Obama joins the debate to try to save his healthcare law
The Washington Examiner ^ | March 23, 2017 | Kyle Feldscher

Obama added it's silly to just repeal his law. He also said it's not in a "death spiral" because most people haven't seen their premiums rise.

Obama called on people who believed in the fight to pass the law to stand up and defend it against repeal attempts.

"Americans who love their country still have the power to change it," he said.

I just ran into a fellow employee who retired but had to come back part time just to pay for her health care. Her monthly premium went up from about $90.00 a month to over $600 a month. She said that her healthcare hardly covers anything. She has two more years before she can go on Medicare. I’m 62 and thinking twice about retiring any time soon unless something is done about healthcare.

Yeah, that’s why your fellow polititurds passed it in the middle of the night on Christmas Eve and exempted themselves from the provisions it contains.

It should read, “Obama helps GOP repeal Obamacare.” If this doesn’t unite the Reps, what will?

2 points.

1) He’s no longer in office so he should STFU.

2) It is in a death spiral. Just because freeloaders haven’t seen premium go up doesn’t mean it’s solvent. It just means that the payers are paying more (including tax payers of the future as we borrow $$ to give freeloaders insurance today).

".... in fact," he went on, "everyone who liked their previous coverage KEPT their previous coverage. Also, everyone who liked their doctor KEPT their doctor. Not only that, but nearly everyone saved $2400 on their monthly premiums. Finally, a majority of Republicans voted for it."

Whaddya gonna do. Inveterate liars gonna lie.

Agree with you completely; Obama is an addictive personality, and golf is but one compulsion. Grey Goose and choom are right up there, along with ESPN. There are likely others we don’t know about.

I know the theory is that Obama wants to elude extradition. I don’t buy it because no one wants to be remembered historically as the most racist person who ever lived. That is how the MSM would portray anyone who made a move against the ‘first black POTUS.’

The truth is that Malignant Narcissists are among the most restless people on earth. They need to feel as if they’re the center of a three ring circus at all times. They also crave constant change. Obama most likely thought some exclusive time at The Brando would scratch this itch. But by the end of a month he’ll be climbing the walls.

He’s been raised to believe he is super special.

It’s only taken about 4 months for him to realize he isn’t.

If the “special groups” are leveled to pay even ..then everyone would pay about 150$...per. mo.
