He is the Joker.
Thanks for this. How many people in Congress have bothered to do what this guy just did.
This should be printed out and taken to every town hall meeting..
Obama is from Chicago where even the garbage man is on the political take.
“What paragraph two says in part A is that policy writers for the government will be allowed to make the insurance you buy cover certain ailments, and not cover others (one of which may be a condition you happen to have, which is pre-existing).
What paragraph two says in part B is that policy writers for the government will be allowed to limit the amount, level, extent, or nature of the treatment you get for certain ailments (one of which may be your pre-existing condition).
So who will be writing your insurance policy? According to the President’s plan, a new bureaucracy known as the “Health Benefits Advisory Committee.” It will be made up of 27 people, and guess how many have to be a treating doctor: One.
So if you believe President Obama’s quote to the AMA means that if you sign up for government insurance your pre-existing condition will automatically be covered, - you’re wrong, and so is the President. You’d better read the fine print on whether the gang of 26 bureaucrats plus one doctor is going to cover your pre-existing condition or not. President Obama is giving them the power to not cover you.”
IMO obamanation is a liars’ liar.
Wow.
No no no - I have been told so many times by those with whom I am “discussing” this issue - and of course by the dear leader himself - that the whole purpose of this biil is to make it impossible for anyone with a pre-existing condition to be denied healthcare (insurance).
Obviously one has to dig deeply as this guy (thankfully) has done to prove this not to be the case.
Just one more reason not to trust ANYTHING this President or Congress are saying about these bills.
These things are written to keep lawyers in business.
This is just one aprt of a 1,000 page bill and it takes hours to figure out whta is going on.
We are so screwed.

and it will probably find a way to exclude several million people..
The boy from Kenya lies again...the kool aid drinkers will be saddened.
Yeah, but ‘the plan’ is not going to deny coverage to your pre-existing condition BECAUSE it’s pre-existing. It’s just not going to be covered anyway, whether it’s pre-existing or not.
Be ready. This is coming at you. You know it is.
insurance is like gambling, you are betting you are going to get sick and they are betting you aren't. coming in with a preexisting illness is no gamble, you are sick and they will have to pay.
besides it's already here... in feb 2006 i changed insurance companies, and even though i am Hep-C+, my insurance picked up any C+ related care after i think it was nine or ten months.
If the insurance company is forced to cover “pre-existing conditions”, it isn’t insurance, and it won’t work unless they also require that every person have the same health insurance policy that covers all of the same things at about the same cost.
Under ANY other condition, a health insurance company could get a majority of the country giving them useless coverage that counts as “coverage”, so that later if the people get sick in any way, they can simply drop their useless but cheap insurance, and pay for expensive insurance that would cover their illness and can’t refuse to cover their “pre-existing condition”.
Of course, this is what Obama will give us if he gets his way — a single-payer, single-coverage plan, everybody with the same coverage at the same cost.
It’s the only way to force insurance to cover “pre-existing” condititions — to essentially force people to get insurance from birth, which really means there can be no pre-existing conditions.
With this Joker’s plan, for most people, just being alive is a preexisting condition.
