That Florida woman's canceled Blue Cross policy? It's junk insurance. She can get a real plan for only $165 a month

.Did you recently get a notice saying that your insurance company is canceling your policy because it doesn't meet the new health law's higher standards? Thousands of people are, and many are angry about it. But before you rush to judgement, it might not be as bad as it seems. Conisder the case of Diane Barrette, a 56-year-old woman from Winter Haven, Fla. Her story was featured in this CBS News report and endlessly echoed on the Internet. She was upset because Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida was canceling her $54-a-month “GoBlue plan 91” and offering to replace it with a $591-a-month “Blue Options Essential plan.” Sounds terrible—except that Barrette’s expiring policy is a textbook example of a junk plan that isn’t real health insurance at all. If she had ever tried to use it for anything more than an occasional doctor visit or inexpensive prescription, she would have ended up with tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars of medical debt. Here are some of the gory detai...

Romney: 'If We Want to Get Rid of Obamacare, We're Going to Have to Replace President Obama'

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney reacted to the Supreme Court's Obamacare decision by saying that, "if we want to get rid of Obamacare, we're going to have to replace President Obama." "Let’s make clear that we understand what the Court did and did not do," Romney said today, speaking in Washington, D.C. "What the Court did today was say that Obamacare does not violate the Constitution. What they did not do was say that Obamacare is good law or that it's good policy." Romney added: "Obamacare was bad policy yesterday. It's bad policy today. Obamacare was bad law yesterday. It’s bad law today." This presidential election is "a choice," Romney said. "You can choose whether you want to have a larger and larger government, more and more intrusive in your life—separating you and your doctor—whether you're comfortable with more deficits, higher debt that we pass onto the coming generations. Whether...

We have some Government in the U.S.A.

On February 25, 2010 our president will be in a meeting with officials from both parties, discussing a health bill that the U.S.A. does not want. The president will be at this meeting from 10a.m. till 4p.m. The U.S.A. is in a recession with high unemployment. We have troops all over the world. We are in two wars. Our government wants to talk health bill. Why? The proposed government health bill does nothing for prescriptions. So what is it they will be talking about? Our government is involved in almost every facet of our life. They are involved in most business except our health and now want the ability to dictate what care we may get. What does health care have to do with our government? Nothing! If our citizens want health care then let them decide in a free market what to get.

Concerning Pres. Obama's school speech

While it is true that a lot of presidents spoke at separate schools and school rooms , this is the first time that a president will speak to all the schools at the same time. As it is no surprise that I am not an Obama supporter by the same token I think or I believe that we should support president Obama and not shut him out from speaking to our school age children. After all present Obama is our president he is the President of the United States. I like every American, does not want anything to happen to this president. I like every American wishes of this president the best. I like every American recognizes something were to happen to this president all hell would break loose in our society. Therefore it is imperative that nothing happens to our president and he is respected for being our president. I cannot agree however with all of this a bailout and so on I cannot agree with this president blessings on Ramadan a Muslim holiday and covering Jesus during a visit to a church. I cann...

#tcot and #fltcot Not true!

I keep hearing members of the media saying: "President Obama said that if the economic stimulus bill was passed, unemployment would not go over 8%." As a matter of fact, I heard Sen. "Waterloo" say that TODAY on a Sunday morning show, unchallenged by either the host or the person sitting next to him. There is one small problem with this statement . . . it is simply NOT TRUE. When are we going to stand up!

NOT APPROVE THE OBAMA TAKEOVER OF YOUR HEALTH CARE

In order to get this so-called "Health Care Reform" accepted by bobbleheads, this administration has just lied and so have the incompetent media. The major causes for high health care/insurance costs are twofold: 1. Treating illegal aliens free because they have no coverage and no money and then having them turn around and sue hoping for that big payday in the sky 2. The ridiculous law suits that are no-win for health care workers. Aliens and ambulance chasing lawyers were bankrupting hospitals, especially in the border states, for the last several years. However, if you read the bill before the House now, it says right in the summary that the national health care plan will cover ALL RESIDENTS of the United States. RESIDENTS, not citizens. That means that the money YOU spend, the money YOU pay is going to pay for some illegal person to have health care at your expense, just so Pelosi and Obama can get the latino votes. Further, illegals bog down the health care system ...
