Paul Ryan: the Dr. Kevorkian of Medicare (by Paul Begala, CNN -- Dem scare tactics)(Gag alert)
CNN ^ | April 6, 2011 | Paul Begala

Posted on 04/06/2011 2:28:51 PM PDT by UniqueViews

Republicans have always hated Medicare, but most Americans have always loved it. Now, led by Rep. Paul Ryan, the Republicans are trying to kill it once and for all.

Only among Beltway elites is it considered courageous to deny ill and infirm seniors the health care they deserve -- while giving oil companies billions in taxpayer subsidies. Most Americans have a different definition of courage. They think courage is taking on oil companies, corporate special interests and billionaire polluters. But that's not in the GOP playbook.

And so we know where Paul Ryan stands: He wants to abolish Medicare. And we know where Obama stands: He wants to save Medicare.

The Dems are the ones gutting medicare with Obamacare and they have the unmitigated gall to use this scaretactics against Republicans. But then, Democrats have no shame.

This is what people read if they only read or watch CNN -- all bias all the time.

Alas, most voters don't seem to see through this kind of BS. How can they even pretend to be reporters?

What would we do without megaminds like Paul Begala?

After all, he’s so very famous for....er.....uh.....um.....

Well, he did get a real college degree.

In something.

That obviously didn’t require very much study.

The DELUSIONAL opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Paul Begala.

I personally know both Paul Ryan and Paul Begala. Begala is a liar and a twit. Begala doesn't have the 'props' to shine Ryan's shoes. Begala should crawl back into his hole and let a real man do the job of saving this country (Ryan).

Who cares what that little Democratic hack says about anything. He’s always been a Democratic hack, he’ll always be a Democratic hack, and that’s all he’s ever wanted to be.

Begala thiks he’s hit on a clever little description. He’s a truly pathetic pig and in fact, he looks like one. SNORT.

Did you read #8? I used to drive that little twerp (Begala) to CCD. He was a neighbor of ours and went to school with my kids. He was a brat then, and he’s a brat now.

I would suggest to him that he should get himself to Confession and bare his soul. It’s almost Easter!

And yet the democrats won't even propose to cut the 40 billion being asked for by attacking those groups.

I don’t think we have any choice. It’s mandatory for everybody, and no ocmpany offers a replacement for it, so pretty much we are all stuck in it. And most people never really figure out how much they already PAID for it before they even get to start participating.

I figure that between me and my employer, we’ll have paid up front for a good 20-years of a high-quality private insurance program. And I’ll be stuck with medicare.
