You bring up this point:
No matter what we s...Bob,<br />You bring up this point:<br /><br /><i>No matter what we say, here, we are stuck with Obama Care.</i><br /><br />We are stuck with more than that.<br /><br />But, yes, all our outrage and objections are pointless.<br /><br />American apathy has overcome good sense.<br /><br />Example...<br /><br />The other day, I was explaining to a few friends what the severing of Kaiser and Inova Health meant for patients. Kaiser provides health insurance for over 500,000 people in the D.C. area, and Inova Health is the largest medical provider. Now, all those patients will be able to use only 4 hospitals. <b>FOUR!</b><br /><br />I got these responses:<br /><br />(1) I don't have Kaiser, so I'm okay.<br /><br />(2) My policy is still in force, so my kid can get such and such care.<br /><br />(3) You don't have Kaiser, do you? So, your eye surgeries next year will be covered, right? [meaning, you'll still be able to teach my kids next year, won't you?]<br /><br />In other words, if it doesn't touch you or me, then we won't worry about it.<br /><br />I am reminded of "First they came for the Jews..."Always On Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08192688822955022541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-32709503790490896332013-10-25T21:27:06.353-05:002013-10-25T21:27:06.353-05:00"he’s great at reciting Dr. Seuss."
It ..."he’s great at reciting Dr. Seuss."<br /><br />It is quite posssible that Ted Cruz knows that the USA does not have 57 states, and that a Navy Corpsman is not a dead man walking. Sure, both Obama and Cruz are products of Harvard. So what?<br /><br />We desperately need political leadership that is smarter than Barack Obama. Most people recognize that Barack baby is incompetent in the areas of economics, foreign relations, and any kind of management. <br /><br />We will live through the incompetent little bastard, and it will take us a couple of decades to clean up after him and his crew. Even people like Shaw will curse the day they ever heard of Barack Obama. He is that bad, and he is doing a predictable job of showing the world just how incompetent a US President can be. <br />Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17665311979954859271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-17896157562322076812013-10-25T21:16:52.833-05:002013-10-25T21:16:52.833-05:00No matter what we say, here, we are stuck with Oba...No matter what we say, here, we are stuck with Obama Care. We all knew that with this law everybody would get higher healthcare costs, less healthcare, and lower quality. It has been obvious for a long time that the goal is to get everybody down to a least common denominator of care, i.e., like the useless system the UK has. It will be Medicaid for everybody, and everybody will pay huge amounts.<br /><br />More people will die early. More women will have problems getting pre-natal care. Senior citizens will face the Obama death panels as doctors leave Medicare practice, and hospitals start refusing to treat old people. It will be like in the UK where if a person is over 74 yrs old, they are not even a statistic. <br /><br />This is what socialized medicine brings. Black people get the shaft from a black President. Hispanics will get it, too, except for illegal aliens who will get healthcare for free (wait for immigration "reform"). Demographics will make no difference because socialism is slavery to everyone in the system. Only fools think otherwise.<br /><br />Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17665311979954859271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-75607101231145231672013-10-25T16:19:19.369-05:002013-10-25T16:19:19.369-05:00I don't really give a shit about this Mumbo Ju...I don't really give a shit about this Mumbo Jumbo, all I really care about is the deficit, defense and the safety of our troops. whoever gives me that gets my vote...

First of all, his mother was an American citizen.<br />So please stop getting caught neck deep in horse manure. There are needs that this country cannot wait to remedy after this catastrophic presidency. Cruz being born in Canada would be no problem for Birthers, after all Cruz is half Cuban / half white, - while Obama is one third black / one third white / and one third Kenyan.<br /><br />Besides, the idea that opposition to Obama is only about racism is just a very poor attempt to disparage people who feel that he his completely out of the league of people who can really LEAD.<br /><br />For example lets take the day that he spoke at the UN. even the asswipe leader of Iran told him off. They know he is a weak kneed little sissy. He’s all about talk and he has no substance and the rest of the world’s Leaders do not respect him.<br /><br />Cruz has never been a Muslim sympathizer, he believes in America's founding principles, and doesn't hate America. While Obama made history as the first black president he also made a lot of promises for our country. Promises that he didn't keep. Do I need to elaborate? I think not.The Most Interesting Man in the Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06139603300668910468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-64915024109443944282013-10-25T15:41:36.903-05:002013-10-25T15:41:36.903-05:00Right wingers, what is your answer to combat the p...Right wingers, what is your answer to combat the political momentum you are facing? Demographics are going against you. The coming generation's upbringing of sharing and being unselfish is going to hit mainstream soon. Society is war weary, and sees the GOP as being at fault for it. Gay marriage is a losing issue for the right. So is abortion.<br /><br />The snowball effect is kicking in now. You have Bill O'Reilly losing his temper, and Sarah Palin stumping for another loser. You have a SC Republican saying "Its good politics to oppose the black guy in the White House" (seriously, thats what he said).<br /><br />You have the housing and job market creeping into a better state. You have Wall Street hitting record highs. You have the deficit starting to show signs of stability. You have the 2 wars coming to an end. You have the Tea Party looking more looney by the week.<br /><br />Is the right wing about to become nothing more than a fringe alternative lifestyle? Yes it is, the primary qualifications for being a nutball today are limited intellect combined with stunted emotions. Like the materially poor, mental deflects will always be with us but thanks to modern chemicals this group seems likely to continue to shrink in numbers and pestilence. But continue with your fantasy. I'm sure you find comfort in it. Perhaps a Ted Cruz candidacy might give you some hope.. I’m sure that the Teabaggers/Birthers/Republicans will have no trouble finding Cruz eligible to be President. after all, he's not black, and he’s great at reciting Dr. Seuss.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-70232904112412269342013-10-25T14:03:50.967-05:002013-10-25T14:03:50.967-05:00If all this was was a crappy web site it would be ...If all this was was a crappy web site it would be a short lived story.

As for Sebelius trying to tell us that Obama didn’t know anything about it!

This woman fell on her sword last night for Obama stating he was unaware of any technical problems with the HeathCare.gov website to enroll in. Now she admits she will not participate in Obamacare. I'm getting tired of hearing the same stupid shifting of blame shit. The exchange was set up for those who don't have insurance.

Overall rates would rise sharply, and the safe drivers would be subsidizing the high risk drivers. <br /><br />General principal behind most insurance: insurance premiums are affordable only when low-risk insureds are in the same pool.<br /><br />Now, if one carries insurance of any kind for years (decades) as a low-risk insured, then the rates can remain relatively stable when one age, and insurance payments have to be distributed.<br /><br />What will not allow insurance to work in the sense of affordable premiums is a pool with a multitude of high-risk insureds.<br /><br />This is not rocket science.
