It is little wonder that you in the mainstream media have little or no credibility with anyone having an IQ in the double digits. I can't figure out whether you are merely ignorant, or blatantly dishonest. You editorialize as to severe ''cuts'' in Medicare spending. Annual increases in Medicare spending are not cuts. There are no proposed ''cuts'' in spending, merely smaller annual increases. Are you not able to grasp that simple concept? Only inside the Beltway and on the editorial pages of the dishonest media are increases in spending labeled as cuts. But then trying to explain even simple concepts to liberals is akin to attempting to teach calculus to kindergartners.
Let me try once more, in a way that perhaps even your simple minds can understand. You go to your boss and ask for a 10 percent raise. He says that since you have such a difficult time understanding simple concepts, he is only going to give you a 5 percent raise. OK, now for the hard part. You now have to go home and tell your spouse. Do you tell her that you got a 5 percent raise or a 5 percent cut? No, this is not a trick question.
If the truth is on your side, why lie? Why do you continue to shill for the abject liars who make up the liberal wing of the Democratic Party? Just tell the truth once in a while. It may not support your agenda, but it is good for the soul.
