Why did Former Republican President Bush pioneer socialized medicine in the US?
It was President George W. Bush who presided over the largest socialized expansion of government-supported healthcare, Rep. Mike Ross (D-Ark.) asserted Tuesday.
Ross, a leading member of the centrist Blue Dog Democrat coalition on health issues, said that it was Bush, not President Obama, who pioneered the expansion of government’s role in healthcare.
“It was George W. Bush that passed the largest socialized expansion of our government in my lifetime,” Ross argued in an interview with a Fox affiliate in Arkansas. “It was called Medicare Part D prescription drug program. The 10 year period for it was well over a trillion dollars.”
He said that program exceeds the cost of the healthcare reform bill now before the House.
“The price tag is now under a trillion. That is over 10 years,” Ross said. “That is less money than what George W. Bush passed.”
NoBama: I find it comical that you lie.
