How did this thread go from bitching about the ACA to bitching about VP? I'm so confused.

This is now my catch-all thread. When DT opened, I swore myself to not creating any non-gambling related topics, though I will respond to them. As a result, this thread is one of the best things that could have happened to me here.

Obamacare's critics justified: Our view

Sorry, USA Today, but you're about 5 years too late. The Tea Party had been warning everyone about the very things that are coming true regarding Obamacare, but you morons were too busy deriding them instead of listening to them.

I think the rest of the story at the bottom discounts the top of the story where ObamaCare is derided. For 80% of Americans, they won't need to do anything different. For the 15% that are uninsured, they now have insurance. For the other 5%, as the story illustrated, they didn't have insurance, at least some of those had a discount policy that no longer applies.

Not that I'm defending the complete lack of system and load testing apparently on the healthcare.gov website. I know from experience that's the one thing that you have to do before you release a piece of software to the public -- have a large beta test, and have a load test using software. These things clearly weren't done, and the Project Managers on both the CGI side (okay, it's one of our competitors, screw them!) and the government have to be held accountable.

Obama also has to be held accountable for the screwups too.

You must have missed what I wrote. I said that USA Today and the rest of the media ignored everything that the Tea Party claimed about Obamacare and instead derided them. Yet the Tea Party's claims have ended up being true. USA Today has come to the party a few years too late.

They should have made this list ala carte(choose 7(or your number or none) out of 10, your choice):

Ambulatory patient services
Emergency services
Hospitalization
Maternity and newborn care
Mental health and substance use disorder services, including behavioral health treatment not yet anyway
Prescription drugs
Rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices
Laboratory services
Preventive and wellness services and chronic disease management
Pediatric services, including oral and vision care

Where's vision for adults?

Any guesses as to what percentage each of the 10 above relates the cost of a policy? I doubt it's as simple as 10% each.

Is Rand Paul in the Tea party ?


He doesn't think the Civil Rights Act should apply to private businesses. When asked “Do you think that a private business has the right to say ‘we don’t serve black people?’” He answered, “Yes,” and defended their “right” to discriminate as “freedom of speech.”

What they could have done is just standardize coverage definition into these areas to make it easier to compare. Instead what they did is make everyone buy the full buffet when all many people want is a danish and coffee. Just more nanny-state socialism.

What does any of that have to do with my original point? When Obama said "you can keep your health plan", the Tea Party said he was full of it, yet the USA Today and other news outlets derided them. As it turns out, the Tea Party was right on the money. Sad how the mainstream media was too busy licking Obama's boots instead of acting like real journalists.

We have a POTUS who appointed a supreme who outright thinks skin color is more important than qualifications; we have a government that sets aside contract work based on skin color and gender. Clearly the government condones discrimination on its own part.

The Tea Party thought the government shutdown was going to be a great idea. Wrong on strategy and wrong on results. And it cost the country more money and slowed the economy.

Slowed the economy? Give me a break, the net effect to the economy is about zero. And now that people see the disaster Obamacare is, even dems are thinking delay is a good idea.

So we shut the government down and no big net savings? It's only negligible? You said it not me. Apparently a fully operational government has as little net economic effect as shutdown one.

This is a revelation from a conservative.

" This is a revelation from a conservative. " I am surrounded by conservatives in Grand Junction. Cut them damn food stamps, but don't dare touch them farm subsidies. Don't give New Jersey and aid after that Hurricane, but we need Fed Funds for storm damage and of course to pay for Monument upkeep and new bike trails to bring tourist here.

Federal aid is only bad when it is not going into a conservative's pocket.

Most of the government stayed open, and any net pay to government employees was made up within the month. Net savings was about $0.00.

Why are you so concerned with Rand Paul's alleged racism and not Al Sharpton's real racism?

For example, Rand Paul believes that the deaths of Christopher Lane and Trayvon Martin are equally tragic. OTOH, Sharpton thinks Trayvon's life is more important. That's racist, if you ask me.

There's no doubt that gay activists have agitated in up in your face ways. But they often pick smaller foes, (and actual foes) rather than running risk of damaging the entire economy. The TP just targeted everyone when they chose the course they did. That is a strategy of terrorists too. Just aim at the easiest biggest target regardless of who is responsible or whether your target has anything to do with your gripe.

Maybe they should just ban marriage completely and replace it with contracts, which include length in terms.

Who ever came up with such an idea anyway?

People have been reproducing a lot longer then marriage "vows" have been in existence.

Chick-fil-a is part of the economy, whether the gay marriage terrorists want to admit it or not. If a franchise gets hurt, so does the local economy. But do the gay marriage terrorists care? Of course not.

"Why are you so concerned with Rand Paul's alleged racism and not Al Sharpton's real racism?" And just exactly what led you to believe I agree with Al Sharpton. As A Chief Shop Steward I often filed grievances against affirmative action quotas.

But you seem to think pointing at another racist somehow proves that a tea party leader is not a racist. WTF ? ? ?

But you seem to think pointing at another racist somehow proves that a tea party leader is not a racist. WTF ? ? ?


I only brought up Sharpton's racism out of the blue because you brought up the Tea Party's (alleged) racism out of the blue in a conversation about health care. :)

TP did the equivalent of attacking KFC, Popeyes, Churches, El Pollo Loco and all the rest of the chicken industry. Even though the problem was just one restaurant chain.



When did the Tea Party attack any restaurant let alone all of them?

They did the equivalent of putting a gun to America's head with the government shutdown AND debt ceiling. They could have found a smaller target instead of the whole country.

Polls indicate they lost on that idea.
There's no secret. Just know what you're talking about before you open your mouth.
