What's Obamacare Cost? Obama Small Biz Chief: 'I Bought Jam For My Friends!'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Hector Camacho might be in rough shape in hospital, but someone is out there bobbing and weaving like a champ. Meet Karen Mills, President Obama's head of the Small Business Administration.

When Joe Scarborough asked her straight-up to state the cost per worker of Obamacare, Mills ducked like a pro, switched the subject, and wound up describing . . . how last year, she bought blueberry jam at a Maine farmers market as gifts for her friends! Not a joke—just a world-class non sequitur from an Obama administration that would rather talk about anything other than the cost of its big-government plans.

It would almost be funny if it weren’t so infuriating. Watch Obama official dodge question on per-worker cost of Obamacare. Ping to Today show list.

Don’t you get it? THEY do NOT have to answer to us mere peons. THEY are untouchable; above it all.....oh yes, and above US all.

Welcome to Amerika.

And of course, dumb ol’ Joe let her get away with it because he is too stupid to catch on that none of his questions ever get answers from the federal hacks.

They have been disingenuous about Obamacare before and during the ramming of it down our throats on a Christmas eve two years ago.
Remember our Maximum Leader promising open debates on the `Affordable Care’ act on CNN—that never happened?
And assuring (gullible) Joe “You lie!” Wilson that he would use his executive power to veto any provision for abortion?
And here’s the Bondo Queen in all her ditzy glory:

Why should the post-natal treatment of this little bastard-beast by those who spawned it be any different?
Is it any wonder that they hold us the same contempt we feel for them?

I’m sure Joe’s next penetrating question was, “was it strawberry or blueberry?”.

I couldn’t get past her insistence that no small business owners she talked to voiced any concern at all over the cost of Obamacare, that indeed, they were eager for it, and couldn’t WAIT to have the opportunity to provide insurance for all their employees.

Blueberry Jam reference?
I think it's code

The Country is in a Jam

(months from now she'll say she did say the country was in a jam, 'play the tape')

She wouldn't have heard if they did complain. The socialists always know what's best for their subjects. The cost is not important.
