Booker: “Free Health Care for Illegals Is Just Common Sense” [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 7 July 2019 | John Semmens

Posted on 07/08/2019 10:12:51 AM PDT by John Semmens

Long-shot presidential contender Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) defended the field’s unanimous endorsement of free health care for those entering the US illegally. “Many of those crossing our southern border bring deadly diseases with them,” he pointed out. “Treating them strikes me as pretty much a ‘no brainer.’ In fact, the more I think about it, I believe that to get out in front of this potential pandemic we need to extend free health care to every potential immigrant. If we can cure them in their home countries they’ll be in better shape for the long journey, less likely to die along the way, and healthier when they do arrive.”

The Senator congratulated himself for “thinking outside the box” and “demonstrating the kind of vision that the next person to be our nation’s president needs.” He also took credit for “personally escorting five undocumented individuals past border guards and into the United States,” an accomplishment he gleefully contrasted with rival candidate former Rep. Beto O’Rourke’s (D-Texas) unsuccessful attempt to help a migrant break out of a Mexican detention center.

The goal posts are now set at 1” high and 1000’ wide.
I’m still waiting to watch the GOP-e kick a field goal.
The American Voter will go APE if they are told they need to pay for their own healthcare AND ever illegal who says they can’t afford it.

Mean time from the GOP Senate and House...nothing but crickets.

The GOP is probably OK with this as they would like to raise taxes as well as get cheap labor. For them it’s a win-win. Is ANYONE from the GOP stating the obvious, that if we keep these disease infected illegals out of the country, we won’t have to provide them with FREE healthcare?

I know this is satire but it is semi-satire enough that it could be true.

Booker and the entire democRAT clown car of candidates think Americans should be mandated to enroll in ObamaCare and if they don't take it, they are penalized.

ObamaCare is NOT healthcare. It is insurance. Insurance with huge deductibles and hefty monthly premiums and co-pays.

With deductibles so high that the majority of people never reach the deductible amount, it is essentially a scam to bleed you of your money every month and never cover anything. It is worthless.

If you have to cover $8-10,000 or more a year in medical expenses before the policy starts paying, it is essentially a government mandated scam to fleece you of your money. There is nothing FREE about it.

The democRATS want to give FREE health coverage to illegals, not insurance. They have lost their senses. Giving illegals FREE anything will continue to encourage people to flood across the border to take advantage of the American taxpayer via the largesse of the congress giveaways.

In the course of just a few short years the democRATS have completely flipped from helping their constituents who vote for them, to discarding them in favor of illegals who are not citizens or voters.

I’d like to see all far left politicians and gladiators transfer THEIR healthcare to illegal border jumpers. They don’t need it.

They need to cut off all money to illegals. If they have to eliminate entire programs to do it then so be it.

Cory Booker qualifies as a FOOL of the First Rank.= He deserves a number of swift kicks in the “toucas”, until he resigns his position & leaves Congress.
