President Obama is at it again. With regard to his Medicare reform, the American people ought to know that what he is proposing is pure double talk. He tells us that there will be no changes in benefits. What he is not telling us is that the payout for these benefits will be greatly reduced because he is pulling $720 billion dollars out of Medicare to pay for his Obamacare.

There are many doctors in this area who are already refusing to take Medicare patients. Next, it will be the hospitals who refuse and they have every right to do so if they want to remain viable. What people must understand is if doctors refuse to take Medicare their secondary insurance will not accept or process the claim. The American people need to be aware of what's coming down the road if Obama gets re-elected.
