Obama to Hire Thousands of Community Organizers at $20-$48 Per Hour to Help w/Obamacare Enrollment
Gateway Pundit ^ | July 25, 2013 | Jim Hoft

The Obama Administration will hire tens of thousands of health care professionals, union workers and community activists as “navigators” to help Americans choose Obamacare options. The “navigators” will be paid $20 to $48 per hour plus benefits.

The Washington Examiner reported, via I Own the World:

Tens of thousands of health care professionals, union workers and community activists hired as “navigators” to help Americans choose Obamacare options starting Oct. 1 could earn $20 an hour or more, according to new regulations issued Wednesday.

The 63-page rule covering navigators, drawn up by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, also said the government will provide free translators for those not fluent in English — no matter what their native language is.

“The proposed requirements would also include that such entities and individuals provide consumers with information and assistance in the consumer’s preferred language, at no cost to the consumer, which would include oral interpretation of non-English languages and the translation of written documents in non-English languages when necessary to ensure meaningful access,” said the regulations.

The rules also addressed conflict of interest and other potential issues that navigators could face as the public’s first stop on the Obamacare trail.

It is still not clear how many navigators will be required. California, however, provides a hint. It wants 21,000.

That could be an expensive proposition. The proposed rules, now open for public comment, suggest an estimated pay of $20-$48 an hour.

I will be blunt as to where this is all headed. It ends with teeth being pulled from corpses with pliers for their gold content.

I now actually have no words to express my disgust. I’m completely flabbergasted, and I’m a former Sailor who even cusses to this day at the TV. I’m speechless.

Reeling from his over 4 year failure to achieve his stated goal of “Fundamentally changing the United States of America,” Communist Tyrant B. Hussein Obama has embarked on another expensive road trip to try to sell his Commune-Style power grab of 1/6 th of the US economy by promoting the idea that increased Federal debt is the best way of salvation for the over-taxed Middle Class.

The problem is not with loyal Communist Obama, as he is just doing what his Communist trainers have taught him to do.

The problem lies with the sorry House RINOs who keep John Boehner on as their useless, Commie Obama enabler Speaker.

Nothing is going to help Commie Obama more than to keep John Boehner on as Speaker of the House.

Boehner has repeatedly stated his baseless fear that “If the Republicians stand up and oppose Obama we might be blamed by the Liberals for __________________(Fill in the blank).”

It is time for the House RINOs to step up to the plate and fight FOR The Republic, and not wallow in the baseless fears of losing the fake prasie of Liberals when a “Bi-Partisan Cave-In” is finally agreed to.

The reality is that WE would cheer “Shutting down the Government,” and it’s ‘non-essential’ Federal expenditures, or “playing politics” with Commie Obama’s “phony scandals” such as the Obama coverup of the Benghazi Massacre, or the NSA, or IRS, etc., etc., etc.

Rather than taking the fight TO the enemy, in this case the inexorable attempt to turn our Republic into a Communist State, Boehner has consistently shown that he is not a fighter by running away FROM the enemy.

It is time during Commie Obama’s con-artist tour of the remaining Liberal bastions in America for us to demand from our sorry House RINOs that they depose scardy-cat Boehner as Speaker, and install a FIGHTER worthy of our trust in his/her record of defeating Communist Con-Artists such as B. Hussein Obama.

What say all of you?

Can you imagine all of the identity theft crimes those thugs will commit? I would rather give my social security number, date of birth, and medical history to the Crips and the Bloods.
