[Education and Welfare] Denny on the Radio

[Denny Huff]

Thanks Chris.  I tried to clarify that we were not receiving $1,500.00 per
month but rather just the blind pension.  I avoided the question about other
disability groups not receiving money.

Hey Denny:

Nice job on KMOX.  The representative before you made your job a lot harder
and I really think she misrepresented the situation significantly.  First,
she left the impression that each blind recipient gets over $1,500 per
month, and she referred to removing the Medicaid money as a cut.  Both are
just plain false.

Still, you were treated pretty well and got some good questions to answer.

Thanks.

Chris
