So when someone in WV, PA or another coal state who has lost their job dies we can blame Obama?
The ad is vile and BS, but this new info doesn’t discredit it any more than it has already discredited itself:
Just do a little thinking here:
1) If the woman fell sick just after her husband got laid off, she clearly had cancer while she was insured and didn’t go to a routine checkup WHILE insured.
2) if she contracted cancer AFTER he was laid off and it spread for 4 years that she couldn’t go to a routine checkup, that would help the twisted logic in the commercial.
Bottom line - If you can’t afford $283 per month insurance that is one thing. But one uninsured trip to the doctor for a routine checkup would not cost $300 * 48 months= $14,400. She could have gone once or twice in that time period without breaking the bank.
Plus the whole premise is BS: “She felt sick and didn’t want to go to the Doctor and then she got sick and she went to the Doctor and that’s how we found out”.
Bottom line “she didn’t feel sick and didn’t go to the Doctor and then LATER felt sick AND THEN went to the Doctor, but it was way too late”
Maybe a guy “wouldn’t go to the doctor” but women go when they feel sick.
The whole ad is a scam ( as is most of Obama’s other ads ).
