Rachel Maddow: Republicans Now Pretending to be the Champions of Medicare.



One of the hardest things to take seriously during the current healthcare debate in the US, is the Republicans attempting to portray themselves as the defenders of Medicare.

This simply ludicrous. The Republicans have spent the last fifty years decrying Medicare and now, with a cynicism which appears extreme even for them, they are attempting to portray themselves as some kind of Medicare champion. Only the most woefully misinformed Americans could listen to this bunkum without feeling the need to openly laugh in their faces.

Hat tip to Crooks and Liars.
