When U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner (R-Col.) got the word that he could opt out of Obamacare or keep his current health-care plan — which you might be surprised to learn is a private plan — he took a road some might say is less traveled…and then hit a big pileup:

He breaks it down a bit more:

Instead of heading down a woe-is-me path, Gardner harnessed his unfortunate news to get a conversation going about what’s happening to people’s health-care plans in the wake of

Gee, how...”unexpected.”

Thanks to 0Care your Gold plan has just become an Aluminum plan - at a 100% premium increase.

Not only did they cancel my plan but they diagnosed me as mentally ill* all in one fell swoop. Woe is me.

That's what it says in the online Obamacare e-chart.

The healthcare of one's family is now a political weapon to be used on the same, by the government. The consequences are just as deadly as a gun, and strike fear into those as a peer group associated with the target.

Roger, Wilco!

Maybe someone smart like Joe Biden can explain what happened?

[funfan]

It’s a big effin deal.

[Jane Long]

The subsequent tweets of policy cancellations/increases/0Care-or-bust are incredible. I imagine tweets will continue as word of this Reps original tweet spread.

Gee, Thanks 0bammy Voters!

Explaining stuff is slick willies job

I hope many O voters get these as well and I do hope they make over the amount where a subsidy will not be forthcoming. I want them to feel to O care hammer just like I will F them all!

bait and switch on steroids

[Republican1795.]

I agree but the true believers still think it’s great.

The day after the 2014 elections, Traybama will send McCain on TV to announce “Single Payer” healthcare is replacing Obamacare.

Obamacare ‘collapsed’ a bit ahead of schedule, so they must tap dance for another 6 months until election season kicks in.

Till then, I’m sure George Midgetopoulos can keep the plates spinning.

[Jane Long]

true believers still think it’s great.

Wait til they see that their wonderful policies will no longer be available (after Dec 31, 2013) and they're being forced into *Marketplace Exchanges!*, or their Medicare becomes Medicaid.

See how *great* they all think it is, then.

His plan is going from $650 to $1480.

Don’t expect any rebuts from the ones that stand in long lines to buy electronics and sporting event tickets.

“I hope many O voters get these as well and I do hope they make over the amount where a subsidy will not be forthcoming. I want them to feel to O care hammer just like I will F them all!”

there are two kinds of Obama voters. the first kind doesn’t work... welfare, disability, endless unemployment. they will get it free, period
the second type who work, will feel it. here’s the problem. they are more than happy to sacrifice because its their part in the transforming of America.

And the liberal talking heads are trying really hard to ignore the elephant turd in the bathtub.

>> His plan is going from $650 to $1480.

$1480 for family is the current market cost give or take $250 when not part of a large group.

Health insurance will be the equivalent of a mortgage payment, and the vote for Obama will prove to be a painful lesson for many.
