Vice President Pence’s claim about the GOP’s health care bill and Medicaid triggered Democrat Sen. Chris Murphy:
Let me be clear: The Senate health-care bill strengthens and secures Medicaid for the neediest in our society. #BetterCare pic.twitter.com/rThIZtB9zi

I'm going to say it – there is real evil in the epidemic rate of lying that is going on right now. This is not normal. https://t.co/ifkV1GWAUH

Sen. Murphy likes to use the word “evil” in reference to Republican initiatives, because “responsible rhetoric” or something.
Every person who ever disagrees with your policy preferences is a liar. You haven't changed your tune since 2010

We don’t recall Murphy being quite as troubled by something that was the “Lie of the Year” not long ago:
Reminds me of when we were told that we could keep our doctor and keep our plan. Oops! That was Obama. He never lies. Silly me.
