It's Obama's fault, because he is a Communist

[adigal]

Yes, a woman I know told me that last night, with a straight face. It is his fault that medical costs are so high. She made so little sense, words failed me. Which never happens! I was stunned. I said, "There is not even any Communisn anymore, except in North Korea. What ARE you talking about???" She said, Obama is Communist. I thought she was kidding! Then she told me Canadian and European doctors want an American system. I asked here where she saw that, and she said in her medical magazines. (She is a nurse.) I told her we are like 29th in health care outcomes, until age 65, when that Communist Medicare kicks in, and when she looks that up, we can talk. Until then, it was like talking nonsense.

She got pissed. Oh, well. Maybe she will keep her stupidity to herself next time.

1. The idiots that spout that nonsense can't even define communism.

They wouldn't recognize communism or any other ism if it bet them on the ass-TWICE.

2. that's like my sister in law saying she is going to go on the 'obamacare'

it's like wtf are you talking about! obviously you have no idea what you are talking about. then my husband comes home asking me what's in the healthcare law because my brother is bitching about how all the mandates are causing insurance to go up. wtf is he talking about. i remember he was bitching LAST YEAR about the insurance going up and the year before that and the year before that. but now it is because of the healthcare law? my husband came home and asked me what was in the law. off the top of my head i told him that it would cover kids til 26, insurance companies can't deny coverage for pre-existing conditions..... then i searched on here and found a video animation that explained what the law does and emailed it to him. not sure if he watched. now we live in ny where i believe they already have rules about what insurance companies can do. i don't blame anyone for getting upset about the choices of insurance available at where my husband and brother work.... $10k deductible. before they PAY A DIME!! sure i'd be pissed. but to blame obama and the healthcare law which did try to address these issues. i am not happy with it but at least he tried to do something before the bs town hall meetings. you so just want to tell people when they complain about their insurance that they got what they wanted. so fucking deal with it.
