Obama’s Chickens We Tea Party folks tried to warn them. But the lemmings at the unions followed their leaders over the ObamaCare cliff and finally realize they are falling. When we said forcing Insurance Companies to cover pre-existing conditions would cost more, the mouth-breathing, knuckle dragging union Thugocracy pointed to some CBO numbers and said [...]

Even with the GOP landslide on Nov 2, the mood of the country is still one of skeptic and distrust. That was pretty evident this afternoon when a article in The Hill proclaimed that Rep. Cantor wanted to keep certain parts of the current Health Care Law. This, of course, went completely against what the [...]

As predicted, Obama received a boost in the polls after the Health Care bill passed. It was also predicted that it would be a short lived bump. Both predictions have come to pass. Gallup, Rasmussen and others show the downward slide has returned.
For Conservatives and Republicans, this entire ill advised episode has been like a bad hangover without the fun that causes it. For Democrats, the euphoria has ended and reality sets in. Reality of major screw-ups. Particularly on points they used to “sell” the bill. So it is painfully obvious to the people that supported the bill because of promises of immediate coverage for children with “pre-existing” conditions, lower costs, better insurance and a lower deficit were lied to. Or at best, misled by Democrats who didn’t know what was in the bill they were pushing so hard.

Health Bill Signed Into Law Yesterday Is Already Not Delivering On Promises
Bill Didn’t Ban Discrimination For Pre-Existing Conditions In Children Immediately As Promised
AP: “Obama Made Better Coverage For Children A Centerpiece Of His Health Care Remake, But It Turns Out The Letter Of The Law Provided A Less-Than-Complete Guarantee That Kids With Health Problems Would Not Be Shut Out Of Coverage.” (“Gap In Health Care Law’s Protection For Children,” AP, 3/23/10)

An interesting question. Now that Reconciliation seems to be the way Health Care related items are pushed through the US Senate, when the Republicans retake that body, it would only take 51 votes to prohibit wasting money on abortions.

When I was young, just got out of college, I had to buy auto insurance. I had a beat-up old car. And I won’t name the name of the insurance company, but there was a company — let’s call it Acme Insurance in Illinois. And I was paying my premiums every month. After about six months I got rear-ended and I called up Acme and said, I’d like to see if I can get my car repaired, and they laughed at me over the phone because really this was set up not to actually provide insurance; what it was set up was to meet the legal requirements. But it really wasn’t serious insurance.

We hear so much about Insurance Companies denying individuals due to pre-existing conditions. President Obama has spoken many times about ending denials for pre-existing conditions and forcing the current Insurance Company to accept responsibility for these conditions and resolve them.

In one of the funniest scenes in years by Al Franken, the Minnesota blight on the US Senate, Franken attacks Republican Senator John Thune, who demonstrated that the massive taxes kick in years before any significant benefits from the Senate Health Reform bill actually materialize.

What is a Socialist Liberal President to do? The Senate has bastardized the bill into an amalgamation of special interest pork and payoffs, yet still laughingly call it a “Health Reform” Bill. Every Senator on the left has received a “bribe” of one type or another, most having little or nothing to do with Health Care.

The reason Insurance Companies have pre-existing condition clauses is to avoid insuring people that find out they have a disease and then seek coverage, so someone else will pay for it. That someone is the others who happen to already be insured by the company.
