Information about Obamacare:

Obama’s approval ratings are at 37%.

When 5 million Americans have lost their doctors and their plans, Americans are not amused.  That small white letter arrived in numerous households.

Further, another promise from Mr Obama:

Lowering the premiums per family, $2,500 per year. A promise broken again.

Recently, some polling numbers:

55% disapprove of the way Mr Obama is handling his job;
52% have an unfavorable impression of Mr Obama;
57% oppose Obamacare;
65% oppose the individual mandate;
71% want to delay the Affordable Care Act;

These numbers are from the Washington Post-ABC News poll, November 14th – 17th.

Gallup then weighs in, November 7th to 10th:

“Is the government responsible for healthcare?”

NO  = 56%
YES = 42%

Additionally, the New York Post is reporting that the Census Bureau may have fabricated unemployment figures during the last presidential election.  As in: purposely pulling those numbers down.  If the unemployment numbers were deliberately manipulated for an election, there should be major political consequences, possibly even criminal consequences.

Up to a HUNDRED MILLION insurance policies could be canceled between now and next year.  Those covered by employers will be SACRIFICED in 2014.  Like ME.  The population of the United States is, by the way, 310 million.

That means: a THIRD of Americans will have their healthcare slaughtered.

No repercussions?

Obamacare: what next?

ObamaKare 5Here, Megyn Kelly interviews Brit Hume:

“What we’re discovering is that buying insurance is a little more complicated than we thought.”

— Barack Hussein Obama

Really?

This is the same man declared to be the smartest, most insightful person in politics today?  The man whose legacy, as he wishes, is Obamacare?  And because it’s his “showpiece” we’re to believe he had no idea that Americans would lose their coverage?  We’re to believe he had no idea how “complicated” is the purchase of health insurance?  Who had no idea the website was tanking because it had a political “go” date instead of an “it’s ready” date?

This is the same man who demanded insurance carriers conform to Obamacare, and now demands the insurance carriers not conform to Obamacare.  The same man who can, by dint of a verbal decree, change the ACA as he wishes, at the drop of a hat.

This is the same man who proclaimed that the insurance policies you once had were crap, were junk, were harmful, were dangerous — and now, wants you to have those same policies BACK?  Does anyone think that insurance carriers are focused and/or concerned about retrograding?  Does anyone think that insurance carriers can change the policies, in 30 days, that it took them 3.5 years to re-craft?

What the hell?

“When your enemy is on fire, don’t just stand around and watch, throw some gasoline on him.” ~ Andrea Tantaros on The Five

And with that, there you go.

A naked takeover of 1/6th of the entire national US economy at the behest of all the Demorats and none of the Republicans.

Obamacare came by Dictatorial Fiat, then and now.  Mr Obama has NO Constitutional authority to make ANY of these changes.

Obama’s sycophants think there’s still really nothing very much wrong.  Check Debbie Wasserman Schultz here.

I wrap up today’s insanity with the comment from another insane person, Nancy Pelosi, who told us we had to pass the ACA so we could know what was in it.  Pelosi said “I’ve never met anyone who liked their insurance plan.”

Of course.  That’s certainly justification for forcing, now, millions of Americans off their current health plans.

I could never, in a thousand years, have written fiction like this.  Except that it’s not fiction.  It’s happening.

“Democratic Unity On Obamacare Is Collapsing”

Obama DictatorFrom the BusinessInsider.com:

Nov. 13, 2013, 10:35 AM

Another non-red state Democrat — this time Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) has signed on to become a co-sponsor on legislation from Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) that would require insurance companies to continue offering their existing health care plans.

Really?  Can we believe this?

Merkley joins Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) as surprise, bright-blue state Democrats that have become co-sponsors of the bill over the past day. Together, they amount to the most high-profile non-red state Democrats to buck party lines on the Affordable Care Act. 

Feinstein?  Actually turning against the Demorats?

Among other things, the “Keeping the Affordable Care Act Promise Act” would “grandfather” in all health insurance plans that existed as of Dec. 31, 2013, not March 23, 2010, and force insurance companies to continue to offer a number of plans that they have been forced to cancel under the Affordable Care Act. 

Landrieu’s bill goes even further than one proposed in the House by Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.), which would allow insurers to grandfather in plans that existed as of Jan. 1, 2013. The Landrieu bill would force insurance companies to grandfather in those plans.

A very telling paragraph in the story:

The other co-sponsors of the bill are red-state Democratic Sens. Kay Hagan (D-N.C.), Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), and Mark Pryor (D-Ark.). Like those three (but not Feinstein) Merkley is up for re-election next year. 

Ah.  There we go.  The re-election cat is stuck in the toilet.

Cat ToiletIt’s political.  It’s about a re-election.  It’s about not sounding as stupid as the rest of the Demorats sounded whilst embracing Obamacare in a wondrously-cuddly fashion.

It’s about not sounding as STUPID as Nancy Pelosi sounded whilst bleating this bit of lying trauma:

Because, frankly, in the history of America, no other single individual has a verified quote that can be immured as that idiotic.  And that’s a lot of history, ladies and gentlemen.

The White House and Senate Democratic leadership have not offered specific comment on Landrieu’s bill.

But let’s briefly examine the proposed bill for a moment, shall we?

Please allow me to posit the obvious, following The Logical Extension.

If people can keep their current policies, and the doctors they like, then what’s the point of having ANY portion of ObamaCare continue at all?

Let’s throw aside the curtains and remove the shadows.

Obama and his Leftists want to totally tank this country and then start over.  They want to ruin its economy, its standing, its power, and transfer that power to themselves beginning with — the government.

I ask: is the worm beginning to turn?

The glory of Obamacare: “Analysis: Tens of millions could be forced out of health insurance they had”

From McClatchyDC.com:

[Honesty In Blogging 101: in the 70s, I worked for both McClatchy Broadcasting and McClatchy Publishing, for radio station KFBK AM and FM, and for The Sacramento Bee newspaper as a photographic stringer.  I met Eleanor McClatchy, daughter of C.K. McClatchy, who ran the empire from C.K.’s death in 1936 until 1978, whilst the business still occupied 21st and Q Streets in downtown Sacramento.]

By Kevin G. Hall and Anita Kumar

— Even as President Barack Obama sold a new health care law in part by assuring Americans they would be able to keep their insurance plans, his administration knew that tens of millions of people actually could lose those policies.

Please let me repeat the most important part of that sentence — a part that I already addressed here — and that is:

“his administration knew that tens of millions of people actually could lose those policies.”

Finally, a slight portion of the American media begins to realize that a lie has been cast by the revered and untouchable Obama Administration.

But the most important part:

And a report in 2010 said that as many as 69 percent of certain employer-based insurance plans would lose that protection, meaning as many as 41 million people could lose their plans even if they wanted to keep them and would be forced into other plans. Another 11 million who bought their own insurance also could lose their plans. Combined, as many as 52 million Americans could lose or have lost old insurance plans.

Backing up what I referred to and wrote here.  This was already known by Demorats and, despite that, they doubled down their vote in the dark of night.

Obama lied.  The Demorats knew he lied.  They doubled-down and voted All Ahead Flank speed whilst, at the same time, not ONE Republican voted for the ACA.  It passed 219 to 212, by seven votes.  The greatest clusterfuck foisted upon the entire nation passed by seven Demorat votes.  Mr Obama couldn’t sign it fast enough.

Obama lied.  Then Obama lied about the lie.

Another interesting point:

Later in June 2010, Sebelius’ department published estimates in the Federal Register that 39 percent to 69 percent of employers’ fully insured plans would relinquish the coverage they had prior to the March 2010 passage of the ACA and thus would have to cancel or change policies.

My take on the very honest and humble Kathleen Sebelius here.

Again, play to your heart’s content for the sheer audacity of the LIES:

And there you have it.
