Ms. Meinwald, I rejoice at the outcome of your rotten ideology. May you pay the Blasio Misery tax next. May you have to sleep under the mountain of plastic trash bags that will soon be accumulating at your front door! May more wisdom come your way!

“I couldn’t sleep because of it,” said Barbara Meinwald, a solo practitioner lawyer in Manhattan.

Wait until she finds out that "insomnia" is not covered under Obamacare.

I read the article but now I have to scrub my eyeballs with a Brillo pad to get the New York Slimes byline off my cornea.

The money quote: I'm for it. But what's the reality of it?

Liberals never let reality get in the way of their pie in the sky. They don't learn, either. She's still FOR IT!

Another gem: We have to explain that this is the Affordable Care Act; that’s what was put into law. Once they understand, they’re less emotional, but they’re not happy with it.

So they're emotional about it if their evil firm or greedy insurance company did this to them - but if Obama did it, well, they're just not as worked up about it.

Don’t you love it that she’s a lawyer, too? This is a double Schadenfreude.

It is an uncomfortable position for many members of the creative classes to be in. “We are the Obama people,…
Might as well add, "We are the stupid people."

No problem, NY Dems. You voted for B DeBlasio for mayor and he will stop this obvious capitalist imperialist abuse! Obama is working day and night to provide rainbows for us all. As we speak, Obama and DeBlasio are on the phone to whatshisname in No Korea asking him to take the position as new director of health care services in NYC. After that call, Obama will be on the phone to France’s prime minister asking if he will take over management of NYC’s health care finances. Everything will be rainbows in no time. That’s exactly what NYC Dems would do! /sarc

Yes, when you actually bite into the crap sandwich of Liberalism vs. just seeing it on TV, it sucks.

Same thing happens to most of the juveniles you see in "Beyond Scared Straight". It's not bad enough that the place smells and the prison population is dangerous as can be. When they get a taste of prison food, that appears to have more of an impact on these kids.

As mentioned in another thread, if the states start to simply refuse implementation, and of course the Rat states MUST implement, it’s a double whammy for the Rat states since the needed “redistributed” funding is significantly reduced from the masses while the government above forces intolerable regulations. Love it! The ultimate squeeze!

"Shameful, and unforgivable acts by every Democrat who first voted for the Trojan Horse for redistribution called ACA, and then voted again to defeat the Republican measure which warned of and would have prevented these cancellations! Not one of the Dems should escape personal blame for each patient whose life is being negatively impacted. "

And that includes the media - they should be tarred and feathered.

Ms. Meinwald, the lawyer, said she was a lifelong Democrat who still supported better health care for all, but had she known what was in store for her, she would have voted for Mitt Romney.

Obamacare is somewhat like death; you have to pass it to see what is in it.

Actually, there is truth to that. I know someone on Medicaid who could benefit from a sleep study. Her MD told her it is not covered under zer0care.

So “many members of the creative classes . . . We are the Obama people,” said Camille Sweeney, a New York writer. Well la-te-da! You are the “creative class” huh? And you are all Obama people to boot. Enjoy your discomfort, self-inflicted if I may say. You and your ilk forced this irrational, national mess on all of us, you slime bucket elites from the vaunted coastal areas! We (the rest of America) will remember you with eternal fondness, pity and hatred.
