In a McClatchy-Marist poll released this week, 70% of registered voters who identify with the Tea Party opposed making cuts to either Medicare or Medicaid -- the government-run health programs for the elderly and the poor -- to help reduce the nation's deficit. Meanwhile, only 28% of tea partiers said they'd be willing to cut spending on those two programs.

You are probably going to need to be a little more specific here. Jamming it up their own asses is, technically speaking, &#039;using it.&#039;
Perhaps we should only give Medicare to people who can pass a citizenship test. That would cut costs quite a bit. Some deaths may occur, but -- really -- were these people going to follow the instructions on the pill bottles anyway?
It would have been even <i>more</i> courageous if he had included all current and near seniors in his wondrous, money-saving, America-saving, senior-life-saving medicare shell game.
(My mother-in-law has trouble deciding what channel to watch, so I&#039;m not sure how she&#039;ll handle all those insurance choices.)
The part that confuses me is how Ryan&#039;s plan excludes over 55s, so it won&#039;t save any money for ten years. But he says Medicare will run out of money in nine years. OH WAIT! I think I know what his plan is.
You are very correct. There is a democratic representative in Appalachia Ohio who is very popular with her constituents, even though she is a feminist liberal hippie. No seriously, she lived in a comune, and not the religious kind. The fact is, is that she goes to all of these little ex-coal towns, goes door to door, and talks to everyone she can. The result is you have a lot of people who you think would be ignorant teabaggers, voting for things like schools, and child services. It&#039;s pretty awesome and unique.

So I guess this gives Republicans a very clear mandate on how to handle this new development: double the usual levels of lying and misinformation.
It may be pie-in-the-sky dreaming, but with enough work, maybe they could get a full 100% of people who don&#039;t understand shit about shit!
Did the poll clear up the Teabaggers&#039; feelings about going back to Walbrook, or staying with their brother, Charlie Babbit?
