Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers posted an image on her official Facebook page, slamming the Affordable Care Act on the fifth anniversary of President Obama signing it into law. She asked constituents to share their Obamacare nightmare stories and well, the response probably wasn't what she expected. See all of the comments left on her Facebook page at the address below:
Mr Obvious says to them “look, you fricking Jack Asses!”
Seems there are an awful lot of her constituents who love Obamacare and don't have the “Horror Stories” she was so hoping to get! Seems she was bombarded with positive stories about Obamacare, which should be obvious to anyone, who isn't living in a cave!
Just thinking of all the people, who will have health insurance, don't have to be worried about Pre-Existing, or life time maxes, should be obvious to a sensible, logical person. Of course then were talking about Republicans, who hate President Obama so much, I think mainly because he's black, they don't want to admit he did something great.
Why aren't you working with the Democrats to help solve the problems, which are creating some of the “Horror Stories”, which you are claiming there is out there? Why have you decided to slam it, every chance you get? It should be obvious, with all the people signing up, who now have health insurance, they are thrilled to now have medical coverage. They no longer have to risk going bankrupt and losing all they have worked so hard for or trying to get by, because they are broke, from medical bills and no one will insure them.
Take time to ask your own constituents, who voted you in, feeling you were best qualified to look after them and pass whatever legislation is needed to help them. Did you ever think to ask them to let you know what they thought of Obamacare, instead of asking them for their “Horror Stories”, so you can take their new healthcare away from them?
What would they think of you, if they lost everything, maybe even having family members die, because you hate President Obama so much, you don't want to give him credit, for getting health insurance for the majority of the uninsured people, a tremendous number of them, your constituents?
How will you explain to them the only hospital, which serves their area has to either shut down the Emergency Room or file bankruptcy, because all the people without insurance have been using the Emergency Room? In case you are brain dead, the Emergency Room not only charges a tremendous amount, for their services, but you have to wait several hours to be seen, by a medical professional!
These huge bills piled on your constituents not only put them in jeopardy of losing everything, but it also puts the hospital in jeopardy of having to close, so your constituents no longer have a place to go.
Did you read how many hospitals, are now seeing more patients, with insurance and far fewer, in the Emergency Room, without insurance and are actually making money and not having to write so much off? Did you know, in the old system, hospitals charged more to patients, with insurance, to make up for the money they had to write off, because your constituents did not have the money to pay them?
Did you know, now hospitals don't have so many bad debts to write off, so they have no justification to raise the charges, for their procedures? If they don't need to raise the rates, for the procedures, don't it stand to reason, the insurance company shouldn't be paying as much out, so they also would not have justification, to raise their premiums? Of course that is thinking logically and we all know Republicans don't know what that is!
If Obamacare is so bad, why are so many more Insurance Companies interested in being part of Obamacare, thus creating competition and lowering the insurance premiums?
The “sky high rate increases”, which they predicted would hit people, in their 2nd year rates also proved wrong. Some people saw a slight raise in their premiums, but many saw their premiums go down.
No matter what you actually see and hear, about the good things about Obamacare and how even your own constituents love it, you still try to slam it as much as you can, hoping your lies will dissuade your constituents from loving Obamacare. What are your constituents going to say to you, if you get your way, repeal Obamacare and millions of people lose their health insurance, millions of them, in your own district? Do you think they are going to thank you and vote for you again?
Those jackasses voted to repeal Obamacare again? How many more times are they going to try to do this, when their own constiuents love Obamacare? Are they deaf & blind, to their own constituents, when they see the billionaires and millionaires flash the cash, in front of their eyes?
“Thank you, thank you so much! I love your money! Can I have more?”
“Sure there is plenty more, where that came from! You do know you will have to pass favorable legislation for that, don't you?”
“Oh yes, yes, anything you say, just give me more money!”
There's plenty more where that came from, you just keep doing as we say and you will have plenty of cash, for your election campaigns!
You can keep running those negative ads drowning out those goody 2 shoe Democrats. Don't pay attention to your constituents back home. You know what's good for them. Just keep publishing all those horror stores about Obamacare, even if you have to make some up. They don't know any better, they'll believe anything you tell them!
