Anyone catch Paul Ryan telling GOP voters they were all scammed and idiots this weekend

remember 2010 elections. Remember the town halls with the screams of death panels in Obama care. Remember all those angry GOP voters going to the polls to protect America from Obama's radical socialist agenda...

turns out that was all just a lie. Sorry about that voters.

The vice presidential hopeful was asked to address "the death panels we're going to have" as a result of Obamacare, which was a term used in 2009 by former Republican vice presidential candidate and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to describe the Independent Payment Advisory Board that was established under the federal Affordable Care Act to find savings in Medicare.
The "death panel" moniker was debunked years ago, and Ryan tried to distance himself from Palin's description of the same group he continues to ridicule when he is on the stump.


Wait it was debunked? Then what exactly were the 2010 elections about? Scamming GOP voters with made up issues? Yup, sorry about that folks but don't worry I'm 100 % sure Ryan and Mitt are totally not lying now.

and the RepubliProles just grovel on their knees, and then double down watching more Fox (R) and listening to Rush (R), O'Liely (R) and Hannity (R) - the select overpaid Republican Propaganda Liars du jour.

Hey, RepubliProles. This ain't a movie. Your 1% RepubliMasters are playing you big time...

1% Republican Dandys are -- and have for many long years -- deliberately played their base of otherwise decent RepubliProles for Massive Grade-A Suckers.
