Congressman Bobby Schilling (R – IL 17) has been touting his “defense” of Medicare in campaign literature. The thing that has me pissed off is that Bobby Schilling voted for future Medicare recipients to buy private insurance – ending Medicare as we know its. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that this would cost the elderly more than $6,400 directly, and more indirectly. I’m starting this blog to give people an alternative to Schilling’s hypocrisy.

How much did the last debt fight cost? How much will the next one cost?
Republicans, including our own Bobby Schilling, love to posture over a debt fight. The last one only cost taxpayers $1,300,000,000. The real cost was much more because Congressmen like Schilling turned their back on a $4billion grand bargain in favor of a much smaller "kick the can down the road" patch.
