This Week's MOMochat: Election 2012 and The Ryan Budget

Campaign 2012 has officially begun - Are You In?

Donna Schwartz Mills, Cynematic and Jaelithe Judy talk about the official launch of the President's re-election campaign and the relative lack of enthusiasm from the liberal wing of the party...

...especially in light of the radical budget proposal revealed this week by GOP House Budget Committee Chair Paul Ryan, which would gut Medicare and Medicaid -- finally fulfilling a longtime goal of the John Birch Society and other extremists on the right. All we can say is that the Koch Brothers are getting their money's worth on their investment in the 2010 elections.

Fortunately, we've got Melissa Schober to help us make sense of it all. She'll be posting her analysis of the Ryan proposal here and is also making time to appear on MOMochat this week.

MOMocrat Melissa has worked in and around the Beltway for the past decade, beginning her career with NARAL, moving on to become a public health advocate. An apparent glutton for punishment, she lived through health care reform only to take a job working with a mid-Atlantic state's Medicaid program.

 A mom to an almost 3 year old, she is perpetually short on sleep.

Melissa contributes to the MOMocrats as an individual and the views she expresses here and on our show are her own.

Listen here Wednesday, April 6: 12:00 Noon Eastern/11:00 AM Central/9:00 AM Pacific.

Got something to say? We'll be talking live calls at  (347) 945-6465.
