I bet they are all old and sick!

I'll bet they are NOT ALL old and sick. I'll also bet that more are over age 45 than under age 35 and that more are poor and on Medicaid than with private insurance. Though you don't care about those types of ratios, most others understand why they matter for evaluating Ocare.

Will there be more or less people insured in California on January 1 than there were this year?

You already know the answer...

So, you're asserting that Obama and Reid conspired with the Heritage Foundation? Do you not remember that Obamacare is all on Obama and the Dems?

Tell it to the Washington Post for making this the #1 LIE of 2013.
Nothing "unbelievable" about that …. unless you are referring to the Random Act of Journalism.

Congrats, sick! Post of the year, 2013.

Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. Kennedy

We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Roosevelt

If you like your plan, you can keep it. Obama

Study these words, their background, historical context, and role in shaping the public perception of the president. Then you will understand why they will live forever.
