Ted Cruz Brilliant Before Healthcare Open Enrollment
Vanity | 9/25/2013 | Self

Posted on 09/25/2013 3:12:19 AM PDT by sr4402

Ted Cruz is brilliant to filibuster before Healthcare open enrollment. Now that Ted Cruz has forced attention on the train wreck that is Obamacare and Forced the Elites in Washington DC to LISTEN to the myriad of folks who are hurting because of this Obamination of a law, now that He had Forced the press to report on his filibuster, stories will now start trickling out before the dam bursts on the broken families, the broken businesses and the broken economy Obamacare is creating.

Ted Cruz read story after story, written by folks hurting badly because of Obamacare. Stories of Business dying, of scaling back (to under 50 employees), of employees, who are personally hurting, due to lost wages at 29 1/2 hours a week.

BUT MORE STORIES ARE ABOUT TO COME OUT IN JUST TWO WEEKS. With open enrollment many are going to find out they NO LONGER HAVE HEALTHCARE. More are going to find their healthcare SIMPLY UNAFFORDABLE. And MANY ARE GOING TO SPEAK OUT.

And the Mainstream (Useless) Press is going to have a hard time ignoring these hurting people. And besides Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi who foisted this Obamination upon us, I blame the Mainstream Press who has Intentionally covered up the poisonous truths about the (un)Affordable Health Care Act.

1) That it kills the 40 hour work week and replaces it with 29 1/2 hours.

2) That it causes business to try to reduce employment to under 50 employees as a standard.

3) That it intentionally deprives myraids of their Health Insurance they used for decades in order to force them into a Socialized Healthcare Scheme (and the IAPB Death and Healthcare Deform Panels).

Just wait until the cries can no longer be suppressed; it will not be to long from now.

Points 1 and 2 were hidden in the law and MSM, as well as the American people, didn't even have a chance to find out what was in the bill before it was voted on. Blame the socialist democraps for this.

We have to peal back her skin to find out what's in it!

America will just have to fundimentally change into an Obamanation where everyone works 3 13.333 hour a week jobs instead of 1 40 hour a week job.

Oh, and let’s not forget that idiot from Michigan who was duped into believing they would take abortion out of the law.

Oh, the press knew. They knew it was about single-payer government controlled healthcare, they knew it was socialized medicine. And they knew this would be unpalatable to the American People so they suppressed the news in order to shill for their masters in the Progressive/Liberal circles in DC.

They knew.

We’re watching but not many others. No real news stories. It’s remaining quiet.

But Cruz’s plan isn’t to get everyone to listen - if they do that’s great - but he just needs republicans to listen. And his plan includes shining light on the fakes. And it’s working.

McConnell’s primary opponent is using this against McConnell. Enzi’s primary challenger is too - to the extent that Enzi went to the floor last night to support Cruz.

It’s working even though it may not defund. All is moving in the right direction. No, not yet.. but the momentum is most assuredly swinging away from big government and toward smaller gov’t with more freedom. Thanks to Cruz et al.

I can't wait for the Open Enrollment stories to spill out and can almost hear it now:

'But I thought I could KEEP MY INSURACE Policy, He PROMISED ME I COULD KEEP IT!!'

'I can't afford Health Insurance anymore, I thought this was SUPPOSED TO BE AFFORDABLE.'

'My employers Business went BELLY UP because of Obamacare, WHAT AM I TO DO NOW??'

You’re assuming the press WILL cover that. I’m sure Miley will twerk or something, or Justin Bieber will do or say something outrageous, or similar media trivia, so such coverage goes un-noticed. . .

The 65% who DO NOT want Obamacare are going to vote for Cruz for President when the voting will count. I haven’t been a Cruz-for-President fan, but watching him, it really is a brilliant political move.

This may be a dumb question but assuming, after “odumbocare” gets fully implemented, what will it take to remove it from being the law of the land? Simply, can it be completely abolished at some time in the not too distant future?

Yes, the MSM is silent because they fear the power of Cruz and his supporters. They are silent trying to suppress the information coming out in the filibustor to the American people. They know Obamacare is all bad news and the bad news story is being told to the American people on the floor of the Senate.
I sense there are a lot of Americans who turned on the television sets to see what was going on. Then they were caught up with the straight forward coherant discussion on the dangers of Obamacare. My sense is that this information dispensing exercise has reached and energized a huge number of Americans because the Cruz brigade is saying the things the American people have wanted to say for a long time to the arrogant, ear plugged, shove it down our throats traitors.

The Press is going to be FORCED to cover it because of two words - OPEN ENROLLMENT. The Giant in America is about to awaken and the Giant is not going to be happy.
