HUH? The Ryan plan was just something that Bob Kerrey and John Breaux proposed in 1999?

That's what Rep. Armstrong, a repuke from GA, just said on Tweety.

Did Bob Kerrey do anything of a sort? (I can understand Breaux)...

1. Does it matter?

[CTyankee]

5. Well, obviously it does to the republicans because they are using it in their

pushback. I'd be interested in hearing from Kerrey on this...

2. that was Jack Kingston

and Tweety just sat there and let that smug sonofabitch lie his ass off :grr:

3. The desperation is evident. They're trying to find a new way to spin their disaster.

Ryan started it this morning..."It's not a voucher, it's premium support, just like Bill Clinton wanted!" Bullshit. Bullshit. Bullshit.

4. In 1999 it may have seemed more feasible as we hadn't seen a lot of the explosion in costs yet.

In retrospect it won't work because it's the health care system that is broken.

[CTyankee]

6. Oh, I agree. There are better ways of doing this...the pubs don't care.

Their real goal is demolition of the welfare state...it's all ideology. They really don't care one bit about Medicare...
