President Obama has enrolled in the federal health-care insurance exchanges, selecting a bronze-tiered insurance plan on the D.C. marketplace, the White House announced Monday.

In advance of Monday

Simply fodder for the LIV.

So if this act is symbolic? What is the symbolism?

[Libloather]

Obama’s premium will be less than $400 a month, but it only covers himself, not his wife, Michelle, nor their daughters, Malia and Sasha, according to a White House official.

Although Obama was involved in selecting a plan, he didn’t sign up himself. The president’s staff did that for him, going in person to the D.C. exchange over the weekend, the White House official said.

Someone else signed up Hussein while he was on the golf course. What happens to that person if they screwed up? Can that person sign up anyone else?

This isn’t symbolic it’s a damned joke. A farce.

This SOB will never make a payment on the joke policy.

Obama spreads more sh*t than a commercial manure spreader.

He really believes everyone else in the world is a moron, and in some case of Democrats he is right.

[Lazamataz]

LOL! Rigggght. HE SELECTED THE BRONZE PLAN.

What a crock. Man, most of America is just shaking their head. To make it at least 5% believable, he should have gone with the topmost plan. By "selecting" the worst plan, he's gone into negative numbers. NEGATIVE 5% believable.

I used to think at least he was good at LYING. He's not even good at THAT.

More brainwashing of the illiterate American voting public. Can anyone imagine Bam calling up to get a Dr’s. appointment, or sitting in a waiting room, or learning his Dr. no longer can treat him? Typical WAPO bull spit story.

Maybe his "Bronze" plan gets him free Tanning solution ??

"So did Obama commit fraud by signing up for a policy when he already has coverage via his employer?"

Lied about his income, smoking, drug use........

“As you’d expect, the president’s personal information is not readily available in the variety of government databases HealthCare.gov uses to verify identities.”

Well, if 'Healthcare.gov' can verify the identity of this phony it must be the most amazing software ever known to mankind.

The only thing more vile and repulsive than the WH’s cheap street theater is their commplete lack of shame over it.

[Texas Songwriter]

This Mother-Fletcher waits until the last minute to sign up. Even as he signs we all know this is theater. He really does think we are lunatics. What a putz.

[molson209]

as Barack or Barry ?

[inpajamas]

If he really signed up wouldn’t he still be online?

This is a feint. He will never use the plan. Never.

[sheana]

A lot cheaper than the plans available in
California too.

[Hoodat]

. . . in what a White House official described as a “symbolic” act . . .

In other words, there is no substance behind it.

[xkaydet65]

Except for matewrinity care and birth control a bronze plan is hardly better than no plan at all. This Barky is personally so cheap with his dime that he squeaks when he walks/

[Vaduz]

It’s just a PR stunt nothing real about it.

[Hoodat]

Walter Reed Army and Bethesda Naval are not included in the DC exchange network.

[Mouton]

What social security number did he use???????
