So that's it? "No cuts." & "Solvent." & "I paid 13% in taxes."
Did msnbc let that liar off the hook? No rebutal? No demand for any proof?

I hope his next presentation involves some posterboard, a petri dish and an honorable mention ribbon, because this science fair display of nothingness proves he has ZILCH to show in the way of facts.
This is another form of his Etch-a-Sketch board that easily wipes away without even having to shake it. Watch out... he'll be selling you a time-share in a few days as well.
He's got that blood in his veins.

FEAR the debt, notice how he puts in there that the medicare trustees warned the PResident that under current plans Medicare is bankrupt in 12 years???

(725 posts)7. Correct me if I'm wrong, but nobody lost coverage because of changes to Medicare Advantage.
They simply moved into regular Medicare coverage. The Advantage Plans ran about 20% more than regular, with little discernible value to match.
Is this supposed to be the $4 million Romney claims lost coverage by virtue of the change?
And I believe the closing of the donut hole is also from the changes.
I usually try to research before I post, but as often as not, by the time I get it together it's old news.
I know we've got some DUers who can straighten me out - right off the top of their bright heads. I know Romney's full of s**t, but can someone help me with the facts?

People will believe it...that is why we need journalist to fact check things and report on them.
