The “AFFORDABLE” Care Act. The Democrat party is THE PARTY OF DECEPTION AND LIES. They LIE. They always LIE. “YOU LIE” said Joe Wilson and he was right.

Gotta pay for those pre existing conditions!

Anyone should’ve seen that premiums could only skyrocket when you have to include those in the insured pool

Idiots

Anyone ever hear of HR1624???? Its been completely ignored in the media and was passed in House and Senate, and awaits Barry’s signature Monday. Funny how this hasn’t been reported on. Election year politics?

You can enter HR1624 in Bing and you’ll get a copy of the actual bill.

And here I thought Dear Leader was telling the truth when he said that families would see their premiums DROP by $2500 annually. Gosh, you mean Obama lied? (Surprise, Surprise!!!)

Must be nice to have a government enforced customer base. Crony capitalism at it’s best.
