    The Dems had such a wonderful time using George Bush, Jr. as the butt end of jokes. Seems their party's leader is even worse than Bush ever was. That's a hard trick to master.

    What comes around, goes around.

    I'm no Obama supporter, but it's hard to imagine how he's worse than Bush.

    Bill Clinton says Obama should keep his promise even if he has to change the law. Ha! pretty funny but I doubt you can back this out now though.

    No way that the insurance companies would still offer the plans at that price anyway. ALL plans were increased arbitrarily by the insurance cartel.

    Meanwhile, nobody talks about the successful parts of the program.

    The underdog of government health care programs is emerging as the rare early success story of President Barack Obama's technologically challenged health overhaul.

    Often dismissed, Medicaid has signed up 444,000 people in 10 states in the six weeks since open enrollment began, according to Avalere Health, a market analysis firm that compiled data from those states. Twenty-five states are expanding their Medicaid programs, but data for all of them was not available.

    The problem with that is that this is the portion of the uninsured who are getting "free" health insurance. Signing up hundreds of thousands of people who are on the receiving end of the system, while only getting dribbles signed up among those who will pay into the system, is not good news for the financial stability of the program long term.

    It's a good idea if your objective is to spend the country to a hasty demise.

    More and more I'm meeting people who talk about how their policies were terminated. I don't ask about it, they bring it up because it's clearly causing them some distress.

    Obama 2016!

    What the hell kind of success is that? More people were drop from coverage, like retirees, spouses and dependents than were sign up for Obama care. This was done because it is now politically acceptable and don't discount the TAX levied on the corporations for each person they covered with healthcare. Then you can see the millions that lost their policies they were buying.

    I don't know how even a progressive can count this a success! Probably lost 20 for each "pay nothing" added to the now covered count.

    closer look

    QT Huffing Post

    The first month of the new health law’s rollout reveals an unexpected pattern in several states: a crush of people applying for an expansion of Medicaid and a trickle of sign-ups for private insurance.
    This early imbalance — in some places, nine out of 10 enrollees are in Medicaid — has taken some experts by surprise. The Affordable Care Act, which expanded Medicaid to cover millions of the poorest Americans who couldn’t otherwise afford coverage, envisions a more even split with an expanded, robust private market.

    Link to story http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...jority-of-obamacare-sign-ups-are-in-medicaid/

    I could post several stories that say the same thing

    http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2013...-having-insurance-cancelled-due-to-obamacare/

    More than 1 million cancellation notices have been sent to Californians as the Affordable Care Act begins allowing individuals to buy insurance through exchanges, Jones said. The federal law requires policies to offer minimum levels of coverage, forcing companies to terminate many existing plans. But Jones said that under the law, insurers have another year to do so.

    Obama's gone into hiding since he said "I'm sorry" to the people he screwed over and lied to, deliberately.

    Now even Diane Feinstein is saying that they need to revise the law, but that fix is going to disrupt the entire financial structure of this turd. This is what happens when you pass a huge law without reading it. Partisan idiots bought the lies, including the Dems in congress; those with an objective brain knew what a fustercluck it would be, and tried to warn people.

    Anyone else feel like they can't wait for the "State of the Union" speech? I can't wait for the bullshit to spew all over the blind sheep that followed this prick into presidency

    November 12, 2013 - Obama Job Approval Drops To Lowest Point Ever, Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds; Health Care Act Won't Improve Health Care, Voters Say

    American voters disapprove 54 - 39 percent of the job President Barack Obama is doing, his lowest approval rating in any Quinnipiac University national poll since he became president, as even women disapprove 51 - 40 percent, according to a national poll released today.

    Today's results compare to a slight 49 - 45 percent disapproval October 1. President Obama's lowest score before today was a 55 - 41 percent disapproval in an October 6, 2011 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University.

    Today, disapproval is 58 - 37 percent among men, 91 - 6 percent among Republicans and 63 - 30 percent among independent voters. Democrats approve 79 - 14 percent. White voters disapprove 62 - 32 percent while black voters approve 75 - 15 percent and Hispanic voters disapprove by a slim 47 - 41 percent margin.

    Voters in every income and age group disapprove of the job Obama is doing, with the biggest disapproval, 59 - 36 percent, among voters over 65 years old.

    (Every demographic except the barfo one).
