Republican Party of Lee County

North Carolina Congressman Bob Etheridge and Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan are both members of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee and the Committee on the Budget.  It is interesting to compare their comments regarding the proposed House health care legislation.  Note that Congressman Etheridge states:  "If you like your health plan and your doctor—you can keep them.  It’s that simple. ”  As our Pinocchio blog from yesterday points out, Investors Business Daily (who actually read the legislation) points out that is not the truth.  Perhaps Congressman Etheridge hasn't read this legislation either (add to Stimulus Bill and Cap and Trade which he obviously didn't read).  Compare Paul Ryan's comments below.  Which Congressman do you trust?
