September 22, 2013 9:24 AM Pelosi Defends Obamacare: 'A Liberation' By Eliana Johnson

Nancy Pelosi launched a full-throated defense of Obamacare on Sunday in the face of criticism from some of the president’s most loyal allies including union leaders concerned it will undermine the 40-hour work week.

“Overwhelmingly for the American people, this is a liberation, this is life, healthy life, liberty, the freedom to pursue your happiness,” Pelosi told CNN’s Candy Crowley. “It’s about wellness, it’s about prevention, it’s about a healthier America.” She said that Congress is working to address the concerns raised by unions and charities, among others, and that the law provides for “leeway” to address them.

The House minority leader tacitly fauled the Obama administration for its failure to inform the American people fully about the benefits of the law. “The message has not gotten out adequately,” she said.

What sort of "liberation" is it that forces people to buy services they do not want from companies that are forced to provide it on financial terms dictated by Federal law?

Freedom is Slavery.

This “person” is seriously and utterly deranged. How in the hell did this country get to the point where the mindless, immoral, dimwits of society infest the top ranks of seemingly every leadership position, and where babbling, incoherent bullcrap like this is spewed forth without severe rebuke and retribution. Unfriggin’ believable.

Pelosi is a prime example of the entire Democrat party and their sycophant mouthpieces in the media who will make any lie no matter how untruthful to further their agenda.

Nothing from the left is worth a grain of salt.

“It’s about wellness, it’s about prevention, it’s about a healthier America.”

Well, it is certainly not about the US Constitution--the rationalizations of John Roberts notwithstanding...

Yeah, if your "wellness and prevention" efforts don't work out, you're dead. Then, with you in the ground, we have a healthier America.

Yeah, it's a great deal if you are a `hipster' deadhead and your insurance premiums are subsidized. hipster photo:  uh.jpg Not so great if you are having to pay their way/take up their slack. FUNP

as long as you’re health , you’ll have life, get sick there will be no hospitals, doctors or medical care but a pain pill under Obamacare. What a legacy for a deserving President.

The only freedom Obamacare will give is the freedom to DIE when you can’t get prompt health care.
