul Ryan on the Republican side and Sen. Patty Murray for the Democrats, don't fret. You could easily have slept through the last four months and missed nothing. They are pretty much where the two sides have been for even longer than that.

  17. Ryan in fantasyland

    WASHINGTON -- If Rep. Paul Ryan wants people to take his budget manifestos seriously, he should be honest about his ambition: not so much to make the federal government fiscally sustainable as to make it smaller.

  19. Ryan Budget Makes for Great Unintentional Satire

    You know how these popular political shows like &ldquo;Scandal&rdquo; and &ldquo;House of Cards&rdquo; are always trying to keep the hokey out of their political characters? For instance, my roommate is obsessed with re-watching &ldquo;The West Wing&rdquo; on Netflix right now, and it got me thinking, if any of these shows introduced a character as flamboyantly cruel, simple-minded, and ideologically right wing as Paul Ryan, the producers would have to say, &ldquo;C&rsquo;mon, let&rsquo;s not be a bunch of Hollywood liberals making a cartoon character Republican who wants to steal from the poor to give to the rich.&rdquo;

  21. Obamacare's other benefit

    If it is done right, the Affordable Care Act (a.k.a. Obamacare) may well promise uninsured Americans a lot more than cheap, reliable medical care. It can also open the door to the democratic empowerment of millions of poor people, who are often alienated from much of the nation's civic life, by strengthening the organizations that give them a voice.
