Thanks To George W. Bush, Senior Citizens receive 25 percent OFF Healthcare & Prescription!

Qualifying senior citizens can receive up to 25 percent off their total cost of healthcare and prescription drugs thanks to the Relay for Health bill. It was made law in 2003 by former President George W. Bush.

The Department of Aging says that the county is the first in Southeastern North Carolina to take advantage of the Relay for Health bill.  SOURCE

I have a question, why did it take so long? The bill was signed into law in 2003 by President Bush and its now 2010! I guess Obama will try and take credit for this help for the senior citizens!

Most Voters Don’t Believe President’s Assertions (January 30, 2010)

Keith Olbermann

Has your taxes been cut? Are you better off today than 6 years ago? I would have to agree that jobs have been cut in the millions but taxes…where? Has prices gone up, I would have to say yes. So knowing all this how could anyone in their right mind support Obama and his socialist agenda?

The president in the speech declared that his administration has cut taxes for 95% of Americans. He even chided Republicans for not applauding on that point. However, just 21% of voters nationwide believe that taxes have been cut for 95% of Americans. Most (53%) say it has not happened, and 26% are not sure. Other polling shows that nearly half the nation’s voters expect their own taxes to go up during the Obama years. SOURCE
