Obama: We’ve Made Health Care ‘More Affordable for All Americans’
Breitbart.com ^ | 3 Dec 2016 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 12/03/2016 7:07:48 PM PST by Rockitz

During Saturday’s Weekly Address, President Obama touted the 21st Century Cures Act, and stated that over the last eight years we’ve made health care “more affordable for all Americans.”

Transcript as Follows:

“Hi, everybody. On the first day of my administration, I promised to restore science to its rightful place. I told you we would unleash American innovation and technology to tackle the health challenges of our time. Over the last eight years, we’ve delivered on that promise in many ways, both big and small — including, of course, providing health coverage to 20 million more Americans, and making health care more affordable for all Americans.

“and making health care more affordable for all Americans”

Than what? Personal atomic bombs? Than a G550? Than an Obama vacation?

What a parasitic SOB and his minions called the MSM who are not acting as the opposition as they openly say they are required to be for Trump.

We had to go into the exchange when my wife retired (I'm self-employed):
2014: BCBSIL, Bronze - $674/mo. cancelled.
2015: BCBSIL, Bronze - $1069/mo. Cancelled.
2016: BCBSTN, Bronze - $1101 - Cancelled.
2017: Humana, Bronze: $1600/mo.

We're going outside the exchange for a ACA-compliant plan with Farm Bureau for $1352/mo. I go on Medicare in April.

One can only conclude that Obama does not consider the people paying for his healthcare disaster to be Americans.

Obamacare is no more than the “lawful” rape of the American Middle Class. It needs to be dismantled and destroyed!

Not only did he lie about it being affordable but he lied about giving Granny pain meds. This includes CANCER PATIENTS.

No, he is absolutely aware of what is happening - and the Trump election made it very clear. I’ve realized over the years that when Obama makes generalizations about “Americans” he is usually just referring to black people.

He’s obviously speaking to his fellow government “workers” and the “gimmedats” who take and never earn. This would be over 50% of the total population. Keep beating that lying drum. In about 47 days his little drum will be wisked away.

"I think what he means is 'from each according to his means to each according to his needs.'"

Hillary must have been unusually needy. At least it helps a lot if you are needy and a Democrat.

cant this AHOLE just go away??? It’s already December. Is there a time machine that can accelerate to January 20?

Got news for you - he ain't leaving the stage. Who do you think the DNC Media would prefer to aim their cameras and microphones at? Bammy - the smartest and best President ever - or that racist Trump? Obumbler is NOT leaving the District of Corruption just so he can continue this charade of lies way past the end of my life-time. Especially now that his hand picked Obie policy continuum has lost his LIES are going to continue at a ferocious rate.

Gallop has Liar-In-Chief's approval rating the highest since Feb 2015, at 53%, and RCP has approval also at 53%

The only way to solve this is to TURN OFF YOUR TV. The culture brought to us by TV and public education has left you and me behind and I personally am glad of it. The only thing I watch on TV is reruns like Seinfeld, Hogans Heros, and other such more wholesome shows (by today's standards).

The media is going to be more vicious about Trump then they ever were about Reagan or Bush 43. Take that to the bank - their Marxist Socialist lost and they will never let us forget it.

Obama has no power after he leaves office; watch how many libs treat him as they do any other unemployed black guy. His election was only enabled by a horrible Republican candidate (McCain), and prolonged by massive propaganda after four years of failure. Many of those Americans that voted for Trump probably won’t be voting “D” again for a while - and certainly not because Obama asks them to do so.

Many blacks who could have put Hillary in the White House ignored Obama’s ORDERS to vote for her; he already lost that fabricated magic touch.

Funny how a person who has FREE health care for the rest of his life can expound on this topic. He is beyond delusional.

BTW- Congress exempted itself from Obamacare, also. & they have some pretty swell benefits-—even if they ONLY SERVE 2 years in the House of Rep.

These benefits need to be changed. They are on a gravy train of their own design.

The NHS in the Uk did this, It's ok and charming.

Until you adjust for the illegal.

The person who doesn't pay tax.( let's not even think of the "locals.")

Just sponges.

Nobody will do it for us,

And if you don't understand us. Don't ask.

” and making health care more affordable for all Americans.”

He KNOWS this is false and at least half of us (Trump voters) know it.

He knows that large numbers of Americans are laughing at him.

What am I missing?

“Half-breed? Really? You are living up to all the criticism l normally would see as false, but you have made true with use of this bigoted term.”

Any term used to describe Obola cannot be bigoted enough as far as I am concerned. There is a special place for him in Hell!
