Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) ripped the eternal politician Barack Obama today on FOX News Sunday,
“We don’t need a good politician, we need a strong leader.”
Paul Ryan was discussing the Republican budget proposals that will be announced this week:

We’ve passed two… I find it kind of ironic that the week we are trying to engage the president, the democrats and the country with an honest debate about our budget with real solutions to fix this country’s problems and prevent a debt crisis, the president’s launching his reelection campaign.

We need to engage this country on the issues that are necessary to secure our prosperity, to get this debt paid off. To get our economy growing right now. We know for a fact that we are giving our children and grandchildren a lower standing of living. And, we don’t need good politics. We don’t need to keep making empty promises to people. We need to engage and fix these problems while they are still under our control.”
