Obama Signs Up For Health Care, Selects ‘Bronze’ Plan---What a Phoney (Christmas, premium)

[gretsky99]

Didn't sign-up his wife, Michelle, nor his daughters.....

Obama signs up for health care, selects ‘bronze’ plan in D.C. exchange

[michiganmoon]

But he isn't forfeiting his great health care he gets for being president?

Just a needless publicity stunt so less people will complain about Obamacare. Now people can't say Obama isn't even on Obamacare.

No, this is all "symbolic." Obama will pay the premiums until he is out of office (but not actually use the insurance), and continue to receive medical care through the military.

He's a piece of ****. Sadly, there are other pieces of **** (ie. liberals) who will see this and think "Gee! The President is one of us!"

[Rakin]

I wonder if his doctor is on his plan ?

[MissTerri]

Ridiculous! He is only adding fuel to the fire, further adding to the anger and pain of those who actually did or will lose their current plan and cannot or will not be able to afford the Bronze plan. He must really think people are stupid if he thinks we are going to fall for this ridiculous ploy.

[emcee squared]

And if he would've selected a different plan, or no plan at all, you wouldn't have complained about it?

[jasper12]

Stupid. And confusing, as other government workers, will wonder if they are supposed to sign up for insurance.

He didn't even sign up. His staff did it while he vacations in Hawaii.
He might as well signed up for a gold plan since he'll never need or use it.

I guess being a Bronze plan enrollee he relates more to us commoners.

Obama's entire career has been one needless publicity stunt after another. When you are of no substance, do nothing of substance, and cannot even think of anything that is both POSITIVE and of substance, then needless publicity stunts and self-congratulatory kabuki theater are your stocks in trade. Luckily for Obama, he has charisma and plays apathetic monarch to a country that by percentage of population leads the world in comfort based ignorance and stupidity.

It's Christmas Eve, take a break from griping about Obama. The move was only symbolic, he already is covered by the military as he should be, as are his family. It wasn't to prove anything. It was simply symbolic that the ACA went through and is now open and running. Now go enjoy the day!
