Mitt Romney-Paul Ryan Campaign Launches 'Mediscare' Robocall
By Luke Johnson
The campaign of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and running mate Paul Ryan is running a robocall accusing President Barack Obama of "changing Medicare forever," according to audio obtained by ThinkProgress.
"Some think Obamacare is the same as free health care, but nothing is free," a voice says in the recorded message. "Obama is raiding $716 billion from Medicare, changing the program forever -- taxing wheel chairs and pacemakers, raising taxes on families making less than $120,000. Free health care comes at a very high price. The Romney-Ryan plan will restore Medicare funding, and protect and strengthen the program for the next generation."
The attack refers to the reduction of $716 billion in Medicare's rate of growth in the Affordable Care Act. According to Medicare actuaries, the cuts extend the life of the program's trust fund from 2016 to 2024. The reduction does not target beneficiaries, but rather cuts subsidies to private Medicare Advantage plans and payments to hospitals and other providers. Ryan also included those savings in his own budget proposal.

Hey Shitting Bull... who actually did the Robocall? Was it Romnery/Ryan, or a Super PAC (which they cannot control)?
I noticed that tiny little detail is missing from the HuffPo piece.

The call plainly states it is from Romney for President, Inc., which is a PAC. Romney has zero control over it.
Another FAIL thread, brought to us by Shitting Bull. The libtard gift of stupidity that just keeps on giving.

I wonder if she's really an American Indian or even a "she"? Anyone know for sure?

Romney for President, Inc. is Romney's presidential campaign committee. It's the Romney equivalent of Obama for America.

Fact-check: Obama’s Attack Ad on Romney-Ryan Medicare Overhaul - ABC News
The Obama campaign wasted no time before rolling out an attack ad featuring Floridian seniors voicing concerns about how Medicare cuts under Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his running mate Rep. Paul Ryan will affect them. But the ads raise questions about whether the Republican duo will really be “ending Medicare care as we know it” and increasing “seniors’ health costs by $6,350 a year.”
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/246375-dnc-attacks-romney-ryan-on-medicare-with-ad-billboards-in-tampa-
The theme of Wednesday's attacks is a warning that Romney and his running mate "plan to end Medicare as we know it."

Now, you know very well that 'Changing Medicare forever' is completely different that 'Ending Medicare as we know it'.
Isn't that exactly what Obama did?
No.
Of course it is.
Medicare remains a guarantee for America's seniors under Obama. That would no longer be the case under Romney-Ryan.
The call plainly states it is from Romney for President, Inc., which is a PAC. Romney has zero control over it.
