You know they say, once you’ve lost Hitler it’s time to turn out the lights. Say goodnight, Gracie – err, Eva. (Hat tip: Hot Air).
So you’ve got none other than Bill “Now you listen to me. I did not have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky” Clinton now instructing President Obama that he has to make good on folks after lying that they could keep their doctors and their insurance plans.
You’ve got congressional Democrats telling the White House they have 72 hours to “fix” Obamacare or they’ll consider joing House GOP members on their own “keep your insurance if you like it” legislation.
And you’ve got California senator Diane Feinstein joining Louisiana senator Mary Landrieu on the latter’s own “keep it if you like it” legislation.
Of course, this is all preposterous because the fact is, those insurance policies lost by nearly 5 million folks (heading upwards to as much as 75 to one hundred million folks by some estimates once the employer mandate kicks in) are gone forever. They’re like water to the Obamacare oil; the two don’t mix and can’t – Obamacare cost/benefit metrics don’t allow for such a thing. Either the law stands and the folks lose their insurance, or the law goes. There’s no in between. So the Democrats own it, they own this crisis (if you want to call it that) after voting for it 100%. Remember, no Republicans voted for it, not a one. And Democrats also voted down a GOP bill that would have allowed folks to keep their insurance against the heavy-handed, so-called “grandfathering” of insurance plans instituted by HHS director Kathleen “The Ghoul” Sebelius back in 2010. So it all belongs to the Democrats. And to see them now try to distance themselves from the very law they voted in four years ago is pretty amusing to watch.
I guess “San Fran Nan”cy Pelosi was right when she said Obamacare needed to be passed so folks could see what was in it.
