FORTY LIES IN 40 DAYS: #39 Buerkle Gives a Warm Welcome to Ursula Rozum

Setting up forums that favored Buerkle, at town hall meetings on her home turf with her claque for support, she invited Ursula Rozum and Dan Mafei to several "debates", knowing she couldn't lose. Green Party candidate Rozum got press coverage; Democrat Mafei got criticism for declining to go to a forum that could not be fair. 

Votes for Rozum can only hurt Mafei. Buerkle is cunning and cynical. Rozum looks naive.

FORTY LIES IN 40 DAYS: #29 Annie Will Protect Your Healthcare

If Annie returns to Congress, with some thoughtful help from her town hall sidekick Ursula, she promises to continue to try to dismantle not only Obamacare but Medicare. 

Promises to "seniors" aside, she would put the healthcare of this nation in a more precarious position than it is now. She thinks everyone who deserves healthcare already has it. And she thinks there are some people who are getting it who don't deserve it.

She inscrutably and conveniently forgets that we all pay, or are "taxed", if you will, for the healthcare of those who do not have it.

She also forgets that health care is a right of all people in a civilized nation.

She forgets that she is covered, now and for life.
