Re: 2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)
Quote:
Cutter: Obama's plan doesn't cut benefits. Lie. Truth: Even factcheck agrees Obama's plan will reduce benefits for those on Medicare Advantage plans. Cutter claims Romney's plan "takes away guaranteed benefits for seniors". Flat out lie. Truth: Romney and Ryan have said several times, their plan doesn't affect anyone under 55. Cutter: Obama's plan extends Medicare by 8 years.....straight BS. This is likely a wild distortion from the absurd claim that under Romney/Ryan Medicare is bankrupt by 2016 and under Obama's plan it doesn't bankrupt until 2024. Truth: CBO and many others have stated the Medicare Trust Fund will be bankrupt under Obama's plan, best case by 2024, worst case by 2020. I don't know where the hell Cutter's claim of Medicare being bankrupt by 2016 comes from. That's a start. While I'm answering stuff....whatever happened to the Obama junk-bond loans to bankrupt green energy companies response? Don't kill yourself on it, there is no response other than "galactically corrupt".
