Ryan gets caught in a lie about requesting Stimulus money...

Hey, that's great news. I hadn't seen that.

However ... thank you for making my point that Medicare Part D will cost us hundreds of billions of dollars by 2018! It will ONLY cost taxpayers $373 BILLION! :applaud

That's got to bring tears of joy to a big government, big spending liberal like you!

Which is a reduction over not only the projection but what the program would have cost without it as well as a reduction over the Democrat Proposal. Just another topic you know little about

Wow, so the $373 billion that the program will cost is a reduction over what the program would have cost without ... "it"? WTF does that even mean?

Please provide us a link to this supposed Democratic proposal you are talking about, and the data indicating that that nonexistent proposal would have cost more.

I doubt you will ever get tired of being made a fool of, this is getting embarrassing for you

PolitiFact Virginia | Bobby Scott says Republicans created $1 trillion prescription drug plan

But here’s the other thing Scott leaves out -- Democrats, led by Ted Kennedy, had pitched an even more expensive Medicare Part D plan scored by the CBO to cost $800 billion in its first 10 years, double the cost of the Republican plan.
 
You really are a piece of work looking for anything you think is a gotcha moment but what you don't realize is everything you post makes you look like a partisan hack. You totally ignore anything that refutes your beliefs as well as ignore the situaion at the time and the counter proposal from Democrats. Was that proposal higher or lower than what was passed?

Medicare Part D costs come in 43% lower than forecast | Insurance & Financial Advisor I IFAwebnews.com

It's funny watching you call someone a hack when you are one your self.

You are praising an overly expensive program for being slightly less overly expensive.

Medicare D costs more then regular medicare for no real benefits. Apparently costing less than expected, but still more than the regular is something good to you.

Hack.
 
Your opinion noted, but the facts remain the Obama results fly in the face of the Obama rhetoric thus makes Obama a liar by liberal standards. He says one thing and does the other but you want to focus on perceived Ryan lies while ignoring the Obama record which is a total opposite of what Obama promised.

I want to focus on the topic of this thread which is about Ryan making a false statement and being a hypocrite. As I told you many times, if you want to talk about Obama, go to a Obama thread or start one yourself. And it's not my opinion that you hold a double standard, I provided the posts that showed your double standard and hypocrisy with regards to you calling the other side liars without evidence and calling Buffet a hypocrite when he acted exactly how Ryan acted.
 
Ah, you're referring to the Graham-Miller bill ... that would have expired in 2010? :lol:

Got caught again giving misinformation? No, I was referring to the Democrat Medicare Part D proposal for 800 billion dollars over 10 years supported by Ted Kennedy. Last time I checked 800 billion was more than double the cost of the Republican Plan yet you want to focus on the Republican plan. that is typical liberalism of distortion and diversion or in this case outright omission. Your arguments are out of desparation and the question is why? What is it about liberalism that creates this kind of loyalty?
