“If we vote “Yes” on Prop C (which is what we should vote if we’re agains’t Obama Care [worked the phones from RNC on Saturday]), does that mean that all federal funding for the state Medicaid Program is cut off? Anybody know?”

I don’t know for sure, but I SERIOSULY doubt it.

It a precious federal entitlement program were being threatened, the usual suspects would be out in force screaming BloodyMurderJudgmentalHateChildrenDivisiveRacismCrisis.

See, that's what the person who asked me about it was concerned about. He's so against Obamacare, but he's afraid the federal funding would be cut off and he thinks Missouri can't afford to offer Medicaid assistance without it. Of course, those on Medicaid would be screaming, but they would be screaming at those who voted against Obamacare for causing them to lose the federal funding and, in essence, their assistance entirely due to no money in the till in Jefferson City. I honestly couldn't answer the question, but thought I'd heard the White House and Congress are playing hardball. They're saying, “Fine, go ahead and vote against it and see how you like going it without federal funding of Medicaid.” I couldn't honestly answer, so I do my usual when I realize I'm out of my league — I shut up and sit down and find someone who isn't.
