The Obama administration wants you to bring a side of healthcare politics to your family picnic this weekend.
After ObamaCare’s big win at the Supreme Court last week, federal health officials are serving up some tips about talking to family members who may be less-than-enthused that ObamaCare is here to stay.
“You should be prepared when Aunt Janine says something like, ‘Obamacare hasn’t helped anyone!’” a spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services wrote in a blog post on Thursday.
For instance, if your Uncle Ted starts calling Obamacare a train wreck, you should calmly explain that he’s “gotten ahold of some old talking points," the spokesman recommends.
Then, he suggests that you recite a three-paragraph response citing 14 figures ranging from healthcare inflation to the growth in full-time versus part-time employment.
“With greater access to affordable, quality health insurance, the Affordable Care Act is helping individuals and strengthening our economy!” the sample script goes.
“Now would you like more corn?”
And what to do if your brother talks about how much he wants to start his own business but is afraid to lose his employer coverage?
Sample reply: “The Affordable Care Act can help!”
The blog then specifically notes that the exclamation point is a sign of enthusiasm about ObamaCare but is “not an instruction to scream at your family.”
The White House is dishing out talking points on ObamaCare less than one week after a Supreme Court decision affirmed the healthcare law for the second time in three years. Since then, the administration's campaign to promote ObamaCare has shifted into overdrive.
“I’m feeling pretty good about how healthcare’s going,” Obama told a group in Nashville, Tenn., on Wednesday, taking a victory lap on his landmark healthcare legislation.
No, but 0 had been the butt of mockery in my family, including from the youngest of the children.
Yeah, but anytime I talk about anything having to do with Obama my wife accuses me of having to touretts syndrome.
I fired pajama boy--it's my gig now!
And then I thanked the young sucker for paying more than his fair share of the cost increases.
“If it wasn’t for young stupid folk like you, it would have been way worse!!”, “THANK YOU”
I’ve talked with my family about Obamacare - frequently, including tonight over dinner. We discussed what was wrong with the federal government ordering people to buy a product they do not want from a private company. We discussed the damage that Obamacare will do to the sick, including slowing the pace of medical research in all areas other than cutting costs. The family consensus is that Obamacare supporters are either uninformed or evil; there is no respectable excuse for approving of such a law.
The discussion went something like this...
That mother f**ker can kiss my ass!
Who does that son-of-a-bitch think he is?
He can go to hell as far as I am concerned!
So, yes, we disCUSSED it, Mr oblahblah.
So I have everyone over and tell them what I think of oblahblahcare? That’ll make for a good time! How’s ‘bout I segue into support of pro-life or opposition to the homo-fascist agenda? What if I skip all of that and tell them about the monumental incompetence of the halfwit Marxist occupying the space reserved for a legitimate Commander in Chief? Want some more corn with that?
A: "Lied"
As in - Obama Lied
"Banana hammock"
Why, yes, we have. All negative talk.
“Have you talked to your family about ObamaCare lately?”
LOL
No, but we sure have been talking about Barry Soetero and his commie minions.
Have a great 4th of July!
Oh yes. My father, mother, sister and brother in law discuss it regularly.
I doubt Obama would be happy about the tone of our conversations.
