White House touts ‘Fox News addict’ who loves ObamaCare (Bat Guano Alert)
The Hill ^ | 3-28-14 | Jonathan Easley

Posted on 03/28/2014 10:52:34 PM PDT by kingattax

The White House on Friday touted the story of a “staunch Republican” who says he’s getting the best coverage he’s ever had under ObamaCare.

“I am a staunch Republican, a self-proclaimed Fox News addict, and I didn't vote for the President,” Mark Beard, a retired psychologist from North Carolina, wrote in a letter posted on the White House website. “And I'm here to tell you that ObamaCare works. I'm living proof.”

Beard said he was paying $428 a month for chemotherapy treatment and was upset when he got a notice from his insurer saying his plan would be canceled. But he said the plan he obtained through HealthCare.gov is now only costing him $62 a month. “It's the best health care I have ever had,” he said.

“I may not be a supporter of the President. But now, I get mad when I see ObamaCare dragged through the mud on television,” he continued. “And even though I regularly tune in to conservative pundits, I'd like to tell them they're getting it wrong. ObamaCare works.”

Read post #56 there:

“I can vouch for Mark D. Bearden, PhD., as a staunch Republican.

Signed, John McCain”

.....she was a long-time feminist Democratic activist....

Just a tip Bro, never, NEVER call them 'democratic'. They're democrats of the democrat party and being such they don't even know the meaning of the word 'democratic'.

Also, they hate it when we call them the democrat party so just guess what I always do.

As I was looking at his wall, it literally froze and then when I refreshed, it was blocked and now you have to friend him to see his page.

But there is a lot of info about what he had on his wall at the Ace of Spades link above.

His name is NOT Mark Beard and he is NOT a retired psychologist. He apparently hated Obamacare in January and the White House edited his letter.

That's the beauty of Obamacare. More people will die and every dead person is a potential democrat voter, even if they died a Republican.

Obviously.

The guy outed by Ace of Spades is Mark D Bearden and I’m not sure what he does for a living, but he supposedly (according to his FB page) was contacted by zero and is a republican who is now thrilled with obamacare because he supposedly has cancer (although never mentions it on his wall) and is only paying $64 a month for fabulous insurance. Here’s more info from the Ace site just based on the article::

“Dead giveaway #1 that the writer isn’t a conservative: He refers to Obama as “the President.” That’s not how those who oppose Obama would refer to him in this context. They would say “I didn’t vote for Obama.” “I didn’t vote for President Obama.” “I didn’t vote for this president.” or something on that order.

Dead giveaway #2: They would also note that they didn’t vote for him TWICE. To further establish their credentials. “I didn’t vote for him EITHER TIME.” “I didn’t vote for him “in 2008 or 2012.” or something like that.

Dead giveaway #3: He capitalizes “President” despite the fact that, grammatically speaking, it is incorrect to do so in this context. You wouldn’t write “the doctor,” but you would write “Doctor Jones.” Only someone being overly reverential to Obama would make such an error.

Dead giveaway #4: He shills for ObamaCare. He could have stopped with: “Hey, I’m a conservative, but this law helped me.” He wouldn’t further go on to extol the virtue of a law which any conservative would hate - even if it helped him. He MIGHT say something along the lines of “Yeah. I didn’t like the law either, but you should check it out. Maybe it will help in your particular circumstance even though I understand that it hurts the majority of Americans.” His praise of the law would be fully caveated in order to fit it into an actual conservative worldview.

In short, this thing is so much bullish#t that I can actually smell it from here.”

I was able to see his wall a few minutes ago on my iPad. His birthday is June 11, 1960, so he’s 54 this year. He never mentioned having cancer on his wall. He said in February that he just got home from work and must have made 30 party platters....WTF? So much for being retired. But now he works at a deli? No wonder he pays next to nothing for Zerocare.
