Everyone with half a brain knew the $500B in savings was never going to happen and Obama was lying. But think about where we are in this upside down world. We have the Dems lying about cuts to Medicare and the GOP taking them to task for it to score political points. There was never going to be those savings because the sad reality is that doctors will in fact stop seeing Medicare patients when the reimbursements get so low it no longer makes financial sense so no politician of either party has the guts to make it happen. This is the self imposed rationing that was predicted if the cuts would actually happen, and they never do. What a farce and just one more reason why government should be limited.

So what is worse, Obama/Reid/Pelosi spending us into oblivion with their lies about cuts to Medicare or the GOP making a stink about cuts to Medicare that they know would never happen anyway? Both disgust me but one will actually destroy our country.

I suggest you look at what Paul Ryan has suggested in his recovery plan to address all these out of control entitlement programs. To me it is both workable and makes sense which is probably why it will be demagogued to death by the Dems and ignored by the RINOs.
