Messaging Isn't the Problem. Obamacare Is.
Real Clear Politics ^ | Dec 8, 2013 | Jack Kelly

“Would you consider an ATM machine to be functional if it created a lifelike experience but no money comes out, no deposits get credited, no transfers actually work?” asked Jonah Goldberg of National Review.

The Obama administration “has erected a Potemkin village online — a facade that temporarily conceals the lack of architecture behind it,” said Washington Post blogger Jennifer Rubin.

Perhaps Mr. Obama imagines he can talk his way out of anything. But his isn’t a “messaging” problem. Obamacare has done too much harm to too many people for reality to be spun or ignored.

I read an essay this morning from a senior researcher at the Cato Institute.

Total Policies - 1.6 million

Medicaid Policies - 1.46 million

The pattern of failure reveals what obamacare is...millions forced out of their chosen healthcare policies and denied a means to enlist a new carrier? The first hospital bills that hit will be hailed by the socialists as the justification for single payer and the won will wave his magic arse in the air and make it so.

"Messaging Isn't the Problem....."

.... Well ... in a way Messaging IS the problem. They just haven't told the lies often enough yet for it to eventually be accepted as the truth by the masses.

The federal Obamacare exchange is going to give you the insurance buying experience without the happy ending?

The Judge and Dr. Carson are the real deal.

I could see Dr. Carson as a VP choice in 2016. He definitely is more intelligent than anyone the Democrats have now or could run.

Pig, various lipsticks.

“Now the rainman gave me two cures
Then he said, ‘Jump right in’
Now the one was Texas medicine
But the other was just railroad gin
And like a fool I mixed them
And it scrambled up my mind
And now people just get uglier
And I have no sense of time -

Oh, mama, is this really the end - to be stuck here inside of the ACA with the ‘BamaCare Blues again?”

‘Nuff said.

- But Obama has deliberately poisoned the well for Dr. Carson and Col. Allen West and other blacks.

He is “The One” and will tolerate no honest conservative black men or women that would show him for what our young voters are now seeing 2 to 1 what he really is.
