Rudy Has A Major Mis-Step

RUDY has committed a major misstep in his most recent radio ad in New Hampshire. In the radio ad where he addresses his encounter with Prostate Cancer, Rudy says,
"My chances of surviving prostate cancer -- and thank God I was cured of it -- in the United States: 82 percent. My chances of surviving prostate cancer in England: only 44 percent under socialized medicine."

Unfortunately this is not true. While socialized medicine makes those in pain have to wait far longer for medical attention, the death rate is nearly the same as that here.

RUDY YOU HAVE COMPLETELY LIED ABOUT THIS STATISTIC. PLEASE STEP FORWARD AND TELL THE TRUTH AND APOLOGIZE!

WaPo has it here.

Disappointing Rudy, Disappointing. I really expected the GOP candidates to show a more ethical approach to politics after all that has happened over the last 7 years. Unfortunately, Rudy has not taken that approach.

Mitt Romney is the only one so far who has!
