The Mitt-Rayan ticket now realise that the Obama Team have defeated them in the game of articulating the true issues facing this election. So the Mitt Team says. “Let’s spread asome lie that Obama ‘stole’ 716$ from Medicare to fund his Obamacare” It cant wash. If anything Medicare and Obamacare are two sides of the same coin. No, this is not some third-world electioneering where people do not have access to information. Already the truth is out that the non-partisan CBO has confirmed what Obama said. Sorry Mitt and Co. You are losing!!

We have been paying for medicare and social security out of our paychecks for all of our working life. All that is needed is to remove the payroll ceiling on both and they both last forever. Under Obamas plan, the costs are controlled by getting the medicare advantage and facilitys and pharm costs down, whereas under romney/ryan the same amount of money is ‘saved’ by cuttin from the benefits and no cost control at all, which by the way will make medicare insolvent in about 8 years so obama, benefits same and ryan cut benefit

Suicide mission indeed. Republicans mistakenly count on people believing a lie if it is repeated enough. The echo chamber that is their base is being recognized as exactly that and the lies they echo resonate less and less until they fall flat causing the GOP to either find new lies or to repeat old ones.

This tactic isn’t going to win them elections and come November, voters will remember Romney’s unwillingness to comply with releasing his tax returns, his offshore accounts, the destruction of businesses by Bain Capital and Ryan’s Medicare-destroying budget.

Has anyone noticed that Romeny & Ryan are not discussing their plans for Medicare ie vouchers, $716 billion that they intend to remove from the plan to supposedely pay down the deficit? Instead they attack PO’s plan which actually benefits seniors by expanding services, lowering prescription costs etc. Boener told them to go on the offense on PO’s plan because they know if they discussed theirs, they would loose the election in November. Wish the Dems would highlight their own positive plan while outlining R & R’s destructive plan in more detail. PO is doing a good job in this video but more info needs to be broadcast across the country.
