Romney: A Big Phat Liar: More False Promises, More False Claims

Romney: A Big Phat Liar Inbox

From brembelia

We all know that Republicans have two faces like Janus, and they talk
out of both sides of their faces. Last night was yet another example
of phat cats telling the public anything they want to hear to get into
power to screw the public over again and again.

Below is a memo from the Florida Alliance for Retired Americans
(FLARA)Pass it around and help get the truth out!

Thanks!

Romney to Florida Seniors:
More False Promises, More False Claims

The following statement was issued today by Edward F. Coyle, Executive
Director of the Alliance for Retired Americans.

"Last night at a Florida senior center, presidential candidate Mitt
Romney once again couldn't stop himself from telling an audience what
they wanted to hear - even if it wasn't true.

"Romney told retirees, 'we will never go after Medicare or Social
Security,' even though he supports the Ryan budget to give seniors
small vouchers to buy coverage from private insurance companies; wants
to raise the Social Security retirement age; and wants to let Wall
Street gamble away - and profit from - privatized Social Security
accounts. For a notoriously inconsistent politician, Mitt Romney has a
long, clear record of wanting to privatize Social Security and
Medicare.
"Two sentences later, Romney doubled-down with, 'there's only one
president in history that's cut Medicare $500 billion and that's
Barack Obama. And guess what he did it for? He did it to pay for
Obamacare.' Romney failed to mention that President Obama extended the
life of the Medicare Trust Fund by seven years by courageously
standing up to the big insurance companies who were being subsidized
by the taxpayers - at a cost of $1000 per year for each senior - to
provide the same services that Medicare could do for 14 percent less.
"To Mitt Romney, Social Security and Medicare are just two more ways
to pander to the crowd. But for millions of seniors, Social Security
and Medicare are the lifelines that allow them to pay their bills and
stay healthy. Seniors cannot let Mitt Romney hide from the truth on
these important issues."
