CNN: Cancer patient responds to Obama advisor about why she really lost her plan…
http://therightscoop.com/ ^ | November 4, 2013 | The Right Scoop

Posted on 11/05/2013 1:42:34 PM PST by Whenifhow

Edie Littlefield Sundby, who wrote about her compelling cancer story in the WSJ over the weekend, was on CNN this evening and responded to Obama Senior Advisor Dan Pfieffer who said the reason she lost her plan wasn’t due to Obamacare. But she hits back saying that United Health Care stated they were at a tax disadvantage in the state of California and Sundby called it political cronyism.

She went on to say that thus far there are no Obamacare plans that comes close to what she had with United Health Care and this is a cause of great concern for her.

So neither ObaMao nor his henchbitch Selelius personally canceled her plan. It is clear that the new mandates were what motivated her insurance company to cancel it. Not a big difference.

ObaMao's people do not disproportionally contact her kind of cancer. They do disproportionally seek substance abuse treatment, mental health counseling, birth control and abortions.

Everyone can make the logical connection -

before Obamacare, I had this insurance policy I could afford,
after Obamacare, that insurance policy dropped me.

Even LIVs can understand this.

Making the logical connection...

****
Judge Nap just revealed an interesting nugget today.
What it means is that Obama can REWARD supporters and PUNISH opponents. Democrats may be able to get discounted rates, etc. to diminish the logical connection.

Here are a few notes from the video below.

Obamacare exempted from kickbacks/ bribes (authorizes HHS to remove ability of Justice Dept on kickbacks)

Host asks why would this be in the law?

Allows president to punish enemies and reward supporters
Never seen so much wiggle room in a law in 40 years – gave wide authority to HHS Secretary to decide which laws are enforced or not.

The price could balloon – consumer pays higher price because of kickbacks

Small potential for fraud is the credits – reimbursement provided by IRS
It can make it easier or harder to get credits

Every policy of this administration involves this.

Did her healthcare premiums drop by $2500?
Is she able to keep her health plan and doctors?
Can she get better and more affordable comprehensive healthcare plans from the ObamaCare exchange?

Three lies and OBarry’s been outed. poor woman—that sucks
Rotten Dems did this to her.

The simple fact is people like her are a drain on the system and r not worth keeping alive. That is the truth. The cold hard truth. People won’t want to hear it or accept it. It is only a matter of time before it happens to you or me or someone I love or you love. But it won’t happen to the elite, like Sen. Coburn who is now on his 3rd cancer treatment. I do wish him well.

You are right - this is Ezekiel Emanuel’s complete lives system.

Cost is not the only consideration:

The reason we want to keep our own policies and to keep our own doctors is so that we have control over which doctors we can see. (out of network care)

With Obamacare there is no option for doctors other than what is listed.

She is alive today because she was able to go to the doctors she chose. People need to have faith in the doctors they choose, which adds to the success rate of the treatment.

Dude, I know. I know.

I'm just pleased they're reporting these mass cancellations at all.
