And just how are Michelle and O's daughters "critical to the survival and prosperity of the nation"?
Oh, I forgot, "some animals are more equal than others."

President Obama’s health care TV special turned out to be more revealing than he intended. When asked whether he would accept the limitations on care prescribed by a government run health plan like Medicare when it came to members of his own family, the President responded: “no.”
“A national health care plan is aimed at ensuring a minimum standard of care for ordinary people who don’t have the resources for better care,” the President explained. “People with missions critical to the survival and prosperity of the nation—like the president, cabinet, members of congress and the like—will, naturally, need to receive the best care possible.”
The President explained that a cost/benefit calculus will be applied in decisions made under his plan. “We can’t just throw money around,” Obama said. “Persons of higher value to the nation will qualify for more expensive efforts to preserve their lives and health. It’s like a baseball team investing more in the health of a superstar than they do in a bench-jockey or minor-leaguer.”
The President further assured Americans that “those who are willing to spend their own money—like I would if it’s my wife, if it’s my children—can pay for their own care. We won’t outlaw private purchase of services like they do in Canada’s ‘single-payer’ system.”

This government is critical to the survival and prosperity of this country? Ha ha ha ha .....what a laugh. That kind of comedy is almost worth the trillions they are costing us.
Do as I say and not as I do. The Obama’s send their kids to private schools in DC yet wish to deny educational vouchers for those in DC who wish their kids to also go to private schools. This satire piece is way too close to reality!
How many more times does this leader of the donkeys have to expose his communistic tendencies...that sounds like something a communist leader would have said...it’s just disgusting to listen to and I 1000000% guarnantee the blind sheeple are shaking their head that yes, “napoleon” should be fed first and best...
seriously this is carbon copy Animal Farm stuff where napoleon keeps changing the rules to benefit the pigs while the useful idiots cheer him on until they are so bamboozled it’s too late when their eyes are opened...we are on that path.
Doh! missed the satire column again...even still it’s not that tough to make the leap on this and what was written.
Socialism my ass. This is serfdom.
Egg on my face AGAIN. LC walks off sheepishly. :)
No different than the soviet union
Satire?? Hell no it isnt. This is the plain bald-faced truth posing as satire.
Too bad the “little people” are not intelligent enough to understand this important distinction
No. HIS health plan is top-notch platinum, paid for by us. Same for congressjerks. They are acting like an upper class elite with special privileges while they throw crumbs to the ordinary people.

I didn’t watch it.
Did he really say this??
Is there audio of it?
Well done Mr. Semmens.
Ya got ‘em again.
No. This is satire, albeit rather close to the mark.

No doubt, no doubt. You have prophesied once again.

Of course not....The Obama’s are Royalty.......NO, no, they are Muslims, and here is a more scare scenario for the future of your children’s children. It is very scary but true. One could say the abortionists and their hooligans have won the battle. The muzzies fight this effective “battle” without shedding blood in the bedroom. “Spread it around to everyone YOU know!!!
How right you are. John's articles tend to 'pick the scab off the sore'.
Check the source.
Ha, ha, another gem John. I’d like to see that question actually put to the Dems. They’re probably paying off their media flunkies to not ask that question.
