Peter Orszag Don't Play

I have to admit that when I first saw OMB director Peter Orszag I thought he looked to young to be up to the task much like Tim Geitner. But after hearing the guy speak a few times I am convinced that not only is he up to the task but he doesn't suffer fools much at all. He did something today on "Face The Nation" that I have been waiting for someone to do for the last two weeks. He called the Republicans out on their "alternate plan" and called on them to put forth the details of their plan for all the world to see and criticize just like President Obama's team did. You see Republican Congresspersons on Tee Vee day after day contending that they have a better plan and yet they are never asked to explain it nor defend it and all the while they do nothing but criticize and lie about the President's budget. Hell even uber "centrist" David Brooks described the GOP's call for a spending freeze as quote "insane". It will be interesting to see if the mainstream media starts calling on the GOP to start explaining their supposedly better plan in detail or if they stick to CW that the Republicans are just doing what they feel is right.
