The Right Hand Not Knowing What The Right Hand Is Doing

Michael Steele, still aiming at his own foot as Josh Marshall points out.
Michael Steele is on Fox now going on about how Medicare is a wreck, completely bankrupt, and an example of how the government has already proven it can't run a health care program.

Except didn't the "health care bill of rights" that the GOP unveiled yesterday declare preserving Medicare and protecting it against any cuts an inviolable right?

Shorter Steele: Medicare is a disaster! Long live Medicare!

Right, so Medicare is an example of a government program that has failed, but of course making any cuts to such a program is against the GOP health care reform plan, and the Republican platform is officially that of preserving the program in all of its failed glory.

And people wonder why nobody trusts the Republicans on health care.
