Whose plan for reducing the national debt do you agree with more, that of Pres. Obama or the Republicans?

To help you think about this issue, I strongly recommend
the opinion piece by David Brooks (of the New York Times) that I have linked to below.

I
would argue that the Paul Ryan/Republican plan is more honest because it really clearly
spells out what it is that they want to cut.  Obama's plan sounds good, but does not say
what exactly would be cut.  I do not like that in Obama's
plan.

However, I do not think that the Republicans are
right to completely discount the idea of raising some taxes and using government
spending to get the economy going again.  I like that in Obama's
plan.

Overall, I wish that Obama would put more specifics
into his plan so that we could more accurately judge whether his cuts would be
sufficient and so we could compare his cuts (and taxes) to the Republicans' cuts in
terms of the impact that they would have on people's lives.
