The ObamaCare Hydra-Headed Monster
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 03/07/2014 | IBD Staff

Posted on 03/09/2014 5:40:37 AM PDT by IBD editorial writer

Health Care: ObamaCare is turning out like the nine-headed Hydra monster of Greek mythology. Every time President Obama tries to lop off one of its failures, two more emerge. Recent news provides a good case in point.

On Wednesday, Obama decreed that those who had plans they liked before ObamaCare could keep them for two more years.

The move helped solve a huge political problem Obama himself created when he first made it possible for some people to keep plans they liked.

Obama had allowed just a one-year extension — where he gets the authority to do any of this is beyond us — but in doing so, he created a worse political problem: Cancellation notices on these extended plans would start going out just before the November elections.

So, whack! Obama extended the deadline to protect Democrats facing tough re-election bids.

Soon after Obama decapitated that problem, however, two more ObamaCare fiascoes surfaced:

By his actions, Obama has nothing but contempt for Americans and America.

It’s very ‘telling’ that the plan is sooo bad that it has to be delayed until Jimmah is out of office.

I do not like this Uncle Sam.
I do not like his health care scam.

I do not like — oh, just you wait —

I do not like these dirty crooks,
or how they lie and cook the books.

I do not like when Congress steals,
I do not like their crony deals.

I do not like this spying, man,
I do not like, ‘Oh, Yes we can.’

I do not like this spending spree,
we’re smart, we know there’s nothing free.

I do not like reporters’ smug replies
when I complain about their lies.

I do not like this kind of hope,
and we won’t take it, nope, nope, nope.”

One of the comments:

The best description of Obamacare so far: Remember when Nancy Pelosi said:"We have to pass it, to find out what's in it." A physician called into a radio talk show and said: "That's the definition of a stool sample."

O/Care is full of scams and tricks---various corrupt schemes to fulfill O's obsession w/ a permanent Dem Majority.

CASE IN POINT--The thought of losing their seats is giving Dems nightmares (and bad cases of crotch itch)..... but never fear, O/Care is rife w/ endless vote fraud tricks.

Obama went on latino TV whining about "underdeserved" latinos and is conniving to get them enrolled.

INCONVENIENT FACTOID Latinos do not need to pay for O/Care---they can get free healthcare any frickin' time they want it.

Obama's "latino enrollment" scam is a ruse to get votes by putting illegals into O/Care. NOTE WELL healthcare.gov is also a voter registration site. Tricky Democrats can easily plug in enrollees into their voter rolls.....and count them as votes on election day.

================================================

Here's how the tricky Dems work the enrollment/voter scam: O/Care's Oregon state exchange "accidentally" enrolled 4000 illegals

PASS THE WORD: This is a scam. Enrolling illegals was no accident. Obamacare web sites are also setup to accept voter registrations.

In Oregon vote-crazed Dems racked up 4000 votes (that we know of) to help them survive looming 2014 midterms).

CONTACT Oklahoma Secy of State
313 NE 21st St
Oklahoma City, OK 73105
(405) 557-1700
TollFree: (866) 227-7784

BOOKMARK THIS Each state's Secretary of State is required to check into all cases of reported voter fraud. Course a Dem won't. But many states have Repub Secy's of State. They should be notified about illegals registering via O/Care.....and fraudulently plugged into Democrat voter rolls.

The best way to get it stopped would be to fully implement it with no exemptions for any American human, even in DC. Congresscritters would be working like ants on speed to change it.

How in the world are the insurance companies handling these day-to-day changes that affect their administrative operations?
