Obama Invokes Daughters As He Talks Up 'Free Checkups, Flu Shots, Contraceptive Care' September 26, 2013 - 11:53 AM By Susan Jones
(CNSNews.com) - Repeating his new talking point about the Affordable care act, President Obama mentioned his own daughters on Thursday as he made the point that the new health care law offers free preventive care, including contraception.
"Let's say -- let's say you're a young woman -- I'm interested in this because I've got two daughters, right? Let's say you just turned 26. Let's say you can't stay on your parents' plan anymore. If you buy health care through the marketplace, your plan has to cover free checkups, flu shots, contraceptive care -- so you might end up getting more health care each month than you're paying for the premiums," Obama said.
As CNSNews.com reported, the president said something similar on Tuesday at the annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative in New York:
"And because all the insurers who participate are required to, for example, provide free preventive care, free contraceptive care, that young woman, she may make up what she’s spending on premiums just on her monthly use of health care,” said Obama.
On Thursday in Maryland, Obama said, "Knowing you can offer your family the security of health care -- that's priceless. Now you can do it for the cost of your cable bill -- probabaly less than your cell phone bill. Think about that -- good health insurance for hte price of your cell phone bill -- or less." The remark drew applause.

Sidwell Friends for me, DC public schools for thee!
Is it really free if it costs several thousand dollars?
Ain't nothing so expensive as 'free'...
Ah yes, when all else fails. . . trot out your props, I mean daughters. . .
Is he talking up major surgery or cancer treatment? That’s what people want covered. That’s why they want choices.
But then, rules don't apply to Democrats.
Let’s say, obummer is an idiot.
You can bet your ass on one thing. you will never get more health care than you are paying through the nose for.
Obama is just using his daughters in his lie.
What an obungohole. If you’re 26 what you really want is a J-O-B with your own healthcare.
I really get the vibe that young folks today are happy to live the “Life of Julia”, watch reality tv, trade pics of their “junk” on smartphones, and have lost the unique American drive to be successful.
It’s every bit as bad as Scott Brown putting his daughter up for bids in some sort of marriage auction.
I wouldn’t paint the millenials with the same brush. Only the progressive ones. There are millions of kids who were raised right by people like us.
I wouldn’t say it’s pervasive.
Just far more common than it once was.
Maybe they want to follow Obama’s mamma into the porn world.
STDs ?
That is how far the discussion has sunk. Taking a birth control pill is now considered a "monthly use of health care".
Apparently, he doesn’t know that a year’s supply of birth control is only $50 at wal-mart, while the cheapest crappy health plan in the exchanges is like three times that much each month.
But yes, like most liberals, Obama assumes that if you don’t write a check, whatever you are getting is “free”.
He probably thinks McDonalds gives him free straws with his drinks.
The comments are red flags in our business
I can see how they would be
They are to me as a normal healthy adult concerned for the safety and welfare of our children
He is ill bred
“so you might end up getting more health care each month than you’re paying for the premiums,” Obama said.”
The left’s ignorance is astounding!
