The disinformation surrounding the ACA is astounding. Dealing with FB "friends" all day... [View all]

It's mind blowing. I know the people I've been dealing with are Fox watchers. They're all from Red states with no exchanges..."Why do I have to pay more just so you can get a better policy?" HUH? When pressed, not a single one of them has said they'd actually visited Healthcare.gov...they just parrot what Hannity and Fox & Friends have told them, or just spouted the lies delivered to them in their insurance cancellation policy.

I have to hand it to the GOP and the corporate media...they've scared the bejeebers out of people. Too bad Mr. Obama couldn't have been more out in front of this fiasco. How did they not see this coming? Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups, Mr. President.
