Obama asks followers to peddle Obamacare during holidays
Washington Examiner ^ | 11/19/2013 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 11/19/2013 7:18:09 AM PST by theruleshavechanged

"As we go into this holiday season, we have to remember the conversations that we've got around the dinner table, when we're talking to co-workers at a Christmas party, when we're out there in our communities, our churches, our synagogues, all our places of worship, now is the time to remind people that look, we've got to make sure that everybody takes advantage of the opportunity to get affordable care for the first time," Obama said.

The answer to this is

“You are STILL acting as if it means free medical care on demand. When you didn’t know better, it was excusable. Now it’s not.”

“What are YOU going to do with the extra $2500 you’re saving from Obamacare?”

RE :” Obama asks followers to peddle Obamacare during holidays,”

Let me try this, say to a young nephew :

You have to sign up to get insured. Its not the presidents fault you lost your insurance its the companies fault for selling you that junk policy that you like. You new one will be well worth it even though its twice as expensive and the deductibles double.
If you get in an accident you could be bankrupted with medical bills, even though you have no savings or assets and you are in debt with student loans and you make too much to get a tax credit.
Plus its wrong to be free rider. We cant make this a better country if we don't all play by the rules. ACA is the law of the land approved by the SCOTUS. Respect the law.”

Convincing?

OMG this is just sick! Obama says “Make sure you promote me and my legacy communist care around your family holiday table!!”

Seriously intrusive and not at all cute!

Lucky for me, I have zero family members who even have a slight bit of liberalism in them. One coworker is a big time gay lib, but he keeps his political views to himself.

If your innocent nephew thoughtfully asks you: "We have tax-paid Medicaid for those that can’t afford health insurance. Why did we need Obamacare?"

YOUR REASONED FACT-BASED ANSWER IS: "B/c, my son, Obama eliminated the ASSET TEST, which would have prevented those with assets to even be considered for Medicaid coverage."

===========================================

REFERENCE Obamba can't get 'em to sign up on the healthcare.guv website---so he's throwing some 400,000 onto MEDICAID------and all the costs of medical care will be charged back.

How? By federal and state LIENS against homes, and other assets.

The Obamacare brain trust thoughtfully eliminated the ASSET TEST, which would have prevented those with assets to even be considered for Medicaid coverage.

So those who now think, "Golly gee, Obama says I qualify for subsidized Medicaid care, I'll be taken care of, b/c my government loves me"---have been suckered into a REVERSE ASSET LIQUIDATION FEDERAL MONEY GRAB.

The thread Laz started earlier today has some interesting perspectives.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3092799/posts

It is now obvious that those riding this train wreck know that 1 December will be a nasty day for them.

The shift in marketing “models” is not something that I would have thought about, but it is crystal clear from the postings on that thread that there will be only more chaos.

It will be a hell of a holiday.
My DD will be an avid participant in any Obamacare discussions. Her monthly payments have doubled and her deductible has more than doubled. She is a wife, good mother, works hard in a responsible but low paid position, and was very happy with her old insurance. She is sweet, 6'4”, 200+ lbs, an ex Obama supporter, and getting louder and meaner as the Obamacare healthcare fiasco continues.
Only the Moderate Republicans will be able to bail the Liberal Democrats out of this mess.

These are not HIS holidays. Bet he wouldn’t be proposing this during Rama-lama-ding-dong.

No X’mas here, I’m Jewish.

HOWEVER, at the Thanksgiving table (which is in MY house this year), if any of the few libtards make mention of O’Liar and his disasterous takeover of the healthcare and health insurance industry, they’re going to get a belly full.

As I told my wife, “This isn’t a PC household, and I will say whatever I want to in my own house. Someone doesn’t like it, they’re invited to Mickey D’s for dinner. Eff’em!”

I'm the lone conservative in a sea of liberal Democrats. Talking politics at family dinners is a good way to get my head bashed in.

However, I do know that my brother and sister-in-law, who are hosting Thanksgiving dinner, are not happy that she will be losing her employee coverage. So maybe an “I told you so” would be fun.

I got into an argument with my older sister at Thanksgiving years ago when she said she voted for Clinton/gore because she thought gore was the better looking VP candidate.

I told her she should have her voting privileges revoked. We didn’t speak for almost a full year. She was working for the San Antonio paper at the time.

I have had so many arguments with my Father I can't count them.

Right now I don't even want to be around him.

As you’re wishing folks a “Gay Kwanzaa”, be sure to include “want Obamacare with that?”
