Boehner tried to fuck with the ACA site...

and failed.. Put the Representative on hold for 35 minutes.

Question to everyone is: Have Any of you seen any coverage of this on MSM....

This is a big deal, I think....After the shit they have given Obama, My God!!

This says it all....Exactly what we stand for as a culture today..

Everybody hates the intrusive obnoxious Paparazzi ...But are they not just trying to pay their bills by giving our dumbed down public what they want...

This is a great example of why the general public cares little about what really is important..

This is a difficult read... Depressing as hell.

"Why Poor People Make Bad Decisions"................Even though most of us here are not where she is.. It is easy to contemplate how one can fall into this abyss very easily..Very well written..

Not particularly perhaps because of life style choices, but rather a serious medical condition or a disastrous financial decision/situation etc. could get us there very easily..

There is a pitch at the end... But desperation is desperation...I will chip in..

NY Times article exposes right wing propaganda Machine...

From Daily Kos...Author points out Dems hardly never push back on any right wing crap.. When they do it usually too late for the boots have circled our world..

Trouble is, when the truth does come out, no one in their base gives a shit. They love the lies, want to believe in the lies and do not care about repercussions...They think Repub. operatives have Jesus behind them so in this case the lies are o.k. when pertaining to a Godless Kenyan Socialists President... No lie too great..

Lets just hope articles such as this might have an impact on the 5% of the population who are honestly in the middle.

Go for it Barack..Just do it!!

My Girlfriend just turned 62 and was paying to Anthem Blue Cross...

$440 a month with a $7,000 deductible.. She had been with this carrier for almost 20 years on a high Premium
Plan with good benefits.. It all started happening around 55 when the premiums started going up $30, $40, a month until they finally reached close to $700 a month... So she got a $7,000 dollar deductible plan and immediately had a Meniscus Operation which sucked up the deductible..(By the way this is the second minor surgery she had in 22 years. No other illnesses thank God.

So there she was now on this shitty H.C. program paying now close to $500 a month $6000 a year. Out of work with a few assets which she had to protect.. (No House) 6000 x 3 years is $18,000 until Medicare with no job..

Then came Cover California. and then came a healthcare plan which meant no premium payments from now until Medicare....This is a life changing event. The clinics she is using are great and the stress of not having to come up with $500 a month is so freaking relieving.. She just had to prove that she had no income all..

I think the Cover California Plan is applicable in every state which accepted the Fed. Medicaid..
Can you imagine living in one of the states which doesn’t have these plans? I’d be in the streets. Why is there not open revolt (non-violent) in States where Medicaid subsidies were rejected? Live are freaking at stake here..

How the hell does “allowing people to purchase insurance over state lines help”?

This is the main center piece of the Repubs. attempt to fix the healthcare crisis.

Ted Cruz used this piece of shit solution today.

Great article by Joan Walsh..
