Ya gotta give it to him, he is slick!

Lots of speeches about how there won't be enough money for Social Security,
how Medicare is on its last legs AND then how he is saving the taxpayers
money by his Medicaid reductions.

Just had one of the folks that I helped with their SS paperwork come over
with a notice she just got.  It certainly explains a lot.

MediCAID is being reduced at the expense of MediCARE.

Effective January 2006, MediCAID coverage for prescription drugs stops for
all folks who have MediCARE.  Folks with MediCARE will be covered for
prescriptions under MediCARE and with a share of cost.  For the folks that
are the poorest of the poor, this means more out of pocket!

Yup, he is slick and always at the expense of the folks who can't afford his
balancing act.
