Chad Henderson Exposes The Media (Lied to LSM about enrolling in ObamaCare)
Mediaite ^ | 10/4/13 | Noah Rothman

There is no greater hatred than that born out of affection spurned and trust betrayed. Yesterday, the media loved Chad Henderson. Today, they hate him.

-snip-

Henderson’s story was particularly attractive. He was precisely what the media, and the White House, needed: a young, ostensibly healthy individual willing to pay a substantial portion of the meager income into the system so that it can support older, more chronically ill patients who will be partaking in health care services regularly.

In the media’s rush to make a star out of Henderson, they failed to vet him thoroughly. Most of the press missed the fact that Henderson is a current political activist and Organizing for America volunteer. Somewhat more egregiously, they also missed the fact that Henderson’s story was not true.

Dead people can sign up for health care in Kentucky 1:48 PM 10/04/2013

Alex Pappas

Political Reporter

Obamacare can help dead people, too.

This is apparent in Kentucky, where application forms for the state’s new Obamacare benefit exchange asks if the application is for someone who has recently died.

Question 39 on the kynect: Kentucky’s Healthcare Connection printable application form for a single person health seeking either coverage or help paying costs, states: “If you are filling out this application on behalf of a person who recently passed away, enter the deceased person’s date of death.”

Maybe hanging Chad had a reality check after he got on the Obozo Care site?

“The younger folks will opt for the fine instead. Or they will just ignore the whole thing, and hope that they don’t get caught.

That’s the problem. Obamacare’s balance sheet depends on these younger folks. They are the healthy group. Their premiums are needed to fund care for everybody else.”

Feedback from our younger relatives, age 40+, re the Obozocare target group is interesting.

Apparently, a large % of this group hides a lot if not most of their income from the tax suckers. If they work, they want to be paid in cash only. The last thing they are going to do is put their real income into a computer monitored by the IRS.

willing to pay a substantial portion of the meager income into the system...

Like any good socialist would. Once Obamacare gets going, we will hear stories about other good sociaists, like those who don't cry out in pain during an amputation because anesthetic has been declared a "wasteful" bourgeoise luxury.
