Obama: "No, these folks are going to be able to get Medicare that is just as good, provides the same benefits, but we're not subsidizing them for $18 billion a year."

Of course, if Medicare were "just as good" as Medicare Advantage, Shepard and others wouldn't prefer it. The bundle of services a subscriber gets with MA is different from what he gets with straight Medicare. When MA goes away, his pledge that no person will lose their coverage is broken. And any of this legislation now under consideration would do this.

They're liars. It is that simple.
