Rudy's statistics for surviving cancer were

[samplegirl]

from Commonwealth which were 7 years old and completely outdated.
Who would of guessed?

1. So much for the pernicious myth that just having cancer makes one an expert.

A total fool without cancer doesn't become a seer with the onset of cancer. :shrug:

2. He failed to tell Americans........

Success rate was much better under the Rudy plan.

3. Rudy care was under socialized medicine - a gov plan, he had treatment 7 yrs ago -not 5, and

the stats he quoted were wrong.

Seems 100% of the numbers and his use of "socialized" were >> - can we say - lies?

And Rudy quoted RW media which quoted the RW Manhatten group which quoted a RW group - Commonwealth - which says the numbers are very old and out of date and in any case, Rudy and Manhatten misinterpreted the numbers to begin with.

Why is this not a "character issue" - if not the original ad, then the refusal to correct it after everyone has pointed out the errors, including the original source.

4. Me.. I posted links , minutes after he uttered those bogus statistics

This is all bout trying to scare the people away from REAL national healthcare.

No matter how good our stats are here OR there, if you are broke and have affordable access to care, you will not get diagnosed in time..

THAT's why so many men die from it.
