Demonstating once again that it is not the truth that matters, it is the President’s ability to manipulate his listeners that matters.
Still yet, the government doesn’t need to overtake the nation’s health care system in order to address the issue of pre-existing conditions.
Bait and switch.
This adminstration does nothing but deceive. Now with these co-ops. Watch for a heavily subsidized and government regulated company muscling out private insurance companies. Insurance reform will be another ruse to regulate private companies out of existence. Then the Obama operatives will swoop down and bailout the insurance companies and appoint a czar for the adminstration to have de facto control in the usual fascist fashion. They can then say blame any rationing on the “private” insurance companies and remain above the fray.
Preexhisting conditions is a straw issue. First of all, to force companies to issue insurance coverage to those with preexhisting conditions would only apply to health insurance. How about for auto, home and life insurance. Why pay those pesky premiums when you can wait till you need the insurance before you actually buy it?
Insurance is exactly what it says it is, it is a bet you make with the insurance company. I bet I will need more in coverage than you will collect in premiums. Since the insurance companies rely on statistics, they know where to set the rates so they end up with a rate of return as you in effect pre pay for your needed medical needs.
The OZ-ero wants to turn this on its head. They want insurance companies to guarantee coverage to all. Frankly, I do not wish to be in a pool of individuals that includes drug users, immigrants with diseases that were extinct in the US till they got here and individuals who figure they can now game the system.
I have said this before: I do not want to pay for anyone elses: Health Care, College Educations, Car, House, or living expenses other than my family and those I chose to help out.

The child later grew up to be President ~ or something like that ~
What I'm learning from Obama and his running dog lackeys is that there's no lie so outrageous that it cannot be used to advance one's program.
>> Preexhisting conditions is a straw issue.
I agree it is a straw issue in terms of the motives driving HR3200.
The man is now and always has been a pathological liar .
He actually lies more than Bill Clinton. A lot more. I didn’t think it possible that a bigger liar than Slick could get elected President again. At least for a few decades.
Some people think they ought to be able to buy life insurance, post-mortem, as well!
It also makes me SO angry when he uses the cancer ridden child that went untreated. St. Jude never turns away a child for treatment, ever.
The Messiah LIES???? Dog bites man story. Get back to me when he tells the truth.

Aha, you're an evil-monger! LOL!
I don't sell insurance, I'm just a consumer that has experience with a serious medical condition in the family, underscoring the necessity to get insured before you get sick, and stay insured.

There isn’t much left for the glorious Messiah to screw up, is there???
And we need to take that phrase for our own. The Left used it constantly against the Bush admin. They'll hate that.
I still don’t know what it means, except that I hearing a Lefty speak.
I run into people in the business world like this. They lie when the truth will serve. They are not to be trusted.
I’m just glad we don’t have that genial dunce Reagan in the White House who would clip stories from newspapers and Reader’s Digest and repeat them without doing any fact-checking.
