Are They Killing Medicare?

2011-06-04 | Filed Under SteveG's Posts |

ActBlue says about the ad:

Here’s a snippet of the letter the National Republican Congressional Committee and Charlie Bass sent to TV stations running our new ad in New Hampshire:

The Advertisement states, in pertinent part, that “Charlie Bass voted to END Medicare.” This is completely false… a vote in favor of the [Paul Ryan] Budget Resolution was a vote to protect Medicare for future seniors.

We urge you not to ascent to this political ploy… broadcasting stations are not protected from legal liability for airing a false and misleading advertisement…

Is it a lie to say the Republicans are ending Medicare and replacing it with something else?
Or is it a lie for the Republicans to say that the replacement of Medicare with something else is preserving Medicare?
