Democrat Pallone on Millions of Cancelled Health Care Plans: “It’s Capitalism” (Video)
Gateway Pundit ^ | October 31,2013 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 10/31/2013 4:50:31 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Rep. Frank Pallone (D-NJ) was on The Kelly File with Megyn Kelly tonight to spin for the administration. Pallone tried to convince Megyn that it was not due to Obamacare that millions of Americans were losing their health care plans. Pallone called it — “capitalism.” Unbelievable.

Rep. Frank Pallone: The bottom line is if you’re selling a lousy policy with a price that’s too high nobody’s going to buy it. So they’re cancelling these policies because they know people won’t buy them.

Megyn Kelly: But they were buying them. They were buying them. 15 million people who bought them and said “I like them”, Mr. Pallone.

Pallone: They’re not going to buy them anymore when they have a better alternative.

Kelly: Thanks to you!… Why do you get to decide what’s lousy?

Pallone: It’s capitalism.

Kelly destroyed Pallone during this exchange.

If Pallone is the best that NJ can send to represent them, that is a dirty shame. That interview made him appear to be mentally challenged.

Pallone is a disgrace to Italians, New Jersey and the office he represents. He is as they say in Italian a ‘cafone’, pardon the spelling and slang

I’m at the point where I’ve decided talking to these people is not the solution anymore.

It’s capitalism to force people to pay more for an inferior plan to these Marxists.

Pray America is waking up

When you live in a fantasy world with so many special onterests groups throwing money at you for your influence and you can practically make your mattress out of Franklins you probably have little understanding of how the peasants live nor do you care what they go through.

This guy knows his ignoranct voters. He looked drunk during the interview and I am surprised Megyn could keep her cool trying to interact with him. He was that idiotic.

RE :”Democrat Pallone on Millions of Cancelled Health Care Plans: “It’s Capitalism” (Video)”

That was the best Megyn Kelly segment of he last nights Kelly File show, a dont miss.

MSNBC's Lib Hero (House member NJ) Pellone told her the brazen lie that insurance companies are canceling those policies ‘on their own’ because they know all those millions of customers who got cancelled don't want those crappy policies anymore since the ones at the exchanges are so much better, that Obamacare lets them sell anything they want.

Watch Megyn cream him on it. At the end she says "I really tried. It's so much better when you can have a real exchange on the actual issues"

He's and embarrassment -- he was "my" congresscritter until we were gerrymandered back into a Republican district following the 2010 Census.

I thank my lucky stars that the Republicans managed to win a New Jersey gerrymander for once.

Pallone's district (NJ 6).

They truly believe that you’re more “free” when someone else makes the hard decisions for you.

Waxman said yesterday that people making their own decisions about health insurance is “abuse”.

The private sector can’t compete with those who have the power to regulate.

Hmmmmmm.....looks like Ohaha is running classes on “How To Be A WH Patsy” (cackle). Laughing, grinning jack-ass Austin Goolsby did the Pallone “I’M-A-WH-PATSY” act on Hannity. Expect more of same.

==============================================

THE HILL: "What many Democrats failed to anticipate is that healthcare plans tend to change over time as insurance companies tweak them in ways that are not always......plans lawmakers thought would be exempted from Ocare's stringent requirements under the grandfather clause, no longer comply with the law."

======================================================

The stupidest pol ever ----sap-happy Frank Pallone (Dem-NJ)----grinning like a braindead fool---- telling Megyn Kelly "it's the insurance industry's fault for cancelling polices." Even as savvy Megyn tried to tell him Obama forced them to cancel b/c the policies did not meet O/Care's stupid mandates.

The power to regulate inherently involves being backed up by the legal use of deadly force to enforce those regulations.

No one in the private sector has that power.

Libs will vehemently deny this about gov’t, because they don’t want it attached to them that they have to use force to get their way.

Certainly not without buying a politician.

I’m still trying to figure out if Pallone is gay. And yes, he is the best NJ can do! Coming to the Senate: Cory Booker!

Or a grinning jack-ass telling ludicrous lies getting caught and he keeps on repeating them anyway, thats what makes him a hero at MSNBC w libs.

The classic moment is when Kelly cuts him off to play the tape of HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius admitting to congress that if the companies need to raise the premiums by even $5 Obamacare cancels the policy (forces companies to by law) and throws them into Obamacare.

But that did't stop him. NJ Dems in his district should be ashamed by him.

And again, if there was nothing to “buy”, there’d be no buyers.
