LANSING, MICH – Yesterday, Rep. Gary Peters released his Washington DC legal attack dogs out to intimidate and silence Julie Boonstra, a Michigan mother battling leukemia who had the courage to speak up after the insurance plan she liked was cancelled due to the Affordable Care Act.


What a scumbag. Just like the scumbag in chief and the IRS.

She needs to wise up that she can do a lot better under the ACA. For instance, she cannot be kicked out of, or excluded from, the plan due to her condition. If she is too dense to understand that, one can get pretty impatient with her.

Maybe she can.
However, didn't Obama say that if you like your plan you can keep it?

That doesn't apply if the insurance company cancels the plan. The companies cannot get new insureds for the plan because the new insureds are entitled to the ACA protections. I don't call that an Obama lie.

Really? No control at all? You should go tell people that this doesn't exist because humans have no control over the natural world.

re coldjoint and his current preoccupation:
The congressman is NOT going after Julie Boomstra. He's going after the AD she's in. What's called "Julie's Story" is in fact a f***king ADVERTISEMENT, paid for by the notorious archconservative Koch brothers, with a $750,000 TV buy in Michigan. It's a political attack ad, and it's bullshit. It garnered two out of four Pinocchios for its truth-telling, or lack thereof., becaue it virtually completely misrepresents her case, as she does. Her previous health plan had an extremely high premium. Obamacare's premium is just about half that. She has higher out-of-pocket expenses than in her previous plan, BUT THEY HAVE A CAP, AFTER WHICH SHE WILL HAVE TO PAY NOTHING. IF she hits the cap, after which she pays nothing, which is the worst case scenario, SHE WILL PAY $2 A YEAR, THAT'S TWO DOLLARS, MORE THAN HER PREVIOUS PLAN. And if her actual expenses are less than that, she'll save money under Obamacare. Plus according to the Detroit News (she's from Michgan, so they checked), she kkeeps the same doctor she liked and the same chemotherapy regime she's been on. Basically she, like the example the GOP Plastic Woman responding to the SOU cited, hadn't really checked to see what she was getting. or to compare plans. She's also got more consumer protections under Obamacare, that her previous plan didn't offer, which was why it was cancelled. She apparently would rather pay more simply because she paid the same exh month, even though she said it was a stretch, rather than potentially pay quite a bit less every year and at worst only $2 a year more, rather than have the monthly cost fluctuate, because she may have different medical needs each month.

Just another cdase of Fuckx News, and the ultraright blogosphere (and the GOP) misstating the "news" AGAIN> Have they no shame?

When my family lived in Michgan we always got the Detroit Free Press. Maybe we should have been getting the News

The FACT is that the earth is getting warmer (which is shown because temperature readings keep going up. Well, duh. I mean, whoda guessed?) And the Arctic keeps melting. As do glaciers. And the oceans keeps getting more acidic, becaue it acts as as a carbon sink, sucking in about half the excess CO2 we keep pumping into the atmosphere every year. And the rising CO2 levles make the Arctic warmer (that's science. It's been known since Arrhenius discovered the greenhouse effect more than a century ago), which melts the ice in the Arctic Sea, which reflected heat back into space, which open water, with a higher albedo doesn't, which makes a high pressure zone over the Arctic Sea, which pushes on the Jetstream and disrupts its smooth flow which normally contains the cold Arctic winds which circle the north pole, letting them come farther south. Which is why we've frozen our asses this winter in the Polar Vortex. So it's deniers like you, coldjoint, that's meant I've had to shovel my car out of goddamned snowbanks an average of more than once a week since December. Do me a favor, peddle your phony science somewhere else. Like Venus (which is the victim of the greenhouse effect when it runs amok)..

Barack Obama is no stranger to hypocrisy and he clearly knows how stupid his base is. He knows they won’t remember anything he says from one day to the next. They certainly won’t remember what he said last year, so Obama zombies, pay attention.


One way of putting it.

All this time telling you about his(Obama) lies and you people just do not remember.
