"A wise and frugal government which shall restrain men
from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government."

The Truth About President Obama's Medicare Claim During Health Care Bill Signing (He Lied)

The Truth About President Obama's Medicare Claim During Health Care Bill SigningMarch 23, 2010

The health care bill has caused a lot of confusion. We wanted to clear up a bit of that, courtsey of Whip Eric Cantor's office. See below:

President Obama: “I want seniors to know, despite what some have said, these reforms will not cut your guaranteed benefits.” (Remarks Made At Signing Ceremony, 3/23/10)

Fact Check: The Senate Bill + Reconciliation Bill + Rules Manager’s Amendment = $528.5 Billion in cuts to Medicare (CBO Letter To Speaker Pelosi, 3/20/10)
