WATCH: Terrified ‘Tea Party Patriot’ realizes he could lose Obamacare if GOP wins in 2016

“And I’m serious because I asked myself, ‘Which party has helped me out the most in the last, I don’t know, 15 years, 20?’ And it was the Democrat [SIC] Party,” Webb lamented. “If it wasn’t for Obama and that Obamacare, I would still be working.”

“With Obamacare, I got to retire at age 50 because if it wasn’t for Obamacare, I would have had to work until I was 65 and get on Medicare because health insurance is expensive when you’ve got medical problems,” he continued.

He's a Plant. He's stoking all the baggers worst most ignorant fears about the ACA and the Democrats by saying he sits around all day and doesn't want to have to work.

He's delivering a "dire warning" that if Hillary wins, then all the lazy people in the country will suck up all your money.

Who the hell can retire at age 50 because of Obamacare?

This is a Rovian/Breitbart type operation.

Can't believe people on this site are falling for this.

Who would even want to retire at 50?

Answer: people with not-very-interesting careers.

That's part of the insidiousness of his message—because it confirms and pushes the RW theory about all us lazy, liberal "takers". We just want to sit around all day on government hand-outs. It's a get-out-the-vote video against Hillary. Pretty well done I guess.

The patriots in the party believe that everyone should work from the moment of birth to the moment of death with no excuses allowed.

Sadly there are plenty of people in similar situations that are too stubborn to switch their votes to the Democrats.

That "Democrat Party" crap HAS to be cut off at the knees. That's one of those sneaky-ass little tactics they've employed against us for YEARS. I correct it every time I hear somebody say it. But I can't shout loudly enough at my TV to fix it there!

That's one reason why I refer to the GOP as the republi-CONS. ('Cuz all they offer is a CON JOB.) I do that because I will decide what to call them. If they're gonna pull that on my party's name, then back atcha, assholes!!!! Have some of that TOO!!! If you think YOU can decide what the name of my party is, then I will do likewise with YOURS. I'll stop, CONS - when YOU do.

I know a Tea Party couple like that. She would bitch about Obamacare almost every day. But since her Tea Party husband's fatal heart attack a couple mo. ago, absolutely nothing. Its like T-Partiers are teens that think they are invincible and immortal.

They tried to make the ACA sound bad by calling it Obamacare, but this guy is happy with "Obamacare". They've convinced EVERYONE that if elected, the republicans would repeal the ACA, which is starting to instill fear in their constituents that they will lose it.

These republican congresszombies should keep it up. And for all their female constituents, keep up the anti-female, anti-gay rhetoric!!

Dumbasses!

This is not real. He's lying about the ACA. Can't you hear that? That's the baggers whole belief system---that people who want the ACA just want to laze around all day and never work.

Hope you heard how many times he said "I don't want to have to work". Or words to that effect.

He's faking all of this to slip in bagger anti-ACA ideology.

That's a deal breaker for me. I would like a primary please.

But I love that a Tea Partier is seeing that it's the Dems that have done things for the people, not the GOP. Thom Hartmann is always challenging people to tell him one thing - just one - that Republicans have done that has benefited the working people of the US. He has yet to hear one.

I felt this guy was reading a script and it was staged. I don't believe a word he says. It's the Democratic Party and a bagger would have known that. I'm not buying it.
