Ted Deutsch is a funny guy. The political Medicare Trustees say that, even with PlaceboCare, the Hospital Insurance portion of Medicare (the part that doesn’t have first claim on federal revenues or auto-increasing premiums) will go bankrupt in 2024, while the career actuaries say that will happen far sooner (I want to say 2019). I don’t see anything from Obama or the ‘Rats to deal with that.
On the Social Security side, depending on whether Congress decides to subsidize the disabled (both actual and faux) on the backs of the seniors, the combined “trust funds” go bust in 2036 or the separate Old-Age and Survivors Insurance “trust fund” goes bust in 2039 (both actually wildly optimistic, my estimate is 2028-2031 depending on the economic situation). Of course, that is dependent on finding anywhere between $4.3 trillion and $7 trillion that doesn’t exist to monetize that “trust fund”. Again, there’s no ‘Rat plan, and even the Ryan plan got deep-sixed due to no support.
There’s going to be a lot of people already getting Medicare, and some getting Social Security, who will be very adversely affected once those “trust funds” go belly-up.
The Republicans are the ones that created the robots that steal old people’s medicine!

Congressman Deutsch is a scare monger and a liar. His self serving political prostitution is obvious and it’s sad that a servent of the people only lives to serve himself and his masters.
And, sir, what masters do the republicans serve?
Big business and the wealthiest Americans, I think. What do you think?
I think you are a moron. A talking-points repeating, unthinking moron.
I will now summarize the daily claims of liberals in the United States:
Day X: Republicans voters are all toothless, uneducated bigots who take more in welfare than they pay in taxes.
Day Y: Republican voters are ultra-rich businessmen who hate poor people and want granny, and everyone else who isn’t rich, to starve in the streets.
I would strongly suggest you investigate the facts before you make talking point statements. Most of the quote 1% are surprisingly Democrats. Does the Warren Buffet tax law mean anything? Can we say George Soros? Look at the stats and you will find the Democrats are represented in greater numbers than the Republicans.
Well I think we can all agree that Mitt Romeney is a definite leader in the Republican candidacy. If you need any convincing, here is is (http://www.pressdisplay.com/pressdisplay/showlink.aspx?bookmarkid=AQ8H0TBAPW32&preview=article&linkid=f11e9798-bab4-42c3-9519-bceeb4071a25&pdaffid=ZVFwBG5jk4Kvl9OaBJc5%2bg%3d%3d). What I don’t understand is why all attention is on the Republicans whereas I still think that the Democrats will easily win, if not for Obama’s popularity than by the infamy or many a face representing conservatives.
Mr. Obama will win in November because the idiots running on the republican side are merrily killing each others chances and their own as well by giving in to their own personal vanity.
Come the fall, if Mr. Romney is the candidate, you’ll see evidence of his flip-flopping all over your TV screen all day and probably all night.
Newtie, not a prayer. Santorum, has a constant penchant to shoot himself in the foot.
Ron Paul, no way, baby, although his supporters are quite rabid, his visions will not advance America in any way.
Anyone else won’t have the time to mount a credible campaign although if they were to nominate Ms. Palin, there would definitely be some high comedy come debate time as Mr. Obama crucifies her. A Harvard trained lawyer debating someone as obviously factually challenged as her would be a riot!!
Assuming ObamaNazi permits an election, it will be stolen by the demoncrats.
You’ve got to be kidding, right?
Do the black helicopters hover over your house at night?
Isn’t the chairman of Diebold, an avid conservative the one who might be able to rig an election?
I love when Dems talk about “Romney flip-flopping” as if Obama’s entire term hasn’t been filled with it. Remind me again, who during the 2008 campaign mocked John McCain for mentioning a healthcare mandate? Hint: he became a really incompetent president who pushed the mandate he opposed. Who mocked Bush for his high spending, only to spend more in three years than Bush did in eight. Who promised to close Guantanamo? Who promised to pull out of Afghanistan? Who promised to end indefinite detention? Who opposed warrantless wiretaps only to defend them in court? The list is practically endless.
………..and you are a blind fool, touche!!
You know, buddy, what is it that makes you think that anyone who sees things differently from you is stupid? You’ve got to explain this to me.
I’ll match my IQ to yours any day of the week and come out on top.
It’s time that you folks accept that there are more than just one way to look at things and those who see things another way are not dumb or stupid.
This is the kind of talk the fat druggie promotes but it doesn’t have to be the way America thinks unless we let it be.
Think on that a little bit, OK?
Hey, why don’t you leave Bob Beckel alone? There’s no need to call him a fat druggie here.
Even if we were to think that your accusations were true – that Romney is a constant flip-flop kind of guy – we’d be left with this situation:
Romney would be on the side of truth, justice, and chocolate chip cookies for all 50% of the time, while BHO would be a lying, thieving, worthless pile of dead carp 100% of the time.
Still an easy choice.
Can’t we just throw them all out and start over?
The 2010 election certainly proved; yes we can. What this country needs is perseverance to finish the job AND maintain it. With that said, there are still the lobbyists to contend with. They remain a strong enough influence from getting our country back on track.
Yet another example of why identity politics usually brings out the lowest common denominator instead of the best for the job. Deutch is a Jew elected by Jews because he’s a Jew. No different than Samuel L. Jackson’s vote for Obummer because he’s black or the mindless, robotic perpetuation of the do-nothing, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen by lazy Cuban voters who are more concerned with keeping “la cubana” there so they don’t have to bother with issues and can go back to watching Sabado Gigante. On that topic, how is it the GOP, who controlled the redistricting, managed to create an ever more Jewish district for DWS?
The concept of ‘to the victor go the spoils’ is too much for these linguini-spined, establishment wimps to grasp. Forget about Karen Harrington, who’s est. anyway. There’s a young, conservative Jewish candidate named Joe Kaufman, who has the best chance of beating DWS.
He’s a real conservative and we need to get behind him. Are you listening, Javier? Forget about Harrington in that race and get with the program helping Joe.
Carlos,Is this a joke about Kaufman beating DWS? Kaufman is the second most toxic candidate behind deFaria in that race. DWS and the Democrat party want Kaufman or deFaria to be the nominee. Do you not see why that would be? Let me explain it to you.
Kaufman is considered a corner loon who spews hate towards the Muslim religion.That is fine, but he plays right into the ‘Republicans are extremists’ narrative that DWS and the Dems have tried to use.
deFaria has shown to be unprincipled and extremist, let alone a misogynist and sexist with his ‘collar’ stunt and videos. Again, more of the same loonacy that makes the Democrat case against the GOP.
The Republican party do not want Kaufman or deFaria for these simple reasons. Are you listening, Carlos?
Buddy, this is exactly what your talking heads on Faux News and the fat druggie promote so what do you expect?
Civility in politics is gone and the republicans led by Newtie boy started it. You guys forget that we’re ALL Americans and all in this together.
Are you using some kind of Daily Kos created Mad-Libs chart to formulate your posts? They seem to have all of the same words and lefty phrases mixed up into different combinations.
Or is that just the extent of your vocabulary?
I am a Granny and I will not concede to THIS Democratic Party. They make the GOP Republicans look like choir boys with more sensible solutions on getting America back on track. My vote will go to the party that taxes less, cuts spending, downsizes government, has a plan and a budget that balances, keeps a strong military that protects it’s people from foreign and domestic terroism,(not a civil defense as BO wants)gives us term limits for the House and Senate, the line item veto, no more lobbyists roaming the halls working for the special interests, an energy plan that uses America’s oil and gas resources supplementing with solar and wind, an education system that prepares each student to be a good citizen with a good work ethic and respects our flag and what it stands for. This Granny is not stupid or ignorant and I see our people being herded into a system other than capitalism, which by the way, the rest of the world is afraid to compete with. So listen up you young cry babies, this
Democratic party and ALL it’s nominees MUST be defeated. This is their last stand to push us into a socialist country and the next step is control of us all and that my friends is Communism. They confiscate it ALL.
