Thank God he's focused on the economy like a laser beam...

My new choices? Well, I do not qualify for a subsidy. There are four insurance companies that sell individual insurance in our country now. Others had to pull out - something you see all over this country now due to Obamacare. I need a PPO because my daughter had an incredibly rare tumor in her head that less than five doctors in this country can deal with. That narrowed by choice to one company. Closest is the gold plan even though the coverage, out of pocket, and deductibles are worse. My max out of pocket now is $10,000. Even though it's a PPO, it's not a true PPO. You're only true in-network for one hospital. Anyone else, including the doctors, is considered a second tier in-network with even higher out of pockets costs.
Given my costs annually, I've done the math. I get worse coverage now for about $9,800 more out of pocket per year. Yes, I hit the max out of pocket every year. Ever dealt with a tumor in your head? You hit the out of pocket maximums when you do.
So, that's TOTAL crap that my plan was bad. It was flipping great and for you to come on here and continue to spout these lies is disgusting. To sum it up, you're wrong!
sorry to hear about your daughter, i assume the tumor is inoperable? too many people across the country are getting screwed by the obamacare law, and perhaps are having second thoughts about bashing republicans for their constant efforts to stop the law. us conservatives told you many times, be careful what you wish for as you may just get it, well you got it, now deal with it. people like southbel are the ones getting hurt badly by this stupid unworkable law, and it is going to get worse over time. its still not too late to eliminate this stupid law and do one right, but even that time is coming.

Something still stinks.. (other than Obamacare itself).
Someone's pulling his strings... He may end up being the "fall-guy" but the real-power players (whoever they are) won't quit. Wondering if him falling on his sword wasn't part of the larger plan to begin with?
Now.. he can say... okay.. it failed... people have lost their insurance. I'll take the blame but the only option now is single-payer....
The man has proved over and over again, he's nothing more than a political puppet... He wasn't experienced enough as a politician to pull this off by himself.....

No, it's operable. Just the kind that likes to come back again and again. Five surgeries now in the last year. So, you can see why having access to these doctors is critical for someone like my daughter. At this point, it's not even about cost, it's about access and Obamacare has significantly reduced our access.

the only way obama can fall on his sword is to resign from office. as for the rest, we really havent had a persident that didnt have their strings pulled since JFK was assassinated. imo reagan was the one that had his strings pulled the least, and even then his were pulled. and yes i know what i am saying, the US government was overthrown in 1963 after kennedy was assassinated.

I'm just thinking that he's on stall tactics from his handlers while his Obot's circle the wagons. By this time tomorrow we'll be deluged with them and their written scripts about how "noble" he was to admit he was wrong....

that may happen, but it may also be the straw the broke the camels back as well. i think it might be the latter because he couldnt even get the apology right. but i could be wrong.
Perhaps congressional republicans could work with him to resolve the issue. You know, do something good for the country instead of just whining like children.
How would you suggest they force him to not lie?
