John Boehner calls for cuts to Social Security, Medicare
Wednesday, July 14th, 2010John Boehner, Wednesday evening on Greta van Susteren’s show:
We really have to focus in on that two-thirds of the budget that’s really driving the deficit and the debt to the levels that we see. I’ve said for months that it’s time to have an adult conversation with the American people about the big challenges that face us. When you look at Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, these are important programs for tens of millions of Americans. But they’re not sustainable at current levels. They’re not affordable for our kids and grandkids. We’re going to have to make some changes. But I think the first step is laying out the size of the problem, and here in the coming weeks, I expect you’ll see more and more from our team laying out just how big this problem is.
If Boehner really wanted to have an adult conversation, he’d acknowledge that Social Security is in solid shape, and that simply raising the payroll tax cap would secure it’s solvency for the forseeable future. And Boehner would also admit that it was President Obama and the Democrats who took the first step towards reducing Medicare costs through the passage of health care reform. Yet instead of working with Democrats, Boehner and his gang attacked them for reducing the cost of Medicare. Even though those cost reductions will not reduce the quality of care, Boehner and the GOP claimed they had reduce benefits.
But now here he is, barely three months after the election, telling the public that the Republican Party thinks now is the time to cut not just Medicare, but also Medicaid and Social Security. Who knows, maybe he wants to return to being minority leader, because falsely claiming that we need to cut Social Security to balance the budget is exactly the kind of thing that should cost him the Speakership and Republicans the majority.

Mid-century modern design
Saturday, July 3rd, 2010Say hello to Frank Lloyd Wright! Or at least be reminded…
Currently on the market is a one-of-a-kind home located at 4398 Dublin Rd. in Columbus.
The residence is being sold by only the second owners who are relocating to New York. They think of this as their “dream home”, are sad to leave, but life has a way of shifting the future so we must shift too right? I think this home was built from a dream and will find it next caretaker who feels the same.
In 1985 Gary Rausch, an architect and VP of Lupton Rausch Architecture and Interior Design, built a house for his family. I can only guess, however, how long the design process was. What is clear is that he built what he wanted to live in. A home of quality and custom details (the dental molding he made himself) and convenient built-ins-staying true to the character of the architecture style.
Rausch designed and had constructed a 2,276 sq. ft mid-century modern stone and stucco ranch that rests on a serene acre plus on a private lane leading to the Scioto River. The location is perfect really. Close to 270, Riverside Dr, shopping in the Mill Run area, minutes to Tuttle Mall. The perfection lies too in the “take a breath” quality of pulling into the crushed stone drive and seeing some open space, possibly some curious deer, and even occasionally some wild turkeys! Unbelievable–right off of Dublin Rd. just north of Cemetery and south of Davidson–the possibiltiy of owning a 365 day vacation home close everything needed for daily convenience. Cool.
