Obama takes veiled shot at Ted Cruz, presses Texas to expand Medicaid

When I was 26 I had two kids and a wife to support, I certainly wasn’t on my parents health insurance.

Why doesn’t Obama just raise the age to 37 or 48.

If Texas increases Medicaid the people of Texas will have to be taxed to pay for that Medicaid. The Governor knows what he is doing.

[KittenClaws]

The POS-in-Chief can not MAKE Texas expand Medicaid. I bet that just chaps his a$$.

[GeronL]

See the boot heel close up Obama

[woweeitsme]

I truly wish someone had the balls to just come out and call this POS a liar. Not only a liar, but a damned liar.

Texas already has 3.7 million on Medicaid.
How freakin’ big does Baraq want it to be?

[Jane Long]

Wait until the federal money runs out for the states that expanded Medicaid. They will all be left paying for a program that will take many of the states the way of Detroit.

Exactly right! Perry knows this. He needs to mention this every time he puts his boot up 0's azz.

Barry takes swipe at Ted Cruz, huh? Betcha Barry didn't get an 8 minute standing ovation from his 150 peeps.

[KittenClaws]

Obama wants it big enough to impoverish the taxpaying citizens of Texas. The POS-in-chief would love to see Texas in financial ruin.

Everything is bigger in Texas, except Fools - those are all in DC.

And how depressing that he appeared at a synagogue (or as the Caliph terms it “Jewish place of worship”.

When I was 26, I was a college graduate, married with 2 kids and another on the way, owned my own home and had considered myself to be an adult for quite awhile.

That didn’t bother me at all. Most Jewish People in the USA are Democrats. Although I can’t imagine why.

Because of the law, children up to the age of 26 already can stay on their parents insurance plans, he said, and “families aren't going to go bankrupt just because someone in their family got sick.”

That all depends on the size of their bank account and the size of their deductible.

The difference is most of the people trying to find a parking space are being ordered to buy the product and being told that’s the only place they can park.

Rot in Hell Obama!

Almost the same here. At 26 we had a house, good jobs and bank accounts. Well on the way and had been for 5 years.
The kids started coming at 28. All grown now and not dependent on us financially at all. :)

[1010RD]

Shouldn’t Obama be busy getting his signature bill to work as promised, before making more promises?

[duffee]

Single payer medicaid for all, except the elite.

When I was 26 I had been paying bills and helping to pay a mortgage for 3 years. I was no child.

I owned HALF a house before I could legally drink...

A year later I owned the rest of the house...

If they consider a Child to be 26 years old, then maybe “Children” shouldn’t be allowed to vote...

[First Catamite quoted] “It’s a good deal for the state of Texas … The only reason we’re not doing it is ideology," he said.
