Lies! Lies! Lies!

The healthcare lies and distortions from the PAC's are reaching a shrieking crescendo. I just saw a breathtakingly disingenuous ad paid for by "Future Fund." I counted four outright lies and three gross distortions in the ad.

It turns "future fund" is a front for a hedge fund invested in companies that make diagnostic imaging technology. (This sector of the medical economy generates billions of dollars in unnecessary billings to insurance annually. The health care bill tightens fraud controls on this sector significantly.)

Clearly they are an unbiased source of information!
