Ed Schultz Attacks NY Times, Geraldo, Fournier for ‘Despicable’ Comparison of Obamacare to Katrina

[alp227]

MSNBC host Ed Schultz ripped into every pundit and media outlet making a historical comparison to the botched roll-out of the Affordable Care Act to any event that occurred under the Bush administration. Schultz tore into the New York Times, Fox News Channel host Geraldo Rivera, and National Journal Editorial Director Ron Fournier who all compared the ACA roll-out to George W. Bush’s response to Hurricane Katrina or the Iraqi insurgency.

Schultz began Friday’s commentary by savaging the 39 House Democrats who voted in favor of Rep. Fred Upton’s (R-MI) bill which would allow those who have lost their insurance plans to reacquire them indefinitely.

“What they have done has given an open highway to the insurance industry to add more stuff so they can make more profits and screw the consumers,” Schultz exclaimed.

Pivoting to the political commentators and politicians criticizing the ACA roll-out, Schultz started down the list by attacking Mitt Romney. “The middle class millionaire had the nerve to call the president dishonest?” Schultz began.

[Thinkingabout]

1. The only comparison betwee ACA and Katrina is the lack of health insurance. It is not the

Same. Those who compare Katrina and ACA should be required to stand on an overpass in 103 degree without shelter, water, food or shelter then maybe they can understand Katrina. Blotcher King Bush flying overhead and looking down, his actions was inexcusable. ACA will help many to get insurance who did not have it before. The Katrina portion of ACA is dumb GOP governors withholding Medicaid to those who qualify.
