Laura ("Ann Coulter is my favorite philosopher" Ingraham is saying, "Listen Governor Kasich, don't you realize that Ohio's acceptance of Obamacare's Medicare expansion, a bill you signed into law, plays right into Democratic hands. It will now become increasingly difficult to get rid of Obamacare and shove the whole mess in the electorate's face come next November and in 2016. . . . And what the heck does Ohio get in return? . . . Only a few humdred thousand more citizens with health care coverage, another couple hundred thousand more mentally ill patients out of jail and into treatment, and coverage that will save taxpaying Ohio citizens from paying for these losers when they show up at emergency rooms. . . . I'd say that's a pretty damn poor trade-off!! . . . Excuse my language."

The above CAPTION was based on the following Huffington Post story:

She got hers. Good thing she could afford health care when she had breast cancer. How hateful can you be?

essential qualities (as here) or exaggerate what they say to heighten their hypocrisy, or have them say what they'd like to say and even probably would say if they thought they could get away with it, etc.
Actually, Laura did say much of the above and the conversation contained much of the rest in the OP. (But it's not factual.)
