Saw the video on the news, Ryan stood next to his mom, and outright lied and said he was going to "preserve Medicare for future generations".
Here's the sad thing: news then interviewed an elderly couple, asked them if they liked Ryan's plan. They said, "yes, at least he has a plan, Obama doesn't".
Apparently these ignorant people are completely unawares that Obama's plan for Medicare was put into the ACA voted into law 2 years ago, and Obama's Medicare Plan is why this year
they have free preventive medicine visits, and
$600 less drug bills.
Same thing with my senior parents - they hate Obama, yet are happy they are paying less money through their Medicare this year - they certainly noticed - but they refuse to give Obama any credit for it.
I guess that change happened in a vacuum?
Complete ignorance in the American voter - very, very sad.
But I did like the MoveOn.org airplane circling overhead, with "Paul Ryan - keep your hands off our Medicare" banner playing out behind. That was fun.
