Bush Health Law helps lower cost of drugs

-
Roanoke Times, 11-28-11, Pg 1, 12: “ObamaCare” Health law helps lower cost of drugs.
-
The RT editors credit ObamaCare with the benefits of the Medicare Part-D drug program all the way to the small print at the end of the article way back in small print on Pg 12.
-
This program was disparaged by the Editors of the Roanoke Times and their Democrat friends throughout the legislative process and the programs introduction.

It was Bush and Republicans in Congress that spearheaded the senior drug program to help reduce the financial impacts of drug costs on seniors. The program covers 47 MILLION older and disabled people and about nine in 10 have some kind of prescription plan.
-
All this was done WITHOUT ObamaCare and the associated nationalization of the healthcare system by the Democrat Washington bureaucracy.

Congress had the ability, since the outset of Part-D, to give a uniform coverage to all Medicare recipients. The Democrat controlled Senate and Congress and Obama had ample opportunity to modify the program.  The current ObamaCare plan sets out a schedule to do so by 2012.

So why does the Roanoke Times Headline present the main message of this story as crediting ObamaCare for “lowering cost of drugs”?
Why wasn’t Bush and the Republican Congress credited with this program up-front?
Why was ObamaCare and therefore Obama presented as the focus of Medicare Part-D?
The improvement of the benefits for the so called “doughnut hole” people is indeed good for those impacted by it, but it is in fact a small fraction of those who benefit from the Bush program.

Why can’t the Editorial Girls at the Roanoke Times present a balanced and fair picture instead of being a portal and media outlet for the Obama reelection committee?
