Again with the cancer.
Via Washington Examiner:
Former White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said that Paul Ryan’s Medicare reform would hurt his father who survived lung cancer — an attack that unfortunately echoes the Obama super PACs suggestion that Mitt Romney caused a woman to die of cancer.
“You’re going to hand out vouchers to seniors . . . you’re going to hand one to my father who is 83, who is a lung cancer survivor and has far different medical needs than his former White House staffing son does at 41.” Gibbs told MSNBC’s Chuck Todd.
Todd corrected Gibbs — “Republicans would say, ‘your father’s not going to get that, because they wouldn’t do anything [to his Medicare]‘” — but the former White House aide chose to suggest that Ryan is lying about his intentions for Medicare.
