I expect this latest politically-motivated drug plan bill to be reversed soon, by both liberals and conservatives, who were lied to about the costs.

And don't forget that the prescription drug plan Congress passed was virtually identical to that proposed in the Clinton administration but shot down by the Republicans who insisted we couldn't afford it.
Hypocritical? Sure. I thought the whole thing ill advised then and still do. And I am sure it will be rescinded or scaled down long before it goes into effect several years hence. Fault the president for a bad idea yes. But paint him with horns and a tail just because he's the Republican president elect? No. That's bad for the country.
