Ryan criticizes 'endless borrowing;' Bachmann says her speech wasn't competing with his
WASHINGTON — Barack Obama was blamed for plunging the country into deeper debt in the GOP response to his State of the Union address, but a separate Tea Party message given by Michele Bachmann hinted at the party's divisions.
While Bachmann's comments were similar to those made by House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis., some Republican officials privately expressed anger at the unusual move.
Bachmann said her address wasn't intended to compete with Ryan's.
Ryan urged Obama to give up on new spending programs and "endless borrowing" by joining the GOP in a drive to wrestle the federal budget deficit under control.
"There is no doubt the president came into office facing a severe fiscal and economic situation," he said.
"Unfortunately, instead of restoring the fundamentals of economic growth, he engaged in a stimulus spending spree that not only failed to deliver on its promise to create jobs, but also plunged us even deeper into debt."

I think Michell gets it, and knows $h!t from Shinola better than most!
Glad to hear from her on this.
Obama's speech...If you go back and read it... it's ridiculous and empty and said nothing about the State of the Union.
