who is as conservative as you can get, says the Medicare Insurance rates paid by seniors are going up. Here is his post: "The per person Medicare Insurance Premium will increase from the present
Monthly Fee of $96.40, rising to:

$104.20 in 2012

$120.20 in 2013

And

$247.00 in 2014."

These are Provisions incorporated in the Obamacare Legislation,purposely
delayed so as not to confuse the 2012 Re-Election Campaigns. Send this to
all Seniors that you know, so they will know who's throwing them under the
bus

7. Ask your friend we he needs to lie to sell his candidate

If his position was strong, he wouldn't need top lie. This is an outright lie, long debunked by Snopes:

Why is your friend a liar? Why don't you ask your friend why he needs to lie?

8. Some of the posters here have talked about using the word "lie" around this POS...

Very Important to use that word.

These are not mistakes... these are not misinterpretations.

They are lies.

Somebody made this shit up to support their views.

I never let up on these people until they admit it's a lie.

They know that they can not show anything good on the other side (Reps side) so they use the problems of their own plan and say it is the Dem's.
