http://PushBackNow.com Harry in his own words..
"You talk about the CBO saying there could be fifty-four (54) billion dollars saved each year if we put caps on medical malpractice...but remember we're talking about 2 trillion dollars (2,000,000,000,000.00)... you can do the math..." -Harry Reid

Nice piece of distortion. Harry Reid said:
"But remember, were talking about $2 trillion, $54 billion compared to $2 trillion. You can do the math. "
It seems clear Sen. Reid was talking about the annual cost of healthcare in the U.S. (which is actually more like $2.4 trillion). But this gets twisted into a statement about the cost of this legislation, even though Reid doesn't say anything like this. It's not true, but that won't keep it from being posted on a few thousand websites.

I think it was a slip of the tongue. There is no saving this guy, in our opinion.
