South Carolina Bachmann townhall -- IPAB board

[ThePurpleSeahorse]

It's been proven that she was not present if this conversation ever took place. I can't believe she's still telling this story! Bachmann continuously lies, and yet goes on and on about her religious values. Perhaps one is allowed to be dishonest in order to "reclaim the mountain" of government.

Therefore I fear for my country

Libtards & sheeple listen ! Conservatives are not republicans. Bachman is a Conservative ,Carl Rove is a republican. The precepts that will save our country from certain demise are radical (albeit historic ) The basic tenants of freedom & free market economy are not held or understood by the average American. Thanks to 16 years of public education & revisionist dribble coming out of our high schools & universities. They are cranking out mind numb drones.

No Michele, you are the one who doesn't get it!!!!!!

It amazes me that Bachmann & Perry use sensationalism to spew their lies misguiding the public. I am so sick of hearing the Republicans claim that Obama has put us in this situation and can't get us out. It was the Republicans that put us in this situation, and they now have the solution to bring us out of the recession? Bullshit!

He said "Obama care?" Really? His plan was to increase taxes to pay for services... your plan was to privatize Medicare and cut major parts of it.

[edgwaterprog]

God...she is a nut-job. 

[justjulie37]

Ok Genius , what is your plan??? what are you going to do about the price of healthcare??? the pre-existing conditions clauses? She is so full of shit !! lying crazy bitch. We all know Obama care is not perfect, but it's a start to helping everyone get care and not have to wait 24 months for the pre-existing condition clause expires. GOP is good at pointing fingers, and yet they can't really tell us in detail what their plan is either? Privatizing healthcare is not going to solve anything

What a moron...

"The Independent Payment Advisory Board, or IPAB, is a United States Government agency created in 2010 by sections 3403 and 10320 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act which has the explicit task of reducing the rate of growth in Medicare without affecting coverage or quality."

[whoo689]

What is her source that Medicare will be "broke in 9 years"??? SS Trust Fund won't start running out until 2043, but Medicare goes broke by 2020?? Please...
