In this interview, Cain says he supports Rep. Paul Ryan’s plan to save Medicare “one hundred percent.� And, when the interviewer asked him why other GOP candidates (like Romney) are shrinking from the Ryan plan, he tells the obvious truth:
The people who are backing away from Ryan’s plan, they simply lack courage … I don’t know any […]

VIDEO: LEFTY PUNDIT STORMS OFF STAGE DURING MEDICARE REFORM DEBATE
Simon Rosenberg, President of liberal think-tank NDN, gets his ass kicked so badly in this segment that he tears his mike off and leaves the stage. Ironically, the moderator had actually interrupted THE CONSERVATIVE so that Rosenberg could finish reciting his talking points, but the schmuck was so uncomfortable outside the progressive cocoon that he just […]
VIDEO: CLINTON WARNS RYAN THAT NY-26 WILL ENCOURAGE DEMS TO RUN ON “MEDISCARE”
The tragedy of the NY-26 election results is not that a Dem won, but that she won using the old “Mediscare” tactic. Even Bill Clinton understands that the current Medicare funding model is simply unsustainable. In this clip, he worries aloud that the NY victory will encourage the Dems to continue their irresponsible failure to face that fact:
I’m glad […]
DEMS LYIN’ ABOUT RYAN’S MEDICARE PLAN
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) has put forward the only sane proposition for saving Medicare that we have seen in years, and this has predictably made him the target of hysterical and dishonest attacks from the Democrats. They have accused Ryan of a variety of dark plots including the following:
This Republican path to poverty passes like a tornado […]
IPAB: MAY I DEBUNK A TALKING POINT?
Since the President was was kind enough to remind everyone about ObamaCare’s death panel, the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB), the main lefty talking point is the following (which I saw repeated almost verbatim at a dozen progressive blogs and “news” sites before I got bored):
The ACA severely limits the scope of IPAB recommendations, specifically excluding […]
VIDEO: AARP HEARING OPENED BY REP. CHARLES BOUSTANY, MD
Dr. Boustany is the new Chairman of the Ways & Means Oversight Subcommittee and he opened today’s hearing with a useful summary of why Americans, particularly seniors, should be concerned about the activities and motives of AARP: Â
AARP has morphed into an insurance and advertising powerhouse. According to the most recent data we have, AARP, Inc. and its for-profit organizations […]
AARP WILL RAKE IN $1 BILLION FOR PIMPING OBAMACARE
As I wrote in today’s column for the American Spectator, AARP’s endorsement of ObamaCare was all about the Benjamins. But unlike Judas, whose perfidy came at the cut rate price of 30 pieces of silver, AARP will scoop up a cool billion dollars for betraying its members:
Based on … estimates of declines in Medicare Advantage enrollment […]
VIDEO: OBAMA’S HEALTH CARE CZAR RAKED OVER THE COALS BY REP. TOM PRICE, M.D.
Yesterday, Tom Price, M.D. (R-GA) questioned Donald Berwick, recess-appointed administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid, at a hearing in the House Committee on Ways & Means. And Dr. Price was none too gentle about it. He pressed him especially hard on the promise that Americans could keep coverage that they like under ObamaCare. Berwick’s […]
REAGAN ON GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE
Since yesterday was Ronald Reagan’s 100th birthday, it seemed appropriate to re-post this 1960s audio of the Gipper warning against Medicare mission creep. Here’s the money quote:
One of the traditional methods of imposing statism, or socialism, on a people has been by way of medicine. It’s very easy to disguise a medical program as a […]
VIDEO: MEDICARE’S CHIEF ACTUARY OUTS OBAMA ON HEALTH REFORM WHOPPERS
The President has repeatedly told us that ObamaCare would control costs and that we can keep our insurance plans if we like them. Well, Medicare’s Chief Actuary begs to differ.
Richard Foster appeared at a House Budget Committee hearing earlier today and here are his answers to a couple of questions from California congressman Tom McClintock:
McCLINTOCK: True or false: The […]
