Add to that the Health and Human Services Secretary is finishing writing the fine print. Thanks CONgressional Democrats.

Right on the button, “Dubya”...Free clinics will become a thing of the past because Mr. Obama wants equality of outcome for all...A goal which is remarkably un-American.

But then, Mr. Obama does not think like an American.

He thinks like a jealous foreigner. Very strange.

We went to school together, have been friends for 50 years, her parents were staunch Republicans...yet she lives in some sort of foggy denial when it comes to learning the truth about those whom she insists upon believing are innocent or good.

The situation with my friend is exactly the same. She loves algore also. I know other people who agree with her. If someone has no contact with liberals, they have no idea how fanatical they are.

He wrecked healthcare for 85% of the nation to serve 15% of the nation. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

And if you think it was not done on purpopse, you have a bridge in Brooklyn to buy. This is the enslavement of America. And if not ended it will lead to wholesale violence.We need to defund it and roll it back. Obama is a parasitic national socilialist, thats right, a fascist, and his method is Cloward Piven.Yes, the health care bill is designed to subject America.

...a senior neighbor, about 77 ...

Illinois Cares might be able to help.

It look like Illinois' version of PACE(PA) or PAAD (NJ).

Here is a pdf file that gives you a lot of good information re getting your drug approved.

There are specific guidelines for the approach based upon the reason for denial.

(Drug plans in general tend to follow medicare rules and regulations.)

Well, in the interest of fairness, we have to make sure that the engine that’s up on blocks and doing no productive work gets the same oil change as the engine that’s up and running and pulling the load.

ObamaCare / DeathCare MUST be repealed, replaced and/or de-funded!

I got rid of my “hypertension” by ignoring the demands of the doctors to take their stupid prescriptions, and instead, went to olive leaf extract. It not only has stopped my frequent UTI’s (due mostly to CFIDS- Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome) but has kept my BP within “normal limits.”

To prove to my doctor that I didn’t have hypertestion, I took my BP at home over a two week period, every day, but at different times of the day. Guess what? My BP was consistently around the 110/65 range and often quite a bit lower.

The culprit? The fact that the nurses take your BP when you’ve just driven across town in nasty traffic, hiked two blocks from the parking lot, and had a fight with your significant other over breakfast. The result? High blood pressure when your vitals are taken. The least they could do is wait until you’re ready to leave before they take it. The bestids.

It looks like the dems Obamacare plan was actually “die soon”

Yeah, like Nazi "healthcare" it is designed to get rid of "useless eaters" and other "undesireables".

“Oh, by the way, she believed OJ was innocent up until about two years ago and just couldn’t accept me telling her anything to the opposite that the whole world knew was true about him.”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I have a stepdaughter with a genius level IQ who will not believe OJ is guilty. I told her there are only two possibilities and all the other fantasies are absurd ramblings. One is that he is guilty and of that I have no doubt. The other possibility, if you can call it that, is that he was framed and that is what his entire defense rested on because there was enough evidence to convict him fifty times beyond a reasonable doubt if you accept the evidence. To believe he was framed you must believe that a group of professional, career law enforcement types introduced themselves at the scene (the LA police department is so big that they didn’t know each other) and said let’s get together and frame an American hero, which OJ was before this happened, for murder in face of the fact that the penalty for doing so in California is death! I would sooner believe space aliens came down and did the crime and left clues to frame OJ. She still refuses to believe he did it!

She is still smarter than her genius level IQ husband though! She voted Republican, he voted for Obama and now admits he was a fool.

Our drug plan comes under Tricare for Life. We jumped through one hoop after another, every time we’d get one done, oops you have another hoop. They even said they didn’t get the doctors paper work, called his nurse a liar. Made her hot under the collar. Took about a year.

I know someone who is looking forward to Obamacare - my aunt.

As long as I’ve known her, she’s driven a Cadillac, which was replaced with a new one every three years. Her husband purchased a new Harley every three years, and spent additional thousands each time outfitting it with the requisite chrome and leather attachments. They also vacationed every year in places such as Hawaii and Jamaica. They had both a home and a motor home.

My uncle, small business owner and sole breadwinner, died two years ago. They didn’t have health insurance, nor life insurance.

She is now broke, having gone through what they had in savings.

I live close to the bone, saving what I can after paying for health, life, homeowners, and auto insurance. My truck was built in 1995 and has 120+ thousand miles on it. My motorcycle, a Honda Nighthawk S, was built in 1986.

You and I are going to be paying for the healthcare of her and those like her who spent every penny they could lay their hands on.
