In December, the White House said its Medicare bill with prescription drugs would cost $400 billion. Now the White House says it will cost $540 billion.
Some Republican conservatives opposed the bill because they thought it was too expensive at $400 billion. The White House solution? Lie. Keep the new estimate secret.
I keep thinking Bush and friends have hit the bottom only to find out that I am wrong. They have an infinite supply of new lows.
This is not about ideology. This is about getting what you want by playing the lying game. Even with your buddies.
