Medicare Premiums To Rise By 17.5%
Percentage Increase Biggest in 15 Years

By Ceci Connolly
Washington Post Staff Writer
Saturday, September 4, 2004; Page A01

Health insurance premiums for senior citizens enrolled in Medicare will rise 17.5 percent in 2005, bringing the total monthly payment to $78.20, Bush administration officials said yesterday.

As most Americans began the Labor Day holiday weekend, federal health officials held a late-afternoon briefing to announce that the 42 million disabled and elderly Medicare beneficiaries will be hit with the largest premium increase in 15 years.

7. Amazing isn't it?!
Apparently, this one book is being heralded, by the neocons, as the end of Kerry..the "truth" finally exposed so everyone will now vote for Bush. Yet over 10 million viewers and 130 million dollars later F/911 is dismissed as simply "propaganda" and nobody will be swayed by it! "But check out this book! It is the truth!!!"

Not to mention anti-Bush books have been dominating the bestseller lists for a few years now. Al Franken's "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them" was #1 for nearly two months! But this ONE book by some bitter old Republicans is gonna suddenly come on the scene and blow them all away! Riiiiight!

Negative = Desperate. The more negative the cons gets, the more we know they are in trouble. Only people sure of themselves and their platform radiate confidence. I have yet to see true confidence among the freepers!

6. Hey! When did facts and issues start to matter?
All I want to know is if John Kerry was really in Cambodia for Christmas and if there was hostile fire when he pulled that guy out of the river.
