Landrieu made the comments today at the Louisiana Legislative Black Caucus and the Louisiana Legislative Black Caucus Foundation 29th Annual Bayou Classic Scholarship Jazz Brunch in New Orleans.
Landrieu delivered the keynote address at the event and said providing quality healthcare to everyone can be done. She says the Affordable Care Act is the answer.
**SNIP**
Landrieu added, "So despite the fact there are some leaders in our state that say no and pull out the rug -- we are going to say yes and we're going to lay down a foundation. We're going to keep fighting to do everything we can to help bring a better vision of healthcare and hope to this state."

Mary Landrieu encourages alternate health insurance enrollments
Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu and seven other Senate Democrats are asking federal officials to find new ways for people to enroll in health insurance plans while the government-run HealthCare.gov website is being fixed.
The liberals are doubling down on this POS now.
A compliant media will help them.
They better hope the website never gets fixed because a helluva lot more people will see what a disaster this thing is.
This is just like yasser arafat used to do: say one thing in arabic and another in english. Except in this case mary landrieu is saying one thing in ebonics and another in english.
If you are not a mega-fan of Star Trek the original series then this post most likely makes absolutely no sense to you, so therefore ignore it.
FESTIVAL!!!!
Notice they are trying to get everyone to call it Affordable Care Act , every Dem that shows up calls it that now
The second photo looks like Detroit on Saturday night.
LOL! And the way things are going that will probably be true for the rest of the country as well.
<><> Nancy Pelosi (Dimwit-Calif) famously egged-on Congress to pass Obamacare "so we could see whats in it.
<><> Sen Mary Landrieu (Dimwit-LA) in the well of the Senate speaking to voters about their "sub-standard" health plans: "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan."
<><> Sen. Dianne Feinstein (Dimwit-Calif): I listened to the president and I believed him when he said,' if you liked your plan, you can keep your plan.' I didnt realize there were all these codicils attached to it."
<><> Pres Barack Obama (Dimwit-Ill): "we fumbled" the healthcare roll out." (Nominated for Understatement of The Century).
================================================
All those loyal Dimocrats applauding the bill signing, who "stood tall" for Obamacare and sold their aye votes, also voted for this atrocity which Obama wrote into the healthcare bill:
DIMCRATS VOTED EN MASSSE FOR THIS
IPAB is an Obama-created fifth branch of govt. government agency (as the con artist turned EPA, the IRS, the FCC, HSS, etc. into the fourth branches of govt).
IPAB (Independent Payment Advisory Board) is the first agency of the fifth branch of govt.....composed of hand- picked unelected members appointed by Obama:
1) It will make all important health care decisions by authorizing payment or not.
2) It is not funded by Congress and cannot have its budget reviewed or changed.
3) Its membership cannot be changed by future Presidents,
4) It cannot be repealed by Congress, except for a six month window in 2017.
5) Its decisions are not subject to judicial review.
6) It is not authorized by the Constitution, and is therefore immune to Constitutional processes.
==============================================
Obamacare con artists eliminated the ASSET TEST, (which would have prevented those with assets to even be considered for Medicaid coverage). Every person herded onto Medicaid signed away their entire estate to the govt. Heirs get nothing---everything goes to the state to re-coup the expenses incurred under Medicaid. The Obama criminals duped people into a reverse mortgage scheme......
Here's how it works.
The Obama con artists herded seniors WITH ASSETS onto Medicaid---a program specifically structured for the poor.
Herding sickly elderly with assets into Medicaid has ominous consequences intriguing to sap-happy leftists. B/c assets, perhaps a home owned free and clear, securities, annuities, investment property, can be seized to pay for govt treatment.
Thus intergenerational transfers of wealth (a longtime liberal/progressive bugaboo)----are decimated. Can you say redistribution of wealth?
=================================================
Boobamba's got plans.....secret, nefarious plans for grampa/ma duped into signing up for Medicare/Aid. The BOOB can't get 'em to sign up on the flopola healthcare.guv website---so he's throwing some 400,000 onto MEDICAID------and all the costs of medical care will be charged back.
How can he do that? By slapping federal and state LIENS against signers' homes, and other assets.......the Obamacare con artists eliminated the ASSET TEST, (which would have prevented those with assets to even be considered for Medicaid coverage).
So those who now think, "Golly gee, my government loves me, Obama says I qualify for subsidized Medicaid care, I'll be well- taken care of"---have been suckered into a REVERSE ASSET LIQUIDATION FEDERAL MONEY GRAB.
And, once in the hands of the Obama criminal hordes, all that money is untraceable.>
Landrieu is one of the senators who sold out her state when her vote for OCare was bought.
She has no choice but to defend it now. She look like a complete idiot if she didn’t. (Which, unfortunately she....)
She can defend it while she is running for re-election and she can kiss all those lovely perks behind as she gets beaten.
I could be wrong—perhaps there are enough blacks and crazies in La. to re-elect her.
She’s walking dead (politically) anyway.
The commie libs have to defend it. If ObamaCare goes down, communism in America takes a huge hit and is dealt a major setback.
Captain,take cover!
Theres a Samurai after me!!!
It is only affordable to those who don’t have to pay for it.
They understand the "united we stand/divided we fall" meme. They will circle the horses, increase the lies and smearing of Republicans, and try to "brash it out", because they know how bad it really is. They probably know of even more problems than we do.
There are, and she also has Republican support from such people as the president of St. Tammany Parish (a large suburban parish outside New Orleans). The late Gov. David Treen was also a Landrieu booster. The runoff, presumably between Landrieu and Rep. Bill Cassidy, will be in December 2014; the primary in LA is held in November along with the November general elections elsewhere. People in LA have not defeated a U.S. senator since, I believe, 1930.
Brilliant line, but possibly above the people's understanding.
They aint got much now, maybe it’s time.
