Thanks Barack Obama … In North Dakota Only 30 People Sign Up for Obamacare While 35,000 Lose Their Health Insurance

GOOD GRIEF … In North Dakota, 30 people sign up for Obamacare as 35,000 will or already have lost their healthcare insurance.

More examples of the failures of Obamacare and the “law of intended” circumstances. According to the South Dakota insurance commission a pathetic 30 individuals have signed up for Obamacare. However, a whopping 35,000 people are, or will be, losing their existing health insurance, because of Obamacare. So much for keeping your healthcare insurance if you like it.

The state’s largest health insurer, Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota, covers about 31,600 members – 17,000 in small groups and 14,600 individuals – whose insurance plans are being discontinued.That combined figure represents 8 percent of the North Dakota Blues’ 400,000 membership total.

Medica sent notices affecting 3,173 members that their policies are being discontinued and informing them of their options.

The Sanford Health Plan sent discontinuation notices to about 450 members, all individuals, whose insurance plans did not meet the new coverage qualifications, which begin to take effect Jan. 1.That represents about 50 percent of the Sanford plan’s individual policyholders in North Dakota, said Ruth Krystopolski, president of the Sanford Health Plan.

The Weekly Standard:

“New information tonight, on the number of North Dakotans signing up for health insurance, under the state’s federally-run marketplace,” says the local reporter. “The insurance commission says just 30-people have signed up so far.”

“Three insurance companies are doing business in the marketplace: Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medica, and Sanford. Those 3 companies say more than 35,000 people are, or will be, losing their existing health insurance, because of Obamacare.”

Barack Obama Admitted in 2010 White House Summit on Obamacare that 8 or 9 Million Americans Would Lose Health Care Plans

President Barack Obama admitted to Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) and other House Republicans in 2010 in a White House summit on Obamacare after being questioned about people losing their insurance that 8 to 9 million Americans would lose their healthcare plans. During his condescending comments, Obama said that government makes decisions to protect consumers with bi-partisan support. The only problem is that there was no bi-partisan support for Obamacare, it was passed with not one GOP vote in the House or Senate.

President Barack Obama admitted in 2010 that 8 or 9 million Americans would lose their existing health insurance plans under Obamacare.

“The 8 to 9 million people that you refer to that might have to change their coverage — keep in mind out of the 300 million Americans that we’re talking about — would be folks who the CBO, Congressional Budget Office, estimates would find the deal in the exchange better,” Obama said to Rep. Eric Cantor at a February 25, 2010 White House summit on health insurance regulation.

The money line in the above video from Obama comes at the 2:15 mark “… because what we don’t want is a situation in which people think they are getting one thing and they’re getting something else.  They’re harmed by a product.” Obama went on to say what we see is consistent abuses by the insurance companies and people helpless to deal with it. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! So what happens when Barack Obama does a “bait & switch” with Obamacare and the American people are helpless to deal with it?

The intended consequences of Obamacare is that millions of Americans have had their insurance plans canceled and thrown off their existing health plans and are learning the harsh reality that deals in the Obamacare exchanges to be not better, but actually much, much worse.

He Just Doesn’t Care … Barack Obama Stays Overnight in Florida to Play Golf as Millions of Americans Lose Their Insurance Because of Obamacare

FROM THE GOLFER IN CHIEF: LET THEM EAT THEIR CANCELED INSURANCE POLICIES …

Talk about a detached, cold fish president. As millions of Americans lose their insurance thanks to Obamacare, President Barack Obama goes golfing yet again. How is it possible some one could be so uncaring, so devoid of compassion and so clueless as while millions of Americans get insurance cancellation notices, after Obama had promised that if they liked their healthcare plan they could keep it, he goes golfing. The Obamacare website Healthcare.gov is a complete disastrous joke, the Obamacare policies are a lie and individuals are in turmoil, yet this rodeo clown goes golfing. Obama provided a faux-apology Thursday night to the American people who have been affected by his lies, yet Obama still thinks as Americans suffer due to his actions, he just goes golfing. But hey, he is really sorry America.

Sorry, but there is something seriously not right with an individual who acts like nothing is wrong, when nothing is going right.

Shhh, don’t tell anyone I really could give a hoot about the middle class, or Americans in general

President Obama appears to have remained overnight in Miami – incurring extra costs for taxpayers – just to play golf in the Florida sunshine.

Obama headed out this morning to the exquisite Grande Oaks Golf Club in Fort Lauderdale, a trip that required a half hour motorcade from his hotel his Miami. And it will be well worth the trip, at least for him. According to the course website:

As the Washington Times points out this is the 150th round of golf for Obama in 5 years.

Barack Obama, the Narcissist in Chief Says Says “I’ve Been Burned” By Obamacare Website … Dude, You are Not the Victim, the American People Are (Update: Obama Does Not Think He Lied)

What else should we expect from Barack Obama, the Narcissist in Chief ? For Obama its all about him, as he uses the words like “I” and “me”. This president just can’t help himself. Obama was supposed to be making an apology to “We the People” for the disastrous roll-out of Obamacare, for millions for people losing their insurance, for the misrepresentation and lies that Obama spewed regarding his signature piece of legislation, but instead he made himself the victim and then tried to catch himself.

During Barack Obama’s interview with NBC Political Director Chuck Todd Thursday night NBC’s Nightly News, President Obama said that “I’ve been burned by a website.” I? Excuse me Mr. President, you have been burned by the Healthcare.gov, really? This is exactly why no one considers Obama a leader and why thy refer to him as leading from behind. How does it even cross his mind as the first thing to say that he has been burned?

From News Busters:

BARACK OBAMA: I am deeply frustrated about how this website has not worked over the first couple of weeks. And, I take responsibility of that. My team takes responsibility of that. And we are working every single day, 24/7, to improve it. And it’s better now than it was last week. It’s certainly a lot better than it was on October 1st. Having said that, given that I’ve been burned already with a website–well, more importantly the American people have been burned by a website that’s been dysfunctional, what we’ve also been doing is creating a whole other set of tracks, making sure that people can apply by phone effectively, making sure people can apply in person effectively.

Who cares about the stupid website that wen all is said and done will probably cost tax payers $1 billion, Americans are pissed that you knowingly lied to them about being able to keep their doctor if they liked their doctor, being able to keep their health insurance if they liked their health care coverage and lowering costs. Barack Obama has a huge credibility problem and it will most likely sink his presidency and Democrats.

UPDATE I: NBC Political Director Chuck Todd Interviewed by Hugh Hewitt … Todd said, “You know, he does not believe he lied on this, and that’s the sense I get.”

So the serial liar thinks that he did not lie. Some are using the term “pathological” liar to describe Obama, but I have to disagree. A pathological liar is defined as an individual who frequent and repeated lies for which no apparent psychological motive or external benefit can be discerned. What Barack Obama does is perform regular lies, ones that are goal-directed and are told to obtain external benefit.  Obama is not lying, according to Obama, he is just following the teachings of Saul Alinsky of saying one thing and doing another. These lies were purposeful and with a designed outcome.

You know, he does not believe he lied on this, and that’s the sense I get. I mean, I think that that’s, he’s taken issue with that before with folks off the record, and I got it’s a sensitive issue, felt like he did not sit there and say he intentionally lied. He said that he wanted to, he thought he was going to be able to keep this promise. I thought what was revealing in that answer, when I asked him that direct question about this, was this a political lie that you started to believe it, was he talked about well, you know, it turns out we had trouble in crafting the law.

However, the American people know he lied, those who have lost their instance and cannot keep their doctors. Many of which are Democrats. So the real question is, what do we do with a president who lies and its not about sex? Answer … IMPEACH!!!

Cathy Wagner, Colorado Woman Who Championed Obamacare Loses Insurance Plan Because of Obamacare

Oh the irony … More Obamacare Buyer’s Remorse.

Cathy Wagner, a Colorado woman who championed Obamacare is among the 250,000 Coloradans who have had their insurance plans canceled because of Obamacare. Now she is shocked that her policy was canceled after her hero Barack Obama promised, “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor PERIOD! If you like your health care plan you will be able to keep your healthcare plan PERIOD! No one will take it away, no matter what!”   Guess what Cathy, Obama lied! Yup, Cathy Wagner was among the millions of “useful idiots” who voted for Barack Obama and inflicted this disastrous healthcare plan upon the rest of us. Sorry if I don’t feel sorry for Cathy and her husband, only amazed that anyone could have been so foolishly ignorant to have believe believed, one they could be promised to keep their plan and two, that the prices would be more affordable. Just who did she think was going to pay for all of these uninsured, high risk, low income individuals?

Don’t say you were not warned over and over and over.

Hat Tip: James D. Hudnall-Mayerik, one of the very first bloggers I followed way, way back in the day

The Colorado Division of Insurance says 250,000 people in Colorado alone have lost their policies in the last few months.

Cathy Wagner says she isn’t political and has never written a lawmaker, much less the president, but with Obamacare she felt compelled.

“I really just wanted him to know … I was so hopeful that this plan was going to move us forward, but in fact I think it’s moving us backward,” Wagner said.

Wagner and her husband retired early. She was a nurse for 35 years and championed Obamacare, until she received a letter from her insurance company saying it was canceling her policy.

“I was really shocked … all of my hopes were sort of dashed,” Wagner said. “’Oh my gosh President Obama, this is not what we hoped for, it’s not what we were told.’ “

She was shocked further to learn that for the same coverage she would pay 35 percent more and have a higher deductible.

“Our premium for next year is going up to over $1,000 a month for two of us and we’re two fairly healthy individuals,” Wagner said.

Hey Cathy, they don’t call him the Lion Lying King for nothing.

A note to Cathy, her husband and the rest of the Obama true believers … not only are you losing your current health insurance that you liked and was affordable, for more costly lesser insurance, but Barack Obama and the Democrats knew you would a long time ago and still lied to you because they needed your vote for reelection and the implementation of this frigging nightmare called Obamacare. But as Doug Powers at Michelle Malkin.com opines, the saying needs to be revised to “…born every couple of seconds.”
