Florida and the Medicare rate hike
Maybe I've missed discussion on this already, but is it really a coincidence that these Medicare numbers (17% rate hike) are coming out right at the time Floridian seniors have no power, no tv, and no reason to care right now about politics?

Everything this administration does has a purpose, and that is to hide the utter and complete failure for the American people that it is.

1. The NeoCons will stoop to even new lows...
Don't they know that These kinds of governemnt services are basic human rights, that many people desperately need to maintain their quality of life.

Repubs are evil, they don't care if seniors have to do without some nicities in life to afford the drugs tey need, they just don't want to lend a helping hand.

It pisses me off that these seniors have to pay for their own medications, it just isn't fair!

2. They won't miss it
Believe me, they'll be on top of it. And they'll be furious. They're already furious about that drug discount program.

3. No power? They can still read the paper!
They will see and I'm sure they are going to be angry.
