Pay particular attention to about 1 min 48 sec... And oh yeah, go ****
yourself...
So, you are lying. At least provided proof.
You think so?

Read the whole thing. That's the model.

Also, note the principle author - Robert Pearlman, MD - the poster boy
for "rationed" health care and cost effectiveness for those with
limited health spans, a sponsor of the Hemlock Society and a proponent
of euthenasia.

And if you don't think that the President is after seniors/elderly,
consider this - Social Security is not going to be giving out COLA
increases for the next two years - yet, Medicare payments are going up
by 3% the first year and 5% the following year - a net loss of 8% to
those who are dependant on SSI over two years.

Get yourself edumacated before you call people liars.
COLA is pegged to increases in the COL. Got it?
Like I said Bone Brain - get yourself edumacated.

COLA has been canceled for SSI/SSD for the next two years.

http://www.forbes.com/2009/08/24/soc...ton-index.html

Medicare is scheduled to go up 3% and 5% over the next two years.

That's a net loss of 8% anyway you slice it. Which means that SSI/SSD
reciepients will actually return to 2006 payment levels.

I know math is hard for you Liberals, but this is pretty easy to
understand - even for you.

It's easy... [Tools} [Rules] [Add] {type in "H the K") [enter]...
finished business...

There you go, Conservatives = intelligent
Liberals = stupid.

Nope, you are too defensive... Tom made the comment about Liberals. I
just noted a quick way to filter him out...

Bush, the conservative, turned a budget surplus into a budget deficit.
I'd say math wasn't one of his, or those who stood by and watched,
strong points.

Logic isn't a strong point of someone who would make a sweeping
statement as you did.

Yep, like Harry on the left, that's what ****es me off. Wide sweeping
generalizations just aren't good intelligent debate. Me for instance,
I've got more math under my belt that many, many people, and always done
well in it. As a matter of fact that's why I do what I do for a living.
And guess what? I'm pretty damned liberal!

I just went on SS this year, so I'm hoping the Reps will force the
Dems to fix this up. Maybe end up with a 15% or so increase in my SS
check. Preferably before the year is out. Best scenario would be for
a Rep to actually introduce a bill, instead of simply being forced to
vote for it. That would be sweet.
Pretty nice seeing the Reps jump on the entitlement wagon, what with
Bush's unfunded Plan B benefit for the elderly, and now their pushing
for higher SS payments. Shows they care for old folks, and are the
opposite of the death panel pushing Dems.
Remember the gas station price wars? Sort of a reverse version.

We can be sure the GOP, the same party that has tried repeatedly to kill
Medicare, has the interests of seniors at heart.

They do. Seniors are their base now. The Reps are vociferously
defending Medicare, by accusing the Dems of undermining it.
Like I said - SWEET!
Never a better time to be an old folk, even at 62.
Pretty confident now that SS and Medicare can only get better with the
Dems and Reps in a bidding war.
BTW, I just heard John McCain tell his town hall we have to ensure our
kids and grand kids have SS and Medicare too!
SWEET!!!

I got my first check April 1, this year, although being declared permanently
totally disabled April 1, 2004. It took them that long to get it straight.
Being awarded SS benefits is different than getting the check every month.

Gosh, I suppose that's enough reason for Obama to quadruple it. Just
blame it on Bush. Don't you think you could come up with something
other than the 'Bush Rationale' for the stupid **** Obama does?

Oh, whoops, that's a wide sweeping generalization which isn't good
intelligent debate.
