Leftmedia Celebrating Meaningless, Movable O-Care Goalposts

Local media even worse.

[clintonh8r]

I have been predicting (an easy call, really) for the past two weeks that The Magic Negro would somehow conjure >7 million sign-ups by the end of the phony enrollment period. And...sho ‘nuf!!

[lepton]

Perhaps the plan would be even better with one Billion sign ups...’cause signups are the goal, right? Maybe they can get their OFA drones to sign up 50 times each (and not pay).. That’d help, right?

[Frank_2001]

Back in the days of Bush the Cruel, weren’t there supposed to be between 30-47 MILLION UNINSURED, and what a national disgrace that was!? /sarcasm

[jeffc]

The media are just doing what they're told to do.

Still, I ain't cuttin' them any slack!

[P.O.E.]

I thought there were 31 million uninsured back when Obama was shilling his plan.

Now, all of a sudden, 7 million is considered great?

And what percent of the 7 million is legit?

[Steve_Seattle]

"Local media even worse."

Ditto here. The Seattle Times - and Carol Ostrom in particular - have been cheerleaders and facilitators, not reporters - since day one. It is fascism - a partnership between big government and corporate America.

[Steve_Seattle]

"And what percent of the 7 million is legit?"

Don't forget, you need to subtract the millions who LOST their insurance, and then subtract the hundreds of millions of dollars spent to sign up the alleged 7 million.

[what's up]

Of course. The creeps have done the same thing with votes for years....keep stretching the truth until the goal is met.

They are LIARS all the way.

It’s like deciding half-way through a semester that getting a D+ will be OK then pretending you’re Einstein reincarnate when you do.

Describes this entire fluster cluck.

Referenced in the article and well worth the read:

[P.O.E.]

It’s a crock all ‘round

[smoothsailing]

Less than 1 million (est. 858,000), that’s all.

And for that, the Democrats wrecked the finest health care system in the world.

[Art.] It’s like deciding half-way through a semester that getting a D+ will be OK then pretending you’re Einstein reincarnate when you do.

Funny, I just happened to look up the meaning of "pigeon chess" the other day, in another context.

It describes this Mariel cockfight of self-congratulation to a tee.

[lentulusgracchus]

And for that, the Democrats wrecked the finest health care system in the world.

Communists always destroy what they do not control; and if they cannot destroy it, they maim or disfigure it; and if they cannot maim or disfigure it, they tar it and besmear it; and if they cannot tar it, they lie about it and call it names.

Because they're always right and they never lie; and if you disagree, you'd better start looking over your shoulder.

[smoothsailing]

Good points all.

We’ve known about the roots of the current threat for many years now, but it’s always worthwhile to be reminded of them...

Thanks for the link.

The “Deadline” is smoke and mirrors at best.

There is no “Deadline” if:

(1) You apply for Medicaid (In Washington state, new Medicaid applications outnumber “Paid Policies” by 3 to 1).

(2) You get married.

(3) You lose your job.

(4) You are Native American.

There are a couple more exemptions I can’t recall at the moment.
