"Ryan could hurt Romney in Florida," the Miami Herald said. "Ryan's plans to retool Medicare pose challenges in Florida, as does his one-time opposition to the Cuban embargo, a stance anathema to many Cuban Americans."
In Tampa, where the Republican National Convention will convene later this month, the Tampa Bay Times earned the award for punniest Ryan headline: "Fiscal Attraction."
This will be spliced into an ad for sure. It is going to be devastating because, unlike the granny/clliff ad, it really happened and there is Ryan, the VP pick, making a sick joke about blood pressure. My, oh my.
That is what makes this so damaging to Ryan. Ryan's disrespect for the elderly comes out when he mocks this senior by making jokes about him.
I think Ryan will be appointing a "Death panel." Don't you?
Oh god no, Ryan will simply change the law to make it legal for anyone to shoot to kill anyone 55 years old, or higher, bypassing the need for any panel.
Let's talk about the "Medicare Solution" in Obamacare. Obamacare removes and cuts $700,000,000.00 from Medicare. Yeah, that saves and strengthens Medicare.
Do you understand that the cuts aren't to services or even to the existing budget, but it slows the growth of the costs of medicare over 10 years by cutting things like pork to insurance companies. I'm a conservative, and I'm floored that someone who calls themselves a conservative would complain about cutting FAT from a federal program.
The Ryan plan ELIMINATES medicare, and you think that's going to be a better option? The vouchers REALLY DO gut services, because people are going to have to purchase private insurance at a time when their health costs are the highest. It's going to mean sky high premiums that the voucher won't cover, or reduced services and much higher out of pocket expenses.
Paul Ryan’s town hall meeting where he was discussing cutting Senior’s Social Security, and Medicare as a means of debt reduction. As you might imagine, one senior was not pleased.
Obviously a ******* operative plant. And yes Social Security is an ENTITLEMENT. Look up the word sometime. Hopefully the geriatric ******* took his BP meds.
