Lol. Your first post and you're beating up on poor Julie. Her story just killed you folks, didn't it? It's amazing watching the left to go all out to destroy her...that's when you know how deep an impact it had.

No it's called fact checking. Her story was false and she refused to accept it when the facts were shown to her.

Now now, you know we're just supposed to blindly accept anything that makes ACA look bad. Like that lie in the Republicans' SOTU response that was trivially disproven by a quick visit to Washington's health insurance exchange site, or the lie involving this lady.

How did checking to see if a story is actually true morph into "beating up" and "destroying"?

And while we're at it, if ACA is so horrible, why does the right have such a habit of loudly, publicly screeching stories that turn out to be false? Surely it'd be easy to find people with legitimate harm to complain about.

Damage is done dude, now you're just playing catch-up. Accusing her of lying ala Harry Reid just makes Democrats look heartless and waging a war on women.

Remarkable, ain't it?

Boonstra said Monday her new plan she dislikes is the Blue Cross Premier Gold health care plan, which caps patient responsibility for out-of-pocket costs at $5,100 a year, lower than the federal law’s maximum of $6,350 a year. It means the new plan will save her at least $1,200 compared with her former insurance plan she preferred that was ended under Obamacare’s coverage requirements.[LEFT]

When advised of the details of her Blues’ plan, Boonstra said the idea that it would be cheaper “can’t be true.”
“I personally do not believe that,” Boonstra said.

Even when it saves their lives AND bank accounts, some Conservatives seem to want death before Pres. Obama's help...so sad.
Before you go yukking it up, I suggest you go through all of these links. I bet you won't, because they don't say what you want them to say, but let's pretend that you might actually do so:

It will take you some time, but it's Sunday...why not. Go grab a beverage, get comfy, and start reading/watching.

Then come back and here and tell us how hilarious it all is.

Well, thank you for at least admitting that when it comes to the ACA, as far as the right is concerned the truth is inconsequential. That perpetrating lies about the law is fine as long as it serves your purpose. We all knew that anyway, but it's refreshing to see someone on the right admit it outright.

Ah hahaha. The truth is inconsequential! That's precious. You wrote that with a straight face, did you now? The whole damn ACA was a lie, you forgot that little fact didn't you? You forgot this too Lie of the Year: 'If you like your health care plan, you can keep it' | PolitiFact

You know full well Obamacare NEVER would have passed if the public had been told the truth about it. Everything Obama and the Democrats told us about the ACA was a lie - why do you think 2010 happened? Why do you think 2014 is going to sweep Democrats out of the Senate?

The truth is inconsequential - you nitwits have some nerve.

The average family will save $2500 a year, we will insure everyone while creating $1T in additional federal revenues to cut the debt, blah blah blah

By contrast, the Blues’ plan premium costs $571 a month or $6,852 for the year. Since out-of-pocket costs are capped at $5,100 for in-network doctors and hospitals, including deductibles, the maximum Boonstra would pay this year for all of her cancer treatment is $11,952.
