17 million fewer uninsured -- in a month? [Yet Another Hussein Obama Lie]

Great catch by Don Stewart/Josh Holmes in Mitch McConnell's office:

Obama's speech tonight: "There are now more than thirty million American citizens who cannot get coverage.”

Obama presser, Guadalajara, Mexico, 8/10/09: “We've got 46-47 million people without health insurance in our country

Hussein Obama has to be the most effective president ever. By merely talking about healthcare reform over the past month, he managed to reduce the number of "uninsured" from 47 to 30 million.

Hey, that speech had a number in it.

Numbers are not friends of liberals. Which is why they manage to remain liberals.

People vs. citizens. He knows he's going to have to sneak coverage of illegals through the back door. Maybe just make it illegal to check on citizenship status for any medical treatment.

[spectre]

He's speaking to Nurses at the White House right now.

He just said "Most Americans DO HAVE INSURANCE"!

Wow.

[cc2k]

Actually, that’s part of the problem. In just one month, 17 Million people who had no insurance died because they couldn’t get healthcare.

</sarcasm>

And Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.

“There are now more than thirty million American citizens who cannot get coverage.”

Gotta watch that lawyerspeak— 47 million is ‘MORE THAN’
30 million—

“The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous; in consequence of the facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on the slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.”

Perpetually repetition of the same simple, albeit erroneous and abjectly spurious statements, will work for Liberals with a voter base already intellectually handicapped and morally stunted by decades of public education.

Cool, then by the end of October the whole deal will be moot.

[TomGuy]

He throws numbers around without regard for their accuracy.

Just like he claims the plan will be deficit neutral.

Even the most conservative estimates show that the plan will cost nearly $1 Trillion. That figure may be off by a few $Billion.

A $billion here, a $billion there — it’s close enough for government work.

He is going to fine premium insurance holders. What makes him think they aren’t going to drop coverage?

He throws stuff against the wall to see what will stick. And it still stinks.

[vaudine]

All we have to do is wait a couple more months and all will be insured, if 1 month brought it down to only 30 mil.

obama’s mexico healthcare idea is sinking fast.

[ml/nj]

He didn't change the number. He just omitted the 17 million illegals.

Those 17 million “uninsured” he eliminated (er, killed) (er, “removed from the 47 million uninsured” list) are the illegals - who nobody has ever been able to count anyway.

AND these are the illegals whose “huddled masses” increase Democrat Representatives in “safe” gerrymandered districts by 12 - 15.

[jiggyboy]

I read this as there are 17M “without” (earlier quote) who can (implied by later quote) afford it. Very easy to believe both.

[Salvation]

for later

[freespirited]

I thought he was referring to the millions of people who are eligible for Medicaid and SCHIP but havent gotten off their butts to enroll.
