Didn't think today's web ad by OFA was enough? Well, that was just the warm-up because Obama just brought the hammer down on the Romney/Ryan Medicare Plan with his own words.
POTUS: Here's what you need to know. I have strengthened Medicare. I have made reforms that have saved Millions of Seniors, Hundreds of Dollars on their Prescription Drugs. (Crowd Roars with Applause) I proposed reforms that will Save Medicare Money by getting rid of wasteful spending in the Medicare system. Reforms that will not touch your benefits, not by a dime.
Mr. Romney and his running mate have a very different plan. They want to turn Medicare into a voucher program. (Crowd Boos) That means that seniors would no longer have the guarantee of Medicare, they'd have a voucher to buy private insurance. And because the voucher wouldn't keep up with costs the plan authored by Mr. Romney's running mate, Congressman Ryan, would force seniors to pay another $6,400 per year that I assume they don't have.
My plan has already extended the life of Medicare by nearly a decade. My plan has brought down the cost of Medicare by cracking down on Fraud and Waste and Subsidies to Insurance Companies, their plan makes Seniors pay more so they can give another tax cut to Millionaires and Billionaires. That's the difference between our plans on Medicare, that's the choice in this election and that's why I'm running for a second term as President of the United States of America.
BOOM! Down goes Romney/Ryan2012!
My quick thoughts.
I think they've been so bold and brazen in their lies because they didn't think Obama had this in him. They didn't think He Had the Juevos Rancheros!
I think they thought that President Obama wouldn't dare to run on his Health Care Plan. They seem to think that all the B.S. the Tea Party has been spewing for two years was actually true. That Obama was nothing more than an angry spitful Affirmative Action Charity-Case Black Dude trying to get back at Whitey by taking way their health care, then using the money to give it away to all his buddy-buddy Welfare Pimps & Queens.
I think they really believe at least some of the bullshit they've been talking all this time. That he's overrated, unqualified, out of his depth. He's not Up to the Job. Oh, not all of it - but they have to swallow at least some of it or else human nature would cause their heads to balloon outward from trying to contain all the hypocrisy and ridiculousness without having it dribble out of their ears and onto their shoes.
They didn't really believe, that he Is who he Says He IS - the Mutha Fracking Leader of the Mutha Fracking FREE WORLD! You don't tug on Superman's Cape, you don't spit in the wind, and you don't double dog dare Barack Obama to Smack You Down when you deserve it.
Or they're just a pack of power hungry ass-nozzles who just don't give a Frack about Facts, Reality or how so much of their B.S. is severely damaging America.
We're on the verge of destroying the U.S. Credit Rating? Who needs to up the Debt Ceiling.
We have 8% unemployment? Who needs a Jobs Bill.
We have a massive devastating Drought? Who needs a Farm Bill.
Or like most criminals, they never considered they might get caught.
And now he's CALLED THEM ON IT. They are Caught.
And he's going to keep calling them on it. And they're going to have to go on the teevee, with Soledad O'Brien, maybe Chuck Todd, maybe even Wolf Blitzer will finally waken from his two decade long stupor and ask...
"Is what the President is saying about Medicare correct?"
Ya Damn Skippy It IS - And Everyone in the GOP has been lying to your FACE about it. They've Lied on Meet the Press, they've Lied on CNN, they've Lied in the Ads.
If Obama keeps this section, just this section, in his stump speech until November - THEY ARE TOASTED AND ROASTED.
