In All Honesty GOP Will Abruptly Stop All The Checks To Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid

The GOP message on reform covers the fact that they would stop all the checks for Social Security and Medicare and end Medicaid immediately given the chance. And Obamacare would be history replaced by NOTHING. You have to look beyond their bullshit. They just and them yesterday. AND THESE BASTARDS WILL NOT STOP.

Yes theater. And we fall for it every time. We lose every time they have the football. The state legislature in most states are overwhelmingly republican and that is not because of gerrymandering.

'that part would never happen'.

How is this group that can't elect a fucking Speaker of the House going to do all these huge things you want to claim they are able to do?

My husband turned 65 a month ago so I've been attending these SS/Medicare seminars/workshops, in hopes to make sense of it all. There are a lot of them & they all say the same thing - they weren't doing this 5 years ago. The number of boomers who are depending on SS/Medicare being there for them is stunning.

The GOP will not survive if they do this.

Who do you think raided the social security fund? GWB said it when he said that social security was made up of those worthless pieces of paper, which were t-bills
