NYT editorial demolishes Romney/Ryan Medicare lies

[janedrake]

Found this to be a concise debunking of the lies about Medicare coming
out of the Romney/Ryan camp - includes bolded headings and all:

Truth and Lies About Medicare

WoW! Rarely do you see a 2 page editorial and one that is as hard hitting. It spells out the truth, which R&R have so distorted that it's goobly-gook.

I bookmarked the page and am going to use it to slam the repubs every time they try to lie.

Thanks!

Hello, Jaxx! You can almost see the gritted teeth of the editors as they wade through the Romney/Ryan lies one-by-one. Now if only the journalists who are actually traveling with the campaign could be as much up to the task of not letting R/R off the hook.

Shouldn't fact-checking like this be in the regular news section rather than in Opinion?

Exactly, Willinois.
