The liberals always use “it’s for the children” while the liberals give full approval of abortions
Thank God someone is calling this out for what it was: a pathetic lie and attempt to manipulate public opinion.
Kudos to Michelle.
A generously compensated liberal entertainer with equally generous health coverage provided by a giant media conglomerate uses his child as a prop for socialized medicine. Keepin’ it classy.
Kimmel’s newborn was never at risk of not being treated; however, my kids lost their pediatricians, lost their primary hospital, lost their nearby clinics, while I’m forced to pay 60% more than before.
On a personal level, the Kimmel family is in my prayers, but regarding Kimmel’s public stance on Obamacare, he can go # himself.
“It’s for the children”
I wonder what the over/under is on how many of Kimmel’s spawn were aborted by Silverman.
Jimmy Kimmel’s situation makes a good argument for an out of pocket limit that should be based on a percentage of either gross income or net worth. It makes no sense that Jimmy K pays the same out of pocket as the assistant producer on the show, regardless of income or wealth. Same logic applies to Warren Buffet and his secretary. Rich people need to pay more for the same service... after all, they can afford it.
Now we have liberal multimillionaires weaponizing tiny tots.....
Or at least those they haven’t killed off in the womb.
Or killed off emerging from the womb.
Yeah! From each according to their ability, to each according to their need!!! That’s one of America’s founding principles! I think George Washington said that!!!
"The State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) – now known more simply as the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) – is a program administered by the United States Department of Health and Human Services that provides matching funds to states for health insurance to families with children. The program was designed to cover uninsured children in families with incomes that are modest but too high to qualify for Medicaid."

Covers 8 million children, and costs $13.5 billion.
He’s right about the pre-existing condition possibly limiting his son’s future insurance.
I have a pre-existing illness, a heart defect, and before Obamacare I couldn’t get health insurance.
No one would insure me, not one company, and I tried them all.
It’s true that had my heart ruptured I could’ve gotten help at the ER, but that would’ve been only for the immediate emergency, I couldn’t have gotten a cardiologist or future follow-up unless I had $750,000 in the bank, which I don’t.
Now, under Obamacare, I have health insurance. I know it’s ruinous fir many, many people. It’s radically increased premiums and destroyed choice of doctors and hospitals, but I do recognize, and experienced it personally, that had O-care not passed I’d still be without health insurance today, through no fault of my own other than having been born with a heart defect.
I hope that somehow rational health care can be worked out by the government that allows pre-existing conditions while lowering premiums, maybe competion or intra-state insurance plans, as Anne Coulter has been saying.

Bttt for Malkin!
Isnt he also a writer? They have the cream of the crop Insurance in Hollywood which is pArt of the issue over threatened strike
I remarked the other day to my wife how the uninsured dead are being piled up like cordwood outside St Luke’s emergency entrance . . .
Oh please. Malkin is the one making this political. Did you watch his monologue? One of the most gut-wrenching stories I’ve heard in a while. Afterward, he made a point to thank all the nurses and doctors who assisted them. He pulled out a list and personally thanked dozens of medical pros.
You could get health insurance if you worked for a company with a group policy. Now the rest of us are paying $15K a year so every crackhead in America can have a Cadillac plan.
If Kimmel is any indication of how this newborn might turn out, he and his wife screwed up bigly when they decided against aborting it. Screw him, his wife and her afflicted plumbing, and their defective progeny.
Gee, wasn't that so funny? How do you like it, Kimmelfarb?
;^)
OK, how about this.
“Jimmy: if you lived in one of your Hollywood’s beloved meccas your baby would be dead. And, maybe not just because they couldn’t fix him, but also because they would not waste the government’s money on a birth defect. Want to know why we are doing so poorly on infant mortality in the US? Its because we try. Most everywhere else they would have assisted the birth with a vacuum hose and sent him home in a biohazard bag.”
So, STFU.
