So, if you make less that $40,000 a year and find the high cost of Obamacare to be overwhelming, President Obama has a message for you: cancel your stupid cable TV and you iPhone service you ingrates. Then you will be able to afford my mandated-by-law take over of our national healthcare system.

This is what Obama told a Latino audience at a townhall held this week on several Spanish language media networks.

Obama was presented with a question about a family that makes $36,000 a year and found that the cheapest Obamacare plan they could find would cost them $315 a month. This, the family felt, was too expensive and something they could not afford.

Dang, you got a sense of humour...

In the old days, there were the three networks, PBS/NPR, the major newspapers and news weeklies, all left-wing. Now we at least have us, the Blaze, Daily Caller, Hot Air, Drudge, talk radio, parts of Fox News, the assorted other conservative blogs, and etc. Is it even? Not even close. But it’s better.

Just imagine a Republican saying “You don’t need food stamps; just cancel your cable tv and cell phone”. The poor guy would get pummeled.

Did they forget all about the $2500 savings in healthcare premiums that Barrez Obamero promised them low intelligence voters? They could have premium cable service for a year plus a flat screen TV for that amount. Pay up suckaz.

I called my cable company today, thinking of changing to UVerse. They added movie channels, faster internet and lowered the bill by $40. Wonder if the cable companies are trying to stay ahead of stuff like that.

Is it humanly possible to wrap your head around what would happen if any Republican said or did anything remotely similar what Obama, Biden, Pelosi, Reid, Johnson or S.J. Lee or most any other Democrat routinely spew?

It is truly 'Twilight Zone' or 'ranting from the insane asylums' material and the media ignores it.

I CANNOT believe that Obama said something so UNBELIEVABLY stupid to a LATINO Town Hall ...

I can hear them muttering under their breaths:

“He wants ME to give up cable with all of the Spanish language stations? He wants me to give up the Soccer Channel? He expects me to go back to Over-The-Air TV?”

And:

“He wants me to give up my cell phone - I have no landline. My kids go to inner-city schools - they need the phones for emergencies. PLUS, he wants me to tell MY 17 year old daughter that there’s no more cell phone, no more texting?”

“cancel your stupid cable TV and you iPhone service “

Gee, that’s funny Mr. President. I thought you said the average family would SAVE $2,500 each year?

After lying to the American people over and over again, why should we listen to anything that you say?

So the Obamaphones he pushes in exchange for votes are the answer for those who have to cancel (so now they swell the ranks of obamaphone/voters) or it it that he thinks many of his voters (Obamaphone owner) would be unaffected by this.
I do wish someone would track down that woman who swooned when he was first elected - she was video taped raving that she wouldn’t have to pay her bills anymore. She was ecstatic -like she’d won the lottery. How does that lottery winner feel now about giving up TV and phone service? Swooning that all her dreams have come true or???

Uh, $315 a month is too expensive for a Family Policy? Wow, my Wife an I pay $1,600 a Month for Medical, Dental and Vision Coverage. That’s with my former Employer’s Retirement Plan.

New plan, hide my Income, play the Victim Card and apply for CaliforniaCommieCare next December.

Time to make Doctors, Nurses and any other Healthcare Professional’s Slaves so Healthcare will truly be free.

Uh, my Net 10 service is $40 a month and my cable and internet $70. That doesn’t come close to the $315/month premiums mentioned by the $36k guy in the video. And what about deductibles, oh Liar-in-Chief?

O'bummer would tell you: "Well, you need to get rid of your car and take public transportation - that's what we're planning on for you all anyway. And, like Carter said back in the 70's. get cheaper cuts of meat - and no more eating out."

you say: “We all know how a ‘complicated subject’ is very liable to be ‘botched up’ when said in one language and translated into another.”

There was no problem in the language - just the brain.

Sorry, I wasn’t suggesting that HE was misquoted or taken out of context.

I was thinking how idiotic twisted statements translate to the people he was trying to reach....

Didn’t we have a President that was trying to be ‘cute’ and say something in German and ended up saying he was a bear or ice cream cone or something?
Not sure but think it may have been JFK trying to say he was a ‘Berliner’.

Hate to say it BUT if you ever see me ‘praise’ this idiot (only if he steps down today) you can figure I started drinking again...HA...

Like they say, this fool could be observed on the White House lawn screwing a goat and it may bring a ‘ho-hum’ from the crowd...

No, the slavish media would report that "Our handsome and caring president was concerned about the goats health and stepped up to relieve the goats sexual tension."
