The American Spectator

That’s a darn good question, and the reason is because I also have said that I would have opposed the Medicare Part D provision that President Bush put on, unless there was a Medicare reform that was part of the package. So actually, Senator McCain and I would have been on the same side of that vote. I did not know that that went out in a call, I’ll look into that. But for me, what I’ve always said is that on the Medicare Part D that I supported the idea of getting seniors Medicare Part D and prescription coverage, but for me that would have had to be combined with a reform of Medicare overall, which did not cause us to increase the ongoing obligation, the liability that we have by virtue of that program, and frankly, I’ve laid out what I would do in all three programs-Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security-to rein in the excessive spending. But I’ll look into that call, and I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again.
