From an Aug 18th New York Times editorial: Republican attacks on President Obama’s plans for Medicare are growing
more heated and inaccurate by the day. Both Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan
made statements last week implying that the Affordable Care Act would
eviscerate Medicare when in fact the law should shore up the program’s
finances.

Both men have also twisted themselves into knots to distance themselves
from previous positions, so that voters can no longer believe anything
they say. Last week, both insisted that they would save Medicare by
pumping a huge amount of money into the program, a bizarre turnaround
for supposed fiscal conservatives out to rein in federal spending.
