White House 'sorry' for woman held up as ACA success ("Free" wasn't so free)

The White House is "as sorry as we can be" that a Washington state woman held up as an example of the success of the Affordable Care Act marketplaces appears to be falling through the cracks, press secretary Jay Carney said Tuesday.

In mid-October, President Obama cited single mother Jessica Sanford as an exchange success story after she wrote to him after being able to sign up for insurance in early October. She's since learned that her state's system miscalculated her tax credit and that her out-of-pocket costs will be substantially higher than expected.

When she finally does get signed up for ObamaCare, she automatically gets put to the head of the line for a death panel to “cut costs”.

On the bright side, she got every bit she deserves for voting for the incompetent jug eared smirking Muslim puke.

Even weirder-—I heard the dumbass chick being interviewed and in spite of the double screwover she doesn’t blame the Kenyan at all. Now she blames the state. Pretty much like the old starving Russians who just couldn’t believe it was Stalin starving them. Absolutely fascinating. How hard do you have to hit these dim/kenyan lovers behind the knees before the light comes on? Most of them will hold the nails while their coffin lid is being nailed shut.

Carney said that the White House “certainly as sorry as we can be that Jessica can’t afford it” but that the law is still doing plenty of good. He also noted that Sanford still says she supports the Affordable Care Act and the president.

If she still supports this she’s an idiot and is getting what she deserves.

Eva, the 7,000 was a subset and they are all corrected now. There are good enrollments back to Oct 1. Here is the latest status report in .pdf form:

Affordable Care Act is what they call it now...

When they find out what they will be getting for their money, they will be calling it ZEROCARE.

This woman can’t possibly be the only person who signed up based on false information. How many others are there?

Wonder if she’ll be “disappeared” now that she’s a potential problem for her dear leader.

“Just take the little pill, my dear. You won’t feel a thing. It’s all for the Greater Good...”

Can’t get much more chilling than that, especially since it’ll be reality come January.

“She’s since learned that her state’s system miscalculated her tax credit and that her out-of-pocket costs will be substantially higher than expected.”

Still a little ignorant on the 3000+page law here, but our cost of health insurance is based on how much tax we pay???
