Mediaite’s Tommy Christopher got the opportunity to ask White House Press Secretary Jay Carney a question at Tuesday’s daily press briefing, an opportunity he used to present a partisan line of questioning about Obamacare, the government shutdown and the debt ceiling. This Was an Actual Question at Tuesdays White House Press Conference
“When I had a heart attack a few years ago, I was uninsured and I haven’t been able to get insurance ever since then,” Christopher began. “Listening to all the pressure on the president to negotiate, some of it coming from inside this room, made me think: Is there a chance the president would be willing to delay Obamacare for a year if Republicans would agree to delay heart attacks for a year?”
Carney smiled and said the White House believes that Obamacare should be fully implemented to address the nation’s health care concerns. Christopher also claimed he has been able to access the online exchanges, a claim not that many people can make.
Christopher then moved on to Social Security and the effects of the government shutdown, invoking his mother in his line of questioning.

Vampire, anyone have a good stake?

Why do they keep calling it “affordable health care”? It’s insurance, right? So taking your insurance card to a hospital or doctor who declines accepting you, you’re out of luck. They don’t have to accept it. And then when they find out the deductible .......
I will not support delaying heart attacks for any democrat.
I was surprised anyone could understand him with....
Oh I was going to suggest something was in his mouth but I’ll just save the Admin Moderator the trouble.
Most all states have a high risk insurance pool.
The presstitutes sure had their claws out for Talon News Service’s reporter when Bush was president.
The Journolists are in full effect propping up Obama with no rebuke from the peanut gallery.

Media Matters raised the question of Talon News’ legitimacy with respect to Gannon’s loaded questions at White House press conferences, such as asking then President George W. Bush how he would work with Democrats who had “divorced themselves from reality.”
... Media Matters also discovered that the Talon News operation seemed as more of an arm of the PAC GOPUSA than a legitimate journalistic enterprise.
The MSM is hardly a legitimate journalistic enterprise these days. Whether it is pimping for Democrat agenda items or pimping for their own parent corporation’s entertainment product.
We don’t call them “Presstitutes”’ for nothing!
So bloggers are back to being “legitimate press corp journalists” again?

The guy was probably a liberal plant.
I hope he wiped his chin before leaving the press room.
Betcha he has a big screen TV, a cable TV subscription, an iPhone with an expensive monthly data plan, and numerous restaurant visits, but no money for healh insurance, prior to his heart attack.
Rather than complaining, he should be thanking his lucky stars that someone treated a deadbeat like himself.
If ObamaCare goes full out, the jerk can plead his case to an IRS surgeon. Aren’t hospitals still open? Did he cancel his current health insurance? What an idiot.
Not any more.
That was a planted question...
Jay Carney doesn’t seem to understand the following. He evidently doesn’t know that the Constitution doesn’t say yes or no to public healthcare. What the Constitution does is to automatically reserve government power to regulate, tax and spend for public healthcare purposes uniquely to the states.
And should enough states become convinced that a national healthcare program is needed, then there is nothing stopping the states from ratifying an amendment to the Constitution which would grant Congress the specific power that it needs to establish such a program.
So patriots are justifiably complaining that federal Obamacare was wrongly established outside the framework of the Constitution, regardless what activist justices want everybody to believe about Obamacare.
I think that you mistake Carney for someone who actually cares about what the Constituion says or doesn't say.

Personalize it
Frame it
Freeze it
And "urinalists"!
You might be right.
On the other hand, ignorance (Carney) is bliss.
We have to start calling it Democratcare so that we can hang it on all the Dems in 2014.
He lived and isn’t homeless, so he didn’t need the insurance after all.
Why is it our fault that he didn’t have insurance before he had the supposed heart attack. He made the choice not to have insurance.
Pixie dust ...
Kudos! You said it way more politely than I was planning too.
the White House believes that Obamacare should be fully implemented
So why did obama delay it? {crickets}from the media....
My GAYDAR is going off!! Don’t even know what this little twerp looks like, but he MUST be GAY to ask such a GIRLIE question.
