Muscatine

You are the one that said it: "disagrees". So since you said they disagree with me and you can't prove it...I guess we know what that makes you again! I know it is too much to ask for proof, though, davie.

Wow...I see you two are posting within minutes of each other again. Impeccable timing!

You make an affirmative statement like "I can't check"? Thanks for confirming you were banned. LMAO!

Democrats are lying and misleading people about the medicare portion of Ryan's plan:

"Democrats Warn That Paul Ryan’s Medicare Plan Would Reduce Federal Health Care Spending"

Uh, yeh.....that's the point!  Reduce federal spending on health care!

"Under the current system, the federal government maintains what is effectively an unlimited commitment to health care spending for seniors. But given the current projected growth in health spending over the next several decades, that commitment simply isn’t sustainable. Even President Obama recognizes that the health entitlements are at the heart of our long-term fiscal problems: "Medicare and Medicaid are the single biggest drivers of the federal deficit and the federal debt by a huge margin," he said in 2009. 

That means that the federal government’s commitment to health care spending must be limited somehow. That’s the basic problem that Ryan is trying to address, and voucherizing the program is the way he's chosen to do that. Which means that Democrats are complaining, essentially, that Ryan is solving the problem that needs to be solved.

Mr. Ryan's proposal would apply to those currently under the age of 55, and for those Americans would convert Medicare into a "premium support" system. Participants from that group would choose from an array of private insurance plans when they reach 65 and become eligible, and the government would pay about the first $15,000 in premiums. Those who are poorer or less healthy would receive bigger payments than others.

The plan would essentially end Medicare, which now pays most of the health-care bills for 48 million elderly and disabled Americans, as a program that directly pays those bills. Mr. Ryan and other conservatives say this is necessary because of the program's soaring costs. Medicare cost $396.5 billion in 2010 and is projected to rise to $502.8 billion in 2016. At that pace, spending on the program would have doubled between 2002 and 2016."

The Democrats only lie and criticize.  They offer no serious plan or even an intention.

I remember back when I said something like, the Rasmussen poll could be a little skewed since it consistently gave conservatives a little edge compared to other polls.   The response was a fire storm of indignation.  The poll was vehemently defended as accurate.   Now, apparently, polls mean nothing.   At least those which point to Tea Party hypocrisy.
