Not since the Ginsu knife cut through an aluminum can and still sliced a tomato has America seen a pitch quite like the one President Obama delivered in the Rose Garden on Monday.
“The product is good. The health insurance that’s being provided is good. It’s high quality, and it’s affordable,” the president announced. “People can save money — significant money — by getting insurance that’s being provided through these marketplaces.”
How much would you pay for a health plan like this? Before you answer, listen to this:
“No one who decides to purchase a plan has to pay their first premium until December 15th. And unlike the day after Thanksgiving sales for the latest PlayStation or flat-screen TVs, the insurance plans don’t run out.”
Wait! That’s not all.
“The Affordable Care Act is not just a Web site. It’s much more,” Obama said. “Billions of dollars have been saved by seniors already. That’s part of the law. It’s already in place. It’s happening right now.”
Now how much would you pay?
“Nearly six in 10 uninsured Americans will find that they can get coverage for less than $100 a month,” the president went on. “Through the marketplaces, you can get health insurance for what may be the equivalent of your cellphone bill. Or your cable bill. And that’s a good deal. . . . And that product is working. It’s really good.”

He came across like Shifty Louie, the used car salesman.
More Obull$hit.
John McAffee was interviewed today and said the govt approached him to head up the big fix on the Obamacare website software. He says it cannot be fixed it will have to be thrown out and a whole new design put together.
The correct terminology is:
“But wait,there’s more!”
On purpose.
But wait, nothing this shyster says is true. I would far rather trust the sham wow guy and his girlfriend who beat the hell out of each other!
Creepy
OBAMACARE REMINDS ME OF THOSE WIENER COOKERS THAT YOU WOULD STICK THE WEENIE ON A SPIKE AND ELECTROCUTE.
Dana Milbank has turned on B. Hussein Obamugabe?? Isn’t Dana normally a bootlicker for the Clown?!
“Nearly six in 10 uninsured Americans will find that they can get coverage for less than $100 a month,” the president went on.
That's interesting. When I went shopping, I found that the plan that provided the best balance of deductible for my situation would set me back $715/month. When I add co-pays, the total is considerably north of $1000/month. The lower-tier plans ended up with a "total cost of ownership" upwards of $1300/month.
My last experience with COBRA was $415/month, with co-pays bringing that up to just over $500/month.
Yes, there has been a huge jump in the co-pay rates, from $20 a visit to $50 a visit, for some services. For imaging, I was socked for $150.
“McAFEE: Well, here’s the problem — it’s not something software can solve. I mean, what idiot put this system out there and did not create a central depository? There should be one website, run by the government, you go to that website and then you can click on all of the agencies. This is insane. So, I will predict that the loss of income for the millions of Americans who are going to lose their identities — I mean, you can imagine some retired lady in Utah, who has $75,000 dollars in the bank, saving her whole life, having it wiped out one day because she signed up for Obamacare. And believe me, this is going to happen millions of times. This is a hacker’s wet dream. I cannot believe that they did this.”

That’s pretty amusing, thanks for posting this!
Is it true that #Julia was a web designer? If so, it’s the funniest thing I’ve heard in a long time.......
Medicare is $105 dollars a month, and my BC& BC is another $1200. What the hell is this fool talking about less than $100 dollars a month.
Nobody is stupid enough to believe that.
Obama and the DemonRATs have egg on their face:
Here is what John McAffe said to CNBC:
"I promise you this cannot be fixed without at least scrapping the front-end processing, which is more than half of the systems," he said. "Seriously, if it were me and I were running this and I had been asleep in a hospital for two years and woke up to this mess, I would say OK, throw it out and start over. But start over in the right way."
and,
"You know we have a number of high-technology companies here in America," he said. "You know Silicon Valley has nothing but such entities that are competent, efficient and certainly more experienced than the Canadian companies. And I'm not putting the Canadians down at all. I'm just saying that the technology tends to aggregate in certain parts of the world. And so it would seem very strange for an American government to seek outside help in developing a complex system. And yet that's what they did. I don't know why, but it's bizarre."
more:
"If you Google CGI [CGI Federal is the American subsidiary of CGI Group, a Canadian company], you'll find that they were in serious trouble with the Canadian government with health-care systems that were not delivered on time and were nonfunctional. So you would have thought that someone would have looked at that past history and said, 'I don't think that we can go with them.' I mean, I wouldn't have chosen them."
