Paul Ryan & The Medicare Kiss of Death by Tom Love

Ah, the Kiss of Death, add the name of Rep. Paul Ryan to the List of the Greatest Betrayers of the Aged, Blind, Infirmed, and Disabled since Judas kissed Jesus. His bill would stab the back of Medicare Recipients for generations and make a mockery of the greatest gift of the New Deal, Social Security. Old Age, Survivors, and Disability Income, all earned since the Great Depression in 1935 gone in a flurry not seen since the High Sheriff of Nottingham rode through Sherwood Forest.

But enough of my purple prose, let us hear the words of Newt Gingrich before he too twisted the knife. I don’t think I’ve ever agreed with Newt Gingrich. But when he says that Paul Ryan’s budget plan is too “radical” and represents “right wing social engineering” it’s hard to deny the truth. So we should say, “Thank You.”

The real Ryan Plan gives tax breaks to billionaires, paid for by tearing Medicare to shreds and its the plan to dismantle Medicare and reward billionaires with more tax breaks and is a strong example of how extreme today's Republican party has become. If only other Republicans saw things the way you did, we'd be much better off. So send a thank you note:
