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. Special guest Melissa Schober will be on hand to say a lot more. MOMocrat Melissa has worked in and around the Beltway for the past decade beginning her career with NARAL. Melissa has worked as 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. She is appearing on MOMocrats as an individual and the views she will be expressing are her own. A mom to an almost 3 year old, she is perpetually short on sleep.

The week began withTax Day: Tea Party rallies were held by a loud minority who think the lowest tax rates in history are still too high... while there is evidence that a consensus is growing among the sane citizenry (you know, the ones who understand basic math) that the budget cannot be balanced without raising revenues back to Clinton-era tax structure. Our week ends with Earth Day. Forty-one years later, is our environment any safer? Donna Schwartz Mills and Cynematic host this week.
