Newsbusters ^ | 7/19/11 | Aubrey Vaugha

For having made a shocking revelation that deeply undermined one the most repeated stories of Obama's 2008 campaign and 2009 health care debate, Janny Scott is staying extremely quiet. Scott's new book, 'A Singular Woman: The Untold Story of Barack Obama's Mother,' proved false Obama's claim that his mother was fighting with insurance companies from her death bed, one of Obama's favorite lines to use when campaigning and appealing for the passage of Obamacare.Yesterday, the Washington Examiner's Byron York wrote of being turned down twice after trying to reach Scott for an interview, even though the New York Times

No need. My guess is she set out to write a hagiography, and didn't take care to craft a story in line with the lies. Now she's mortified, and mute.

Scott probably included thisinformation because she thought that it showed how smart, howon the ball Obama’s mother was. She probably never listened closely to Obama’s campain spiels.

It seems like an investigator could find out the insurance that was used by Dunham while in the hospital. Might not be easy but could be done.

from the link at NewsBusters:

“...Scott writes that Dunham, who wanted to be compensated for those costs as well as for her living expenses, “filed a separate claim under her employer’s disability insurance policy.” It was that claim, with the insurance company CIGNA, that was denied in August 1995 because, CIGNA investigators said, Dunham’s condition was known before she was covered by the policy.”

Yes I read that info. I was talking about her Health insurance carrier not being known, not her disability carrier CIGNA - although CIGNA is also a Health insurer and could have been who her employer used for Health also.

Had to hurt .. he was a Times reporter.

Funny, that the times just released a statement that their people spend too much time writing books and it takes away from their other “duties”

hummmmm ... I am sure it is one of them coincidences.
