On FoxNews Sunday this morning, Rick Santorum explained how the Democrats are being hypocritical about the Republican cure for Medicare.
This policy of what Paul Ryan has put together, this premium support policy, is identical to what the president argues for in Obamacare. Obamacare is a voucher system for those who do not have insurance. It sets the amount of money that those recipients get, and it ties the increase to the consumer price index, all of which is what Ryan does. When Obama does it, it's seen as a great wonderful thing for folks. When Ryan does it for Medicare, we're cruel and horrible to seniors. You can't have it both ways.

Identical! They can't have it both ways. Am I the only one who sees the hypocrisy?
