SILVER SPRING, Md. -- Vice President Joe Biden sought to reassure nervous seniors Wednesday that they won't see cuts in their Medicare benefits if the nation's health care system is revamped.
"Nobody is going to mess with your benefits. All we do is make it better for people on Medicare," Biden told about 150 people at Leisure World in suburban Maryland.
President Barack Obama and the White House contend that Medicare benefits won't be affected even though legislation in Congress would cut payments to Medicare Advantage plans by more than $100 billion over 10 years.

Would you buy a used car from this man, much less believe anything he had to say about health care?

Okay - just watching the Dems all these years and I have to ask. If they lie often enough and big enough is it that it gets easy to do, or do they feel entitled to go on lying, or do they no longer even know what telling the truth is? All the above? These guys don’t have an honest bone in their bodies.

Biden IS good entertainment.
