U.S. Senate Leader Reid Blasts Koch Brothers over Obamacare Ads
.
.
(Reuters) - U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid accused the billionaire
Koch brothers on Wednesday of being 'un-American" for spreading
headline-grabbing "lies" about President Barack Obama's healthcare law.
.
Speaking on the floor of the Senate, the Nevada Democrat blasted ads by
Americans for Prosperity, a political advocacy group backed by David and
Charles Koch. The ads feature patients discussing insurance cancellations
and costs.
.
"Those tales turned out to be just that: tales, stories made up from whole
cloth, lies distorted by the Republicans to grab headlines forming
political advertisements," Reid said.
.
Reid in particular denounced a television ad featuring a leukemia patient
who said she would die without medication and blamed the cancellation of
her previous policy. Another ad showed a woman saying her policy costs
rose $700 a month.
.

.
The ad scored "two Pinocchios" out of a possible four by the Washington
Post's fact checker Glenn Kessler, who said the commercial did not give a
full accounting comparing the patient's old plan with a new one.
.
Higher out-of-pocket costs with a new plan could be offset by lower
monthly premiums, Kessler wrote, adding that "over the course of the year,
the difference in the costs could well even out." Still, he noted the
"emotional anguish" anyone with cancer may face.
.
The Koch brothers have used their vast fortune to fund numerous
conservative causes.
.
Returning to the Senate floor later, Reid ripped into the Koch brothers
again, saying: "It's too bad that they are trying to buy America, and it's
time that the American people spoke out against this terrible dishonesty
and these two brothers who are about as un-American as anyone that I can
imagine."
