It is truly amazing to hear President Obama’s henchman go out in front of the media and proclaim that Mitt Romney lied during the debates. Mitt Romney is better man than I because I would look the President in the eye and say, Mr. President you’re the liar!

When Obama Care is fully enacted in 2014, 716 billion dollars will be cut from the Medicare program and here is the impact. Senior citizens are going to be stuck with an insurance plan that will not be accepted by doctors and hospitals!

What Obama Care is going to do two things in regards to Medicare benefits. First off they are going to drastically cut what they will pay doctors for their visits and further reduce to hospitals the payments for services used. When a hospital and doctor agree to accept Medicare insurance, they agree to a fee schedule for every aspect of services provided. For example assume the cost of a doctor’s visit is $200.00.  Medicare could reduce the reimbursement to $60.00 and the doctor would have to accept it.

Medical practices today are limiting the number of Medicare patients they will accept and in the future there is a very strong possibility they will not accept it.

This could be the reality for the people who have Medicare in the future. Assume you have worked your entire life and built up a nest egg for retirement and you own your own home. It is discovered during your annual physical that there is a possibility that you have prostate cancer. So you go to a Gastroenterology group and they tell you, we don’t accept Medicare, your will be responsible for the entire bill. After the test are done, it is confirmed you have cancer but there is one little problem. The doctors who specialize in this type of medicine don’t accept Medicare. Maybe you live in community where there is not one doctor who accepts these patients? What are you going to do? Obviously you’re going to liquidate your savings, mortgage or sell your home, and liquidate all of your personal assets to pay for your treatments.

Assume you are truly blessed and you become cancer free. Guess what, the only income you have is social security and maybe a retirement check from your employer. That is all you have. No savings. No family home. Imagine if you owe more than you have? You’re looking at bankruptcy!

Does medical insurance need to be reformed? Yes. Obama Care is not the solution. President Obama has proclaimed that is has given tax breaks to the middle class and not raised taxes. Guess what, he lied. Obama Care will have the highest increase in taxes to the middle class than any program created by government.

I am not proud to call the President of the United States a liar. Obama knows that he can’t win any debates based on the truth. The only thing he can do is make up lies and hope that they will stick.

My wonderful liberal friends, if you love your country and you want to protect the seniors in our community, do not support Barack Obama.  In times of national crisis, Obama travels to Vegas to give another fundraising speech as opposed to being the President of the United States.  Your children deserve a leader, not someone who has put 6 trillion dollars on the countries credit card. Obama cries for us to be patriotic and make sacrifices. Why should I make sacrifices for a President who driving granny down a dark road to meet the end of a cliff? I should sacrifice while he gives 540 million dollars to Solyndra (who just happen to contribute to his campaign)?

America deserves a real leader and I know it is not the empty chair sitting in the White House today!
