Bill Clinton calls Obamacare a ‘crazy system’ that ‘doesn’t make any sense’
Daily Caller article repost on American Thinker ^ | October 4, 2016 | Daily Caller article reposted by Thomas Lifson

Bill Clinton understands the public is fed up with the skyrocketing costs, stratospheric deductibles, and vanishing insurance providers of Obamacare, and he wants to save Hillary from going down with the ship. So President Obama’s signature legislative accomplishment gets thrown under the bus....

"Former President Bill Clinton attacked President Barack Obama’s signature health care legislation Monday, calling it a “crazy system” that “doesn’t make any sense” during a Michigan campaign event for Hillary...."

Bill Clinton exposes the grotesque reality of Obamacare failure!!

Rare Democrat moments of candor, Bill just can't help himself.

Of course, for the political left the answer is always Single-Payer, which is what Obozocare was always intended to lead toward......

Trump and Pence need to seize upon this opportunity to exploit tensions between Clintons and Obama, force Shrillary to take responsibility for Obozocare or else disavow it, etc.

This is huge, and a great opportunity for Trump and Pence!

Bill Clinton has trashed Obozocare while on the campaign trail. They just can’t control Bill’s mouth when he gets going....

Let the infighting begin within the Democrat Party. Love it.

It’ll be tough for Hillary to disavow Obamacare. After all, she was the one who was trying to sell the idea to the voters long before Obama came along.

So blame the Democrat Party, Pelosi and Reid, Bill. They passed this monstrosity with NO Republican votes.

Republicans cannot be tagged for this ‘crazy system’ since they did not vote for it, but Bill may tag them anyway for not changing it. There has to be some way to blame the Repubs. Of course, we can blame the Repubs for allowing it to continue. There have been efforts, but branch number 3 (Judicial with good old Judge Roberts) stopped that also. That kind of reminds us Comey and the FBI doesn’t it???

I think the anticipated talk is how to fix it. But there’s virtually no way left to say you want everyone covered, but it has to cost less, unless you did a Medicare-like system for the nation and everyone....then admitted that with marginal profit...hospitals aren’t interested in running a four-star operation in every single community. You’d rapidly downsize full scale healthcare to just clinics in most counties of the US and hospitals would only exist in towns of 100,000 or more.

Reality has come to just about everyone because they know the repair or solution....will just make localized care impossible to get.

BarkyCare was a product of RomneyCare and HillaryCare which birthed BarkyCare...so BillyJeff, your wife helped with this ‘crazy system’ that ‘doesn’t make any sense’....

You do remember Hillary, or are you to busy with ‘Honey Bunny’ and the 25 teeny boppers on Jeffrey Epstein’s island and trying to get to the ‘porn star’ that you wife bought and paid for to smear Trump...oh and what about back in 2015 when you called Flowers and wanted to start the affair over again...have you called Monica yet? And what about Bobbi Ann Williams, been in contact with her lately???

Apparently it doesn’t cover “body lice” cream or other STD treatments.

GREAT! When he was president he let Hillary mess with healthcare which fortunately got a lot of publicity and was shot down. IF she gets in the WH she can let him mess it up some more. I’m sure old Magaziner is still on the scene to lend his support/advice...

This so calculated....like everything the conniving Clintons do.

Mentioning the “struggling middle class” is also a clue to Hillary’s campaign strategy.......when Bill Clinton ran, he calculatedly made moves to make himself attractive to the middle class.

Hillary knows she is not very appealing and at the same time she has to keep Obama stroked.

Obama setup a costly voter fraud machine for her (using our tax dollars), got her cleared of the email mess......and then there’s the crucial Obama coalition votes she desperately needs.

After all that largesse, Hillary can’t appear to be throwing Obama under the bus....that’s where Bill comes in.

The Clintons could care less about middle-class health premiums.......they’re in this strictly for themselves.

Our town lost its hospital 2 years ago. Some of the problem was mismanagement. Two hospital systems now have clinics in the town and 1 is building a 3 story building. There is also the county health clinic and a doctor with a clinic. All this in a town of 900. Healthcare is available, only you can’t stay overnight in a bed. I have heard good and bad about the 2 systems that are in other counties, about 25 to 30 miles away. They are building and expanding their hospitals but some call them ‘bed and breakfasts’. So yes, the hospitals we want the most are in the large cities, because then there is access to whatever care is needed at the moment.
