Biden in Florida: Republicans will end Medicare
"Make no mistake: If Republicans in Congress and their amen corner of Romney, Santorum, and Gingrich get their hands on the White House, they will end Medicare as we know it," Biden will say, in prepared remarks released by the campaign. /snip
Mitt Romney also supports something the Republican leaders in Congress call cut, cap, and balance.
Of course, nobody knows what it means
and thats exactly what they intend. Because like so many of the most damaging things, it looks and sounds innocuous.
So, lets cut through it and say it in plain English.
The cut is cutting Social Security.
The cap is putting a cap on what we ask the wealthiest Americans to pay in taxes.
And the balance is balancing the budget on the backs of seniors and middle class Americans.
