Hell yeah, I Like Obamacare

Friend --

I like Obamacare.

I'm proud of it -- and you should be, too.

Here's why: Because it works.

So if you're with me, say it: "I like Obamacare."

Obamacare means never having to worry about getting sick and running up against a lifetime cap on insurance coverage. It gives parents the comfort of knowing their kids can stay on their insurance until they're 26, and that a "pre-existing condition" like an ear infection will never compromise their child's coverage.

It's about ending the practice of letting insurance companies charge women 50 percent more -- just because they're women.

And Obamacare can save seniors hundreds of dollars a year on prescription drugs -- and gives them access to preventive care that is saving their lives.

President Obama never lost sight of the fact that this reform is about people. People like his own mother, who spent the last years of her life fighting cancer -- and fighting with insurance companies, too.

That shouldn't happen. And because of Obamacare, it can't.

So next time you hear someone railing against Obamacare, remember what they're actually saying they want to take away.

And, today, stand with me in saying, "Hell yeah, I'm for Obamacare":

Thanks,

David

P.S. -- Side note: Can you imagine if the opposition called Social Security "Roosevelt Security"? Or if Medicare was "LBJ-Care"? Seriously, have these guys ever heard of the long view?

If they can force you to pay for health insurance then they are responsible for everything you do with your body...You are a slave to government.

Aren't they already telling us what we can do with our bodies with anti-abortion laws and trying to outlaw contraceptives?

Obama wants to mandate health insurance because "everyone will get sick at some time and we don't want the uninsured to be a burden on the rest." Why not mandate burial insurance because everyone is going to die? And burial for indigent and homeless people is paid for by the government, too!

Anon 12:19 could you be any more blind , ignorant , or just a moron ? Roe V wade pretty much makes abortion legal and they happen way to often every day and they di not want to outlaw contraception they just don't want to force people who do not believe in it to pay for it. Stop reading your lefties manifestos and actually learn the truth.

If Obamacare is so great why not move "all" federal workers (congress, senate, executive branch included) onto it?

This question was asked of them before and the response from the Democrat was "No they are happy with what they have"

Whats good for the goose is good for the gander!

If this bill isn't overturned, about 65 employees at our company will lose their employer-sponsored health care plan. It'll be much cheaper to pay the fine, than to pay the mandates imposed on our small business.

i love throwing all personal accountability out the window too! eventually, once people realize the government will do everything for you, everyone will stop working. where does the money come from then?

5:11 PM I agree with you congress,senators and excutive branches do not want this coverage because they know it is not worth a darn. They want all of us on it but again there are 2 sets of rules one for them and one for us.
