16. Yup, act surprised, and interested at first ... act as if you are "unaware" ...
Then start a rentless search ... for details.

When did it happen, which bill ... where did you hear this?

After some stuttering ... "but isn't it the Republicans who call Medicare (and Social Security) a "give-a-way"??"

(definitely throw in Social Security they've been lied to about that too) ...

Ans then ... "my mom is on Medicare, she still gets it ... so do my wife's parents ... he just had a quadruple by-pass, fully covered". (true)

And didn't the Dems vote to give all seniors an extra $250 last year when those on Social security didn't have a cost of living increase? Obama and the Dems wanted to do it again this year, but the GOP blocked that bill. They said it was too expensive to give older Americans that $250 dollars, because it would cut into the tax breaks for the richest people on the planet.

And anyway, doesn't the new healthcare law CLOSE the donut whole for prescription drugs? That should save seniors lots of money.

And ... I remember seeing Dick Army, head of the Tea Party (don't leave that out), on Meet the Press a while back and HE was calling for an end to Medicare and Social Security ... wants to phase them out completely.

Least that's what I heard him say.

So anyway ... when again did you say Obama took your Medicare, which bill did that ... I'd need to look into that. Doesn't sound right.
