Exactly what is taking place. We sit back with resistence and take it, while Obama's ignorant naïve lame supporters, support the lies. Which is worse, the lie, or those who make excuses for his lies.

If he cares at all about this country, he'll resign now and let Joe Biden pardon him and all of his criminal co-conspirators. Be as honorable as Nixon anyway.

Being an able-bodied, young leech complaining about old people must be a really pathetic existence.

You are beyond ridiculous. Everyone screams about cuts in their programs. Remember the democrats whining when the GOP proposed a 4% cut in welfare, OVER 10 YEARS? Even as the economy improved, and there would be less demand for welfare?

I gotta love someone who is a non stop broken record on every one of their postings with the same thing over, and over, and over.. Is this all you have to say in life? I feel sorry for you.

That's unfortunate. The NAACP and LULAC (League of United Latin American Citizens) strongly opposed cuts to Medicare Advantage, but of course Obama and the Dems didn't care about that.

NAACP: "MA [Medicare Advantage] plans — private health plan options that provide coverage to 8.3 million Medicare beneficiaries — disproportionately provide coverage to low-income and racial and ethnic minority beneficiaries. Specifically, 40 percent of African Americans without Medicaid or employer coverage rely on comprehensive health insurance coverage provided by MA plans. By providing more comprehensive benefits and lower cost-sharing than traditional Medicare, MA plans help racial and ethnic minority populations gain access to health care services that are critical to their long-term health and well-being."

LULAC: "Medicare Advantage is vital to the well-being of Hispanic Medicare beneficiaries. According to a 2005 study by Ken Thorpe, Ph.D., of Emory University, Hispanics rely disproportionately on the Medicare Advantage program....We are concerned that additional cuts in funding for Medicare Advantage will threaten access to comprehensive benefits, result in higher out-of-pocket health care costs, and create financial barriers to care that will be particularly harmful for Hispanic seniors."

Record of NAACP and LULAC signed letters submitted to the US Senate:
