"Lost in the back and forth between the Obama and Romney campaigns over who's the real Medicare cutter is a critical difference between visions: President Obama's plan is to make the program solvent by reducing payments to health care providers, while Rep. Paul Ryan achieves his savings by transforming Medicare into a voucher-like system…".* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

Did Obama Cut Medicare?
OBAMA > teabaggers.
12/21/2012 The Death of Obama,
I love how, in this country, we actually have a president who gives a damn about the average person enough to address them directly on a near weekly schedule and to try and help the average person in a time of need, and the conservatives are screaming murder. The repubs don’t even care about being discreet, they will come flat out and tell you how lazy you are and that you don’t deserve to be helped in a time of need. It’s absolutely amazing people can support that kind of a stance.
obvious troll is obvious CertifiedGooner729
Screw the left and right. It’s dividing this nation.
Why journalists do not say : you are lying here so i have to correct this lie
Did you you actually watch the videos? They are both relating to different issues. You need to realize that just because medicare was mentioned twice, it doesn’t automatically mean they were talking about the same thing as in the last video.
Let’s all hang up an anti-Romney poster and spread the word within our own individual communities.
Why is it not against the law for these politicians to blatantly lie to the American people?
Freedom of speech has limits though. You can’t “scream fire in a crowded theater”, you can’t slander or libel. You can’t lie in order to force acceptance of terms. Freedom of speech doesn’t mean you can say what you want with no consequence.
GOP = Fascist, Racist, Evil Lying Scum!!! and that is a fact.
Where is the outrage the media should be outraged by this guy. Romney is a liar through and through… I wouldn’t trust him to tell me it’s raining outside i’d have to look for myself…The said part is that these ‘Obama wants to cut Medicare adds’ just might work on seniors.
No it really wouldn’t. Why shouldn’t we rely on facts to elect who runs our country? There would be no effects on free speech. Politicians can say whatever they want. I want them to base it on facts and not pander to the ignorance of Americans.
I am just the opposite economically moderate leaning left and hate the corporatist Democrats.
I just had a flashback to The Princess Bride. TYT should add that “INCONCEIVABLE” line to their list of sounds. It should be right up there with “I’m hurt dawg!”
Yes, that’s why they are full of it.
Someone muzzle Joe Walsh. PLEASE!!!!
I have never IN MY LIFE heard repubs refer as a cut to services as “theft”
They live themselves because about 1/3 of our … ahem … highly educated populace believe what these people say simply because they say it.
did you even WATCH the video? he just debunked all the chit you just spewed so i suggest actually LISTENING to what he said!
