Jensen: The premature Obamacare victory lap

President Obama took a victory lap on Tuesday, celebrating 7 million Obamacare enrollees.

Let’s take a look at this success.

President Obama and the Democrats pushed through their signature domestic policy stating the “Affordable” Care Act would cover “every American.” They have used the figure of “48 million uninsured Americans.”

To date, Obamacare has then enrolled less than 2 percent of those uninsured Americans.

“It’s working!” exclaimed the president.

The Rand Corporation crunched the numbers and discovered only 858,000 people of the 7 million enrollees have actually paid their premiums, which is required to actually be covered.

Good editorial. Sums it up well.

These pinko socialist Rinocrats have no idea what they're up against. Well, they might, but they're too arrogant to care. That really worked well for the meathead communists in the USSR, didn't it?

Seen it before 11 years ago

Lets pray Obama and his party gets the same rewards for it.

The “Mission” isn’t going to be “Accomplished” in the Middle East until Mohammadanism is made extinct for all time.

The sign at that event was attributed to President Bush, but it was actually erected by members of the military who HAD accomplished their mission by arriving back in port. The mistake the Bush people made was thinking it was the best backdrop for his speech that day - a decision I am sure they have regretted many times.

Lol.....

I told some friends a few years back whoever had the idea of GWB standing in front of that Mission Accomplished banner should never work as a political consultant ever. Be it in this life or the next

And liberals loudly proclaim victory. Reminds me of the Arabs, after getting their butts kicked, shooting into the air and claiming victory.

858,000 not 7,000,000.

The sign was made by the White House, for the men, sailors and crew of the USS Lincoln

I stand corrected, but my point was that the members of the military had accomplished their mission since they had returned to their home port, but the media reported it as if President Bush was saying that HE had accomplished his mission.
