So anywhere the Feds go, trouble followed. Great endorsement and how about those great increases in costs?

Truth from ABC?

Bwahahahahahaha.

There is not a measurable IQ in the whole pile of worms.

My gawd, man, they’re ‘reporters’.

“Myth: Obamacare is leading to part-time jobs “

Looks like the ABCNews readers aren’t buying this propaganda piece from the comments below.

In WV most of the people signed up for Obamacare through an agency went into Medicaid

All that tells me is that individual states which opted to build an exchange did a far better job of it than the Feds.

Which is yet another argument in favor of Federalism and NOT having a huge, overarching, all-powerful central government.

They need to be held to account for these statements:

“If you like your plan, you can keep your plan. Period.”
“If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. Period.”
“Average savings will be $2500 per year.”
“...cost less than your cell phone bill.”

the problems have been largely confined to the 34 state marketplaces that the federal government runs.

Yeah, confined to only 68% of the states. (Or did I make a math error? What's 34 divided by 57?) And that's all of the ones the feds are running.

The word confined is normally used to denote a small population of a much larger population, as in: "The meningitis outbreak was confined to only 6 people out of the 7 million living in New York." One would not say: "The deaths due to the bubonic plague were confined to 75 million of the 100 million people in western Europe."

As we go forward the propaganda machine is all that matters.

Truth is what they say it is.

We are going to hear a lot more about the “millions of happy 0bamacare enrollees”. (don’t you want to join them?)

They are going to showcase both the sad stories of the new hope as a result of 0bamacare, as well as, the young healthy enrollee that wants to “do their part” for the greater good.

We are going to see a massive ad campaign featuring celebrities from film, television, music and sports.

I imagine their ad campaign was only delayed because of the website problems, but it is coming.

Between August and September the economy has added 691,000 full-time jobs, while it has lost 594,000 part-time jobs, according to the September jobs report. While this is only one month's worth of data, it indicates that at least so far, the law hasn't pushed full-time employees into part-time work.

Does the rport track people dropping from fuill-time to part-time?

“Myth: People are having difficulty signing up for health care everywhere. “

People using the exchanges, including those who had private health insurance previously but were dropped due to the ACA, are having difficulty.

“Myth: The website’s’ biggest problem is the number of people seeking insurance. “

As noted, the website collapsed under the weight of only two thousand users.

Most of the “sign ups” documented so far are people moving from state-run Medicare programs to the federal one, not what is implied.

“Myth: Obamacare is leading to part-time jobs “

This effect has been obvious for most of the last year, accelerating over the summer. The article used only some very dubious numbers for September only.

“Myth: Employers aren’t changing the insurance they offer because of Obamacare. “

Millions have had their employer-provided plans dropped. Many more have had coverage/plans for their family dropped. Most have had their plans severely limited with available plans reduced or modified beyond recognition.

A major jump in price increases and plan attrition from the ACA have been occurring since 2010.

Myth: the media is biased for liberal Democrats.

Fact: if you racist, sexist, homophobic Tea Baggers were smarter, you’d realize this isn’t true.

Sounds more like a summation of the defense. Folks of the jury just look at those puppy eyes-—how could a set of teeth like that actually have stolen your bone?

Sober up ABBY!

Only “hundreds” have been able to sign up for a health care plan at the Obamacare websites. The Wall Street Journal reported:

Okay now we will try the landline # 1-800-318-2596 listed above or 1-800-318-2596 = 1-800-FAU-CKYO.

Inspite of the Daily ObozoScamScare Trainwrecks, the ObozoScamScare Outhouse Band continues to play on:
